we're just a hop, skip, and jump from freebasing.

The rapid reopeners, the petty-minded small business owners, the anti-mask protestors will be shunned when this is over, if this is ever over.

I thought Gov. Newsom had this under control, and I don't follow it closely state-by-state ... did he cave to the no-maskers? He didn't have much choice, they weren't following protocol because protocol is not for them, it's for people who want to stay alive. It's better to own the libs than to remain alive, don't you think?
