In Texas?

One in NYC one in Italy, the rest in Texas. 2 more if you count my student's relatives here in Texas

I'm not saying that's evidence of how bad this is. But just know that it is very real and affecting some people

My current doctor (and also a customer) was the doctor to treat the first covid patient in Tarrant county. He then had to self quarantine for 14 days and subsequently missed the birth of his first granddaughter in Tennessee. I was in his office doing blood work about one week prior to the first covid patient 3/3. That woke me up and made me realize this **** is real. When I drop by his office about every other week to check the property he's outside doing patient consults while they're in the car and he's covered head to toe.

Clay wants another lockdown:

I dont know about the panty raid thing (that should be looked into deeper) but the other things mentioned about him were just good ol fashioned "fun" back in the day. It was more of less expected that young men would get themselves in trouble with hijinx similar to this. Akin to how getting into fights was considered the manly thing to do. Times change.
So, I dont know why it even matters.

Soooo....:where does Dallas Co/ Jenkins get off mandating schedules to ISD's

I support Judge Jenkins and another round of "stay home, stay safe."

There won't be an economy to worry about if we're all sick or dead.

There won't be an economy to worry about when all of the businesses move to the suburbs.

Then Jenkins and his crew will blame white flight

It won't be just white flight. See Desoto, Duncanville, and Red Oak. Minorities are fleeing Dallas as well.

Insightful article

https://www.dmagazine.com/publications/d-magazine/2014/october/who-is-dallas-county-judge-clay-jenkins/

Whole thing sheds light on who we're dealing with here, but the highlight is -

"In college at Baylor, Jenkins continued to distinguish himself dubiously. He was arrested twice, once for reckless driving after he led Baylor security and Waco police on a car chase he'd planned and a second time for criminal trespassing in a women's dorm during a panty raid. Strangely enough, he was never arrested for his role as the famous Baylor Pie Man, a hit man for a student-organized ring that offered to throw pies in people's facesprofessors, ex-boyfriendsfor a fee."

Bump

He is an elected official, I have a hard time feeling sorry for anyone in Dallas County since this is what you voted for. Move if you don't like your government, there are plenty of other options in DFW that are more conservative.
