Louisiana is an amazing state and New Orleans is my favorite city. I'm rooting for you guys.
I am a progressive Democrat. Reading the comments on this thread from both true left and the right, with such hate toward other human beings, I find myself at home nowhere in this country. Don’t think someone has a healthy lifestyle, so you wish death upon them? Personally, I would rather die than feel as you do.
What in the hell is wrong with you? I'm hoping you're a child then you at least have a weak excuse for what you said.

you dismissed the virus before and said come back when it had killed 1 in a million total....or even 1 in 100,000.
Well it has killed 1 in 50,000 in Louisiana. In 2 days.
I was talking about the whole world, and not claiming it would never pass 1 in a million, as it was already at about 1 in 2 million at the time. But congratulations, your favorite disease is now tied with epilepsy at 2 per 100,000 for Louisiana. Still less than 1 per 100,000 for the world. Total respiratory infections annually kill 63 per 100,000.
Now, try to analyze your mind. Why do you think "proving me wrong" can turn this disease into the big bad plague you wish it were? Do you not see the broken logic?
2,600 ?????

912 Americans died of COVID-19 yesterday. How many other diseases killed 912 Americans yesterday?
Every possible pandemic or global disaster starts at zero deaths. Wigins and friends think nothing should be done to stop any of them until they reach 60,001 deaths, regardless of how bad they are projected to be.
I think there is some deep-seated anti-science attitude involved. Like sure I'll trust my life to the cars and airplanes, spend all day on their computers and phones, ask them to set my broken bones and irradiate my cancer - but screw 'em the moment they say anything inconvenient.
The first and possibly only voice of reason in this thread.
+1000 Wiggins, excellent post as usual.

The fact that Italy is locked down but experiencing the most deaths should be telling you that logically, a lockdown or quarentine is simply an egregious violation of civil liberties and nothing else.

The death rates are 8-10%, much higher than other states.
Is this because everyone is so unhealthy down there?

Louisiana is a state of good, christian, hardworking, conservative, traditional men and their wives and children.

I have to assume you are being sarcastic here, as your post is also incredibly disrespectful. The phrase "their wives and children" doesn't play very well with most women in the 21st century. How would it sound to you if someone said "good, christian, hardworking, conservative traditional women and their husbands and children?"
Any Christian woman would be perfectly fine with my phrasing, as Christian men are meant to be the leaders of their household, according to Christ.

Lousiana legislature is supermajority Republican. Outside of New Orleans and Baton Rouge, it is a very, very red state. Mega churches are rebelling against shelter in place rules. Mardi Gras set them up for a big exposure and state government waited until it was too late to take action to stop the spread.
Hi Louisiana,
I’m in Arkansas, I guess our time will be coming. Stay strong brothers & sisters, many are fighting alongside you & praying for you.
Had a blast at the N.O. Turkey Trot in 2014. 107th annual! History says, you’re stronger than the virus.
Yeah, they left people to die in their hospitals during Hurricane Katrina. Some to the hands of criminals.
Not buying the blanket of Christian...just take a look at the French Quarter.
