C-19, casinos and smoking.

So. Dakota is scheduled to open casinos today. Other states will follow.

Human exhalation (people exhaust if you want) is the main source of C-19. The more forceful the exhale, the farther it carries virus and it transmits more virus.

Smoking results in a more forceful exhale than does natural breathing. Smokers in casinos will spread more virus than non-smokers.

Take this in consideration when you decide to visit a casino.

any casino. Just send a donation. Really. Let me qualify: send donations to Native nations, not Sheldon Adelson (sp?) or any other corp operating a casino anywhere.

Or maybe.....

We should encourage the dumb living in "dumbfuckistan" to go live life to the fullest. Yes, go open everything up. Consume, shop, go to your favorite restaurant, take a cruise, book a flight to Europe, and by all means book a flight to Vegas, or Biloxi.

Humm, thinking................
Let the lemmings go, yes?

Take cover.
