There is no debate: there are going to be almost as many lawsuits as there will be COVID-19 deaths. And, hopefully, Sheriff Billy will be the first to wither away.

ā€œThe fact is, the amount of professionals that give the reason why we should, I can find the exact same amount of professionals that say why we shouldnā€™t,ā€ā€

Seems Billy not Bill not Will not William but Billy has a report to work up.

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, who sued to block Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance-Bottomsā€™ mask mandateā€¦
said he was pleased to see schools reopening, adding that aside from the viral photos the week went real well.

Hey Kempā€¦
Heard the phrase: Donā€™t drink and drive?
Donā€™t over imbibe trumpian kool aid and governā€¦
You are going to kill Americans!

And these are not the core Metro Atlanta county school systems, either.

Cobb, Gwinnett, and Dekalb have all basically shut down ā€œliveā€ reopenings because of outbreaks among administrators just in the preparation for reopenings. Fulton county didnā€™t even bother, they just went straight to remote teaching as their plan.

So, it would probably be fair to say, that as this date, its been an abject failure.
