America Hunkers down

The national (well, worldwide) hysteria over coronavirus marches on.

Idiots are still hoarding up multiple packages of toilet paper. This is for a 14-day virus that is respiratory, not intestinal. Do you really think you're going to use 50 rolls of toilet paper in two weeks?! Jeez! 

People are being urged to "hunker down" until the virus passes (whenever that'll be) since many stores are changing their hours or just closing down. Many states (New Mexico, for instance) have closed state parks to overnight camping, but allowing day use.

Democrat-run cities are enacting "Emergency Powers" acts allegedly to cope with the virus. Funny thing, these acts are all almost identical. These are nothing less than martial law acts. How is banning gun, ammo and gasoline sales going to help? All this is for a virus that has killed about 50 people in the U.S.

They're going by Rahm Emanuel's motto, "Don't let a crisis go to waste!"

USA Today reported:

The race to get home was in full swing Sunday for Americans abroad amid a national state of emergency and U.S. travel bans that fueled long lines at entry points for some major airports. 

The weekend brought more vitally important news on the coronavirus front: President Trump tested negative for the virus and the U.S. expanded its European travel ban to include the United Kingdom and Ireland. Stores and supermarkets curbed hours or shut down all together. Cities and states tightened restrictions. 

Almost 3,000 coronavirus cases have been confirmed in the U.S., with a death toll of more than 50. Globally, more than 150,000 cases and almost 6,000 deaths have been reported. In Hoboken, New Jersey, the mayor has enacted a curfew and ordered restaurants to shut their dining rooms. Walmarts and many grocery stores are limiting their hours. Nike and Urban Outfitters are closing their stores worldwide.
