Hello Tim, hope you and your family are doing well. My main concern is that surrounding cities would also consider the ban....kinda like DOMINOS....

I agree MJ. Would be very surprised if any of the surronding cities of L.A. did not follow there lead. I wonder if NHRA is considering racing in front of empty stands like ML baseball considering games in front of empty stands?

I just have to say...... Rod look at the numbers of people in Michigan , New York that are sick and how quickly its spreading . Look at history . 1918 -1919 Flu Pandemic 675.000 died in the USA alone. I can be a sheep for a while.

Exactly. When was the last time the New York City / North Jersey had more sick people needing hospital beds than there were hospital beds?

HOAX Virus = Mindless Lemming

my 2 cents. This virus has to be taken seriously.read bobby bennett story about his ordeal with the virus.
From what i have seen it is spread by spittle. now, with that said, you cannot be a spectator at a large event without picking up spittle. think of the following touches, railings, elevator buttons, door handles, paying for concessions, person next to you or behind you.
i can see businesses open up with everyone wearing a face covering (to keep spittle to yourself) and pushing social distancing and supplying hand sanitizer and get back to business. big crowds anywhere, not sure when that will happen with out a cure or vaccine

The resiliency of the American people and abilty to adapt to conditions should not be under estimated.

The governor of Michigan telling the citizens of Michigan what they can and can't buy in a store .. Talk about power drunk and probably taking orders from bureaucrats higher up. !! People on both sides of the aisle starting to protest and push back.

One of the biggest problems with this virus is there are still too many unknowns. I live in Ontario Canada and we shut everything down weeks ago. We are now just getting reports that we may see a flattening of the curve on this thing. Hopefully in hind sight we did the right thing . Who really knows.

Same thing we are hearing in Denver and Colorado.

I live in a small town on Lake Mead = a major recreation area.
We rely on users of the National Park for a good portion of our town's
economy. The Park is closed for the last month and many of our
business that have struggled to make the tourist season to
survive are going out of business. The is a shopping center that
I often go to lunch......Over 1/2 the shops are already closed and
EMPTY. The state closed our trailer business for a month and made
us lock out gates. We will survive because we own our property free and
clear. Most others may not get thru this period!

I do not mind wearing a mask and requiring customer to do so AND staying
6 feet apart. We could do sales remotely and deliver the trailers to customers
curb. I am not minimizing the Virus BUT poverty and tough financial times
will KILL a lot more people than it ever will in my opinion.

I would happily take my chances with the Virus = rather than see my Grandchildren
(perhaps for a long time) go without what they need to thrive.

The repercussions of this Recession (Possible Depreciation) will last for a very long time
and be more substantial than you may realize.
