Vape Shop Owner Refuses to Close - "#WeWillNOTComply"

[Javichu]

It is scary to look at the future.
As of today the spanish PIB (GDP) will take atleast 1.5 to 2 years to get to the numbers we had before all this happened,and let me say that they werent in a good place back then so yeah,that is one thing.

Apart from that well summer is coming close and here in Spain that is huge thing when it comes to tourism (national and international) and the way it keeps on going i dont think this summer will be any good.

But to be honest what saddens me the most is people in the nursing homes,so far as of the 3rd of april we lost 3.600 people that were in nursing homes,add another 2.000 or so because those 3.600 are just a ''ballpark'' figure.

It is sad because these older folks worked all their lifes,they deserve a retirement where they can relax,do activities and enjoy whatever time they have left.
Add insult to injury most of the families of the deceased cant even say a proper goodbye or even receive a proper burial.

I know that in the general scheme of things those may seem like small numbers but things like this just hit me hard.

In Pennsylvania, the liquor stores, tobacco stores, and vape shops are closed. They even closed a drive through convenience store that sold essentials like bread, milk, eggs, coffee, and yes, cigarettes. That was about the safest store to go to because the customers are in their car and the clerk is inside. You just put your card on the counter at the bottom of the window, they pick it up, put your stuff on the counter and back up. Distance is maintained. Our governor Wolf is a firm believer in government knows best.

I understand stores refusing cash, but that's a troubling development. Honestly I don't use cash much anyway, but it should remain legal tender. Once I lost my card, cancelled it, and went to the bank to get a week's worth of cash until the new card came in. Yeah, cash money can carry germs, but you can always launder it ( ). I don't want to see this country going the way of china with their social ranking system, and everybody using their phones to pay for everything. China is already blocking people who have a bad social reputation from buying plane, train, and bus tickets, and even consumer goods. My son was teaching English in China last year and it was too much for him, even as a millennial Bernie Sanders supporter.

Don't get me started on the millennials. Their going to be running this show soon, and with their wokenness, shaming, ignorance of history, etc., we will be trending towards what China is doing. I don't want this virus to serve as a catalyst for a cultural revolution in this country. I still have a few years left and will do everything I can to slow that trend down. History is full of wrong turns and I hope it doesn't happen till after I'm gone. How's that for a classic boomer attitude?

That only works if you
A) put a wall around your county and
B) wait a week or more to be sure you have no ACTUAL cases (rather than just confirmed ones).

And then, you can all run around inside your bubble until you run out of supplies.

Otherwise, if you "stay open", that's how you spread CV-19. Because you won't be at zero for long.

We can't stay locked down until they come up with a vaccine. The county just south of ours is hard hit and just south of that is Dallas/Fort Worth. Despite that, we have no cases. This is a rural county with nothing here. Once travel starts up again, I'm sure we'll see our first case, but the public health officials will be able to do testing, contact tracking, and quarantining. That is what is required for reopening the economy.

Best post i have read in a long time and it mirrors my thoughts on the matter.
What kills me is the dehumanization of society,no words exchanged with a stranger at the bus stop,no good morning or good afternoon,just mindless drones glued to the screens of their smartphones.

At least mother nature and natural selection is on our side,kid gets run over while playing pokemon go....influencer falls off a cliff while taking a selfie.
dont get me wrong i do not celebrate that people get hurt but gee come on,every time i read news about something like that happening it reminds me of the movie idiocracy:



You talk about millennials but im even more afraid for the generation after that,kids throwing a tantrum and the parents to busy to educate them and teach them manners so they just give them a laptop or smartphone and that way they will stop crying...yeah good parenting right there

Addiction to social media in my honest opinion is mind cancer,people is forgetting about human in person interactions and they are getting to used to sharing their life with the world like if it's that interesting.

I agree with that. But for a short duration, anyway, lockdowns are a good idea. IMHO.

I agree too. And for the time being I'll stay in my hidey-hole. But it doesn't seem fair to close the vape shops and keep the smoke shops open.

I don't disagree with that either. We closed both in MI. FYI.

They closed both here in TX too, but not the liquor stores. I guess Governor Abbott drinks but doesn't smoke or vape.

We still await an AIDS vaccine and AIDS has been killing people since the very early 1980's. We can treat it relatively effectively but no vaccine for forty years. Waiting for a vaccine as the standard, I think, is out of the question.

Here in KY, Wallmart is completely open selling clothes and everything else. The local clothing stores [most are locally owned] are closed. Maybe the locals should start selling milk as well as everything else. The bigs have won, the littles are losing.

They've worked on an HIV vaccine, but the virus mutates too much. There are dozens of strains of it.

He's governor. If he runs out of his booze, he'll get more, stores closed or not.

True, they have been working for nearly forty years. I still think that setting the "opening" of the country to be an effective vaccine standard is not a viable option. It is far to indefinite.

You know that I'm not a medical professional, so kiss off.

It is the internet, anyone can be anything. Heck, I play that I am a genius on here while ignoring all evidence to the contrary.

If you in dire need of a ''release'' after beer drinking that can also be considered relief,just saying
