It does make South Dakota our vacation destination this summer.  Knowing that things are open for business and restrictions are minimal will make for a relaxing vacation.  

That's where we are headed in June and Colorado for a few days.  Will have to overlook all the pot heads and loons there though.

Interesting direction this thread has taken.

Sadly, a small demonstration in how polarized our country has become.  We now accuse, disparage and demean others based on their views (social, political, etc).

 

Conservatives don't have much of a platform.  Kicked off Twitter, censored by Facebook, Parlor eliminated, etc.  Doesn't leave many platforms to cling to.  

 

Meanwhile the Liberals enjoy a array of media platforms to feel good about themselves.  Take the "moral" high ground and denounce others.

 

Mainstream media and Big Tech have been steering the narrative for years.  Where was the outcry when Russia-Russia-Russia was found to be a hoax?  Nobody seems to care when certain stories were buried last fall.  And now some will praise the same networks who gush, giggle and promote a crackhead whore chaser and his new book.  

 

We've been out of cruising for a long time.  Much has changed.  It will be interesting to see how everyone behaves and treats each other once cruising returns.

 

Imagine...no chair hog complaints.  No judging others by the T-shirt they wear on formal night :-).

Best and most truthful post I've seen on here in a while.

‘My cruise” Would  be anyone’s cruise!  I wish you were smarter and less selfish.  Get the vaccine or stay home with your vulnerable body.  Why would those of us that stayed home for a yea4 and got our vaccines want to sail with you?  I can answer that.  We would not!

If you stayed home for a year then that's your problem.  Millions of us have travelled normally except for the stupid mask which does nothing btw.

I doubt too many wear masks at home.   😀

You'd be surprised I bet.  I mean there are morons wearing them in their cars by themselves.

Perhaps the most stupid remark of 2021 so far!

Truth

The presntation. Cutting & Editing to show and tell a specific slanted agenda is the new acceptable standards in journalism that fools fall for and believe. 

These people only watch CBS, CNN and MSNBC.  They believe all those lies.

Duh. There is an emergency. Stay safe. If you don't get vaccinated or have not had Covid you are a big fat target for the latest variant. The virus is surging in younger demographics because a high percentage of over 65 has been vaccinated. As the percentage of the population vaccanated or with Covid immunity rises those left without antibodies are going to be the big fat target of the virus. The virus needs to  feed.

I'll take my chances with a virus with a 99.6% survival rate versus a experimental "vaccine" rushed to market.  I'll wait and let all  the guinea pigs get it.

CBS is the network of 60 Minutes. That alone should be a red flag. 

Yea, how about their hit job on Desantis?  All bias and lies.  Pathetic journalism.

CBS News.  Now there's a reliable news source.  Not.

Oh but yes it has, maybe you don't check out the news much:

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has authorized three COVID-19 vaccines for emergency use. The vaccines are: Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine. Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine.Mar 24, 2021 from their site

 

You're a month late.

Emergency use only.

Ok but lots of vaccines are required....to go to school, to work, etc.  Remember the German measles outbreak in colleges in the late 80s?  Oh well not sure what will happen. 

This has not been authorized by the FDA.  Just a rushed experiment.   Can't even say it's a vaccine.

When the vaccine isn't mandatory.

Not going on any cruise when the vaccine is mandatory.  Plenty of other things to do.  Been to FL three times since this BS started.  Going to Colorado and South Dakota in June and wife and me going to gulf shores, AL in Sept for 25th anniversary.  I'll wait until the cruise lines come to their senses.

If you don't want them the rest of the world will take them and you can just stay isolated in your own borders while we all go travelling😜. 

Been travelling the whole time during  the plandemic has been going on.

Oakland, CA???? It's a great place. And near "the sea."

Who would ever want to move to California?  No thanks.

South Central Pennsylvania has it all. Why would you ever want to leave? You can skip the vaccine and remain in your own slice of Eden, while the rest of us slobs have to get our free jabs and search the world to try to find what you have in your own backyard.

And where are you from?  .  Believe me first chance I get I'm out of here.

I live in NJ and along with NY we are the top 2 in the country.  Don't leave the house with out a mask.  Haven't seen others without a mask either. What does that tell you?

It tells me they don't work and all the people who believe they do have been scammed.

I honestly believe that if vaccination isn't required by the cruise line and/or the CDC the industry is dead.

I think it will bring back the industry.  Going to be a big shock when vaccines open up for the younger folks and there are warehouses full of the poison sitting and rotting because more people won't get it than will.

That is actually not true. Any privately owned company can require that their employees be vaccinated. Just like the cruise lines can do the same. As a matter of fact, here in NJ, Rutgers University just announced today that all incoming Fall students must show proof of vaccination. 

Against the law.

I disagree with you. People would simply get used to it the way they have got used to not smoking in bars in new york or other places maybe.

 

Cruising will survive IF mask wearing become permanent I think. Again it will be interesting to see the sales for up celeb/royal cruises.

Nope not a chance.  People like to breathe fresh air.  Seeing more and more without every day.

Aren't they required for shopping? Never??

Have had no problems.  Nobody has said a word except at Dick's sporting goods last week.  They offered me one at the front door.  I said nope, no thanks and kept walking. Have been to Old Navy, Home Depot, Lowe's, Homegoods and our 3 local grocery stores recently.  It's not a law.

Actually, as of yesterday, NY was 14th best, Florida 13th worst.  I have many friends in Florida.  I worry about their well being.

At least they can pretty much live life the way they want to.
