Americans are funny: "give me liberty or death; no government interference in our lives; laissez-faire business economics."
The second trouble comes, you see them: "we need stimulus checks; government should spend more on Medicaid; give us business grants and bailouts; quantitative easing and bond purchase"

Can never satisfy people.
Americans who refuse to save their income in times of plenty (average savings rate under 4%) - despite being some of the richest people on Earth - are now in need of bailouts because of no work for 3 weeks. Save in case of times like these, so you can stay at home to save your life...

I'm not surprised. I gave up on telling people how extra ordinarily dumb and stupid a lot of Americans are because a lot of people just couldn't belive the greatest country in the history of the world shockingly has lots of stark illiterates.if you want to know what being extremely stupid is, go to redneck areas in texas, or those areas you have mostly black/Hispanic communities. Then you will know that while America has a good educational system, the people who take most advantage of it are usually immigrants. Let me give a simple example, trump told Americans that China was paying for the tariffs and most of his uneducated supporter base swallowed it even without knowing what it means except since trump said it and making America great again is all that matters. you could get a heart attack trying to explain the meaning of word tariff.Guys you may hate your country all you want and of course many have the right to because let's face it, Nigeria hasn't really provided lots of opportunities for its citizens. However with that price also comes a boon,most of us know our right from left, most are streets art and can survive anywhere, lots of us rise above a certain level that's why a serious minded Nigerian will make it in America easily, however it may be that in a few months, American visa wouldn't be as attractive as it once was. News flash, civil unrest might start in America anytime soon, some communities are already forming militias

Who would've thought that the U.S.A had dumb people as well but


apart from that watch how some self made inferior ass lickers will praise this move while if it was done in naija they will criticize it like there is no tomorrow.

They are actually dumber. The Nigerian will defy lockdown because people need to go out to make a living and no welfare system to cater to them but what excuse do those ones have?

onelovenigeria:

Thanks....
Most people's on this forum might be kids or adults that are still spoon fed by parent ....no need wasting your energy to explain to them......if the same social distancing can be apply and use of mask and gloves ...let people return to work ....

But thats just the issue here!! It cannot be applied.
Are you people waking up to the Coronavirus today or something??

How many countries tried the mask nd glove shit?? You think countries like italy, france nd Britain will agree to loose billions in revenue if there was a way people would interact without passing the virus??

Staying home is the last resort.

Jeeeez!! How can people be so crass ??

I think healthy people shud wear masks, washing hands at each public engagement points while maintaining safe distancing precautions.

The lockdown down shudnt be indefinite, it's counter productive. The whole China was never on lockdown, it was only wuhan and sm others. That's why China Can get back this quick.

Total lockdown is only neccesssary for a month at most to trace contacts, create awareness and formulate next approach to reduce the virus while reopening society with precautions.

Sitting in one place, panic and fear reduces immunity. Business shud be partially opened and face mask Must be compulsory.

Staphylococcus:


It's all politics.

He needs to score a point against next election at the expense of human life's.

Even if the economy is opened, how many people are ready to risk it. This pandemic will alter human ways for a long time till a cure is found.

Crying more than the bereaved.... as it is in ur zoo so u think it's everywhere ?

ignis:


How long will the lockdown last?

Help me ask am biko.. Because he still got food to eat now,why won't he make mouth.. Let this lockdown last a year,if he won't run out of his house.. One year too big sef,lets say 6months,if he won't change mouth.. I pity the poor seriously. After this two weeks,more two weeks might come,then how are they gonna survive?This is why poverty is worst than even the covid-19.

Susu888:



[s]You obviously haven't been updated that masks nd gloves are almost useless so what you nd the idiots protesting are suggesting is not the way to go, lockdown is the only way to stop the infection from spreading.


Do you think china never tried the mask nd gloves sh*t all in the bid not to make it obvious to the world that it was not loosing its grip on the situation? Guess wht finally happened?? Lockdown! Because it can't be stopped by masks ,gloves nd distancing.


And lets say they manage to make it work in the U.S.A how in the world can you make naija people where mask and gloves?? Nd in cities as crowded as lagos nd kano.

I thought you were only dumb but it turns out you're also pure stupidity....You lack a functioning brain.


Bleep off my mentions i dislike stupid folks that argue blindly. [/s]

Gibberish!
What brought mask and gloves into this conversation? Gosh! You're so retaarded. Lmao

Devil has finally hold his hold on some people now.

When he restricted flights from China, he was called Xenophobic. Even the media downplayed it, WHO said there is no person to person transmission. I tell you, handling a pandemic in a. Country like the USA is no mean feat, given the nature of the country and the fact that you don't want to come across as authoritarian.

Are you aware of America's intelligence. Trump just using WHO to cover up of recent. WHO's report was not in the picture till he was boxed to the wall. They knew the extent of this damage. Let's imagine they never knew the extent, but could issue a warning to Israel and NATO. Does it make sense?

Trump had the reports and power to act, it's all for economic gains to score political points. Also, if he was called Xenophobic then, his he not doing what ought to have been done earlier by stopping immigration? He is the no 1 man. Drastic situations require drastic measures irrespective of what anybody thinks or feels, cos at the end of the day, you will take the credit or blame, solely.

Well, if this was an African country, a lot of hypocrites praising them right now here on Nairaland, would have said a whole lot of demeaning comments on the Africans.

But yet, that country has got a standard, look at the them protesting without the fear of intimidation from any security personnel. I wonder if such could happen in my country (Nigeria). The government itself would have been the first intimidation by ordering massive arrest of the citizens.

You point is the reason why we insult Africa, if a protest is held like this somewhere in Nigeria, at least one person must die.

As protesters clogged streets with cars, healthcare workers in scrubs and face masks stood at intersections in counterprotest.

If the pandemic is as bad as the media reports then which time did these ones have to counter protest?

Susu888:

Can't argue with you.. pls

Atleast you accepted he made a convincing point, people are still working
The data you use, the internet, the food you eat during lockdown, the news you watch on tv...they are humans working

I'm not surprised. I gave up on telling people how extra ordinarily dumb and stupid a lot of Americans are because a lot of people just couldn't belive the greatest country in the history of the world shockingly has lots of stark illiterates.if you want to know what being extremely stupid is, go to redneck areas in texas, or those areas you have mostly black/Hispanic communities. Then you will know that while America has a good educational system, the people who take most advantage of it are usually immigrants. Let me give a simple example, trump told Americans that China was paying for the tariffs and most of his uneducated supporter base swallowed it even without knowing what it means except since trump said it and making America great again is all that matters. you could get a heart attack trying to explain the meaning of word tariff.Guys you may hate your country all you want and of course many have the right to because let's face it, Nigeria hasn't really provided lots of opportunities for its citizens. However with that price also comes a boon,most of us know our right from left, most are streets art and can survive anywhere, lots of us rise above a certain level that's why a serious minded Nigerian will make it in America easily, however it may be that in a few months, American visa wouldn't be as attractive as it once was. News flash, civil unrest might start in America anytime soon, some communities are already forming militias

If Nigerians were truly smart, that country will not be in the pathetic state it's in right now. Nigerians are only 'smart' when it comes to criminal activities.

Exciting Facts about Covid-19
1. Covid-19 is a ‘global fraud’ scripted by the ‘world who is who’.
2. @BillGate and others are at the center of this Covid-19 mess.
3. About 290,000 American have signed petition against Billgate for him and his foundation to be investigated
4. Anyway I will advice you NOT to even allow yourself to be tested.. cos in the process they will infect you ..just as they did with HIV ..,Say No to Vaccine!
5. You may not like the truth but most African generic diseases and complication are as a result of vaccine/ medication programmed to depopulate the blacks .. and it kills us slowly while some vaccine causes sterilization
6. ‘event 201’ was released in October 2019 .. 6weeks before the real Covid-19 broke out, please google and watch the ‘script’.. though it was called ‘simulation’ but only the thoughtful can see the power play
7. I hope Covid -19 will be a wake up call for us all to say NO to ‘grants and aids’ that will put us in a perpetual slavery.

Sincerely, you not far from the truth.

Eriggs:
They protest with their national flags.
But in Nigeria, you see some pigs breaking shops, stealing and raping and they call it protests.
Backward people.

This is how protest normally begins. Eventually, some will take advantage to break into shops, some will burn things,break things etc

Humans are the same everywhere

Vulcan24:


really!!! so u know better

World Health Organisation, "WHO" knows better

21cents:
look at that clown in dinosaur costume saying Bill gates wants us dead like him

. But he is right, bill gate is behind the deadly vaccines to depopulate the world, a man who said there will never be social gathering except the whole world take the vaccines, he's not even a doctor and he's telling the whole world what to do.

Nigerian Government Can Continue Twistin Things (one Day We Shall Separate The Fools from The Wise)


If Your Lockdown Is Called Off And They Are Still On Lockdown your Country Is Doomed, because Your Country Literally Imports Every Thing.

But Dont Worry, just Pray For America and Once They Get Better Nigeria Will Suddenly Get Better too, just Watch.

That implies you don't care if Nigeria gets better.
