The blue plate special was “The Suicidal Rapturer Burger” with a Clorox martini on the rocks.

The problem is that the deplorables eventually come into contact with the non-deplorables.

Tagging President Donald Trump on Twitter, the restaurant said in a tweet Saturday that it was “standing for America, small businesses, the Constitution and against the overreach of our governor in Colorado!!”

“Attention!” read a sign on C&C’s front window. “Our freedom doesn’t end where your fear begins. If you are scared stay at home! If you are afraid to be within 6ft of another person do not enter this business!”

I REALLY hope this sh*thead remembers this in about 3-4 weeks time. If it turns out that a couple of dozen people fall ill and it can be directly attributed to gathering at C&C Coffee, this person’s reputation & business will take a serious hit.

But hey, freedom.

I’m sure C&C is prepared for the inevitable lawsuits coming when their patriot customers are afflicted with the virus.

I save my empathy for those who don’t deliberately try to get us all killed.

Yes sir. All of a sudden, “solidarity” goes out the window when the sound of coins are heard in the distance.

Find out where these people work and place posts on social media warning shoppers not to enter those businesses.

So…does one of the “Cs” in C&C Coffee stand for Covid…or just congenitally stupid?

Meh, I’m generally fine with this self-selection stuff. The risk definitely increases with extended periods hanging around people, so passing by the Covidiots in the grocery store is a relatively low-risk activity.

Them all hanging around inside over leisurely get-togethers and not distancing is definitely in the high-risk category.

This is the time to be picking your associates carefully.

Save the video and the pictures. It will help with contact tracing.
The stoopid is really going to hurt this time.

I’m reminded of the Heart Attack Cafe in Vegas. Maybe there’s a marketing niche for Covid cafes?

Throw this in too: about of the third of the country believes there is actually a) a cure for covid-19 and b) a vaccine, but both are being withheld. About a half believe the number of deaths is being inflated. And 44% believe the virus was created in a lab.

Is the moon out all the time now?

There’s this as well:

An emailed threat to the department last week included the line, “you’re about to start a hot-shooting no bulls** civil war.”*

I dunno how well they’ll aim and shoot while coughing up blood and wheezing while feeling like giant rubber bands are contracting around their lungs.
It sounds, though, like they intend to find out.

It only takes one sick person who doesn’t know it to infect the entire place and then those people start infecting others who start infecting others…

Maybe no one who went was sick, but if a bunch of places do this type of thing than the chances only will go up and fast.
