    There’s gonna be a lot of industry deadly impacted by this. I’m curious how much revenue will be lost.

    If I'm reading that right, the mutation they found is less harmful than the original.

    I'm not sure this is really 'bad news'.

    Yeah, I was wondering about that. I'm not claiming I understand the science (maybe crandc can chime in here), but I think that it's saying that the area of the virus that they are developing vaccine's to block, is changing. If it's still infectious despite that change (which apparently it is because it's still making people sick in India where the mutation was noted), then the vaccines that are currently under development would be useless. Presumably the concern is that if it can mutate this much, it's going to be pretty hard to develop an effective vaccine at all. But, I know not of which I speak, so that may just be gibberish.

    Protesters flood the streets and block traffic outside Michigan's state Capitol to demand Gov. Gretchen Whitmer end her strict stay-at-home orders and chant 'lock her up'
    • Thousands of demonstrators gathered at Michigan's state Capitol building in Lansing on Wednesday
    • They waved American flags and Trump 2020 banners as they descended upon Capitol
    • They demanded Dem. Governor Gretchen Whitmer lift stay-at-home orders saying it violates civil liberties
    • On Thursday Whitmer signed an executive order extending the stay-at-home lockdown through April 30 and imposing new rules banning travel to secondary homes, boat use, and gatherings beyond a single household
    • Michigan has the fourth-biggest outbreak of COVID-19 in the US with over 28,000 cases of the COVID-19 and nearly 2,000 deaths

    fuck those morons

    I have not one bit of respect for any group that thinks it's cool to pack assault weapons around in public. I say that as a well-armed liberal.

    Doesn't look like much of a "flood" to me...looks more like a small mob of mostly union workers wanting to go back to work, like we all do.

    If they try to open up Michigan and or the country before the time is right, the next "wave" of virus victims might well be as bad if not worse, than the first.

    And what's with the show of weapons?....Some people are just too fucking stupid to have a job.

    So, this came up when I searched on Google for an image showing "well armed liberal". Make of it what you will.

    What, you consider several hundred million people hiding in their houses and unable to make a living to be a big deal?
