X2 walleye 101. There is a line between quarantine social distancing and blatant overreach. Apparently, some don't see it.


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Ok so folks in Michigan arent going to congregate around the boat ramps and this is going to save lives........ excellent, i feel better already. I pose a question for everyone that jumped in and stood up for our governor. How is it she is saving lives by shutting down gun shops, garden sections, and lumber/landscape supply retailers? We are not allowed to purchase seeds,guns,2x4's or charcoal.

I know you aren't giving me a hard time, this is just how we figure this stuff out. I get what your saying, but I have a lot more confidence in my ability to not hit that minivan than I do in my ability to not spread this virus, that I may not even have symptoms of, to someone I come in contact with.

My father has been a quadriplegic since 1998. He has reduced lung function and multiple infection issues at this time. He has 24 hour caregivers that come into his home to care for him. One of those nurses picks up the virus in the next 18 months from someone in the community, before we have a vaccine, he's toast. Not a matter of if, but when. We have two close family members currently working in Detroit area hospitals that are getting slammed with patients, and several family members with high risk health complications living in one of the hardest hit counties in this state. That might be informing my opinions on this.



We also have nurses standing around in outstate hospitals with little to do or even being laid off.

Cuz if you can't go buy these things there's a higher chance you will stay home. For Pete's sake. This is simple stuff.

We have a right to defend ourselves, and put food on our tables. The people working the jobs should be able to if they want as well. People need to stop allowing their emotions override rights.

Still not buying that banning boating is saving anyone. So instead of going boating you stop at WalMart for groceries. You will of course be exposed to way more people in close quarters than you will at a crowded boat ramp, but for some reason that's acceptable. Complete b.s.

If you don't want to take the chance of being exposed, stay home. Do not go out. Ever.

Just make sure you can out run them and don't plan on going back to the launch.
