Ron DeSantis is the governor of Florida, right? I have to look it up. I don't pay attention to ignorant people. I think they are a waste of time.

Yep, Ronald Dion DeSantis. He was probably elected because he was once in the military. He is wrong and his decision to allow danger into Floridians lives by allowing religious services is most likely unconstitutional.


It would fall in the fact there is a national emergency due to a deadly virus. This is not the flu. So, people of conscience need to move against him and seek an injunction on the basis of violation of the national emergency.

That is not a small number. 

Total cases 9008

Current deaths 144

That is a death rate of about 2 percent and it will go up as more and more cases manifest because Florida has engaged stay at home orders very, very late.


New York's current death rate is 3 percent (click here). That is as of today.


I believe given the fact the stay at home only started in Florida a couple of days ago, Florida's death rate will be a larger percentage than New York.

Florida's demographics as late as 2019 is 20 percent age 65 and older. (click here)

New York's demographics as late as 2019 is 16.4 percent of 65 and older (click here).

This is the danger that exists when the government prioritizes religion before life and the real role of government. Floridians should not put a great deal of confidence in a governor that can't even understand the danger of a deadly virus when no one in Florida has immunity.

Someone in Florida needs to sue him for allowing danger in the lives of the people.

I think schools should be close for the rest of the year. They are used to schooling at home by now. The beginning of the school next year will be a fresh start.

Gov. Jay Inslee (click here) is extending his order through May 4 that Washington residents stay at home and non-essential businesses remain closed.

For life to return to normal and the economy to be rebuilt, the governor said Washington must remain committed to social distancing, which means staying at least six feet apart from each other.

“We can’t give up or loosen our efforts in this regard. This is the critical moment -- the next several weeks,” Inslee said earlier Thursday during a question-and-answer session on Twitter.
