    The Coast Guard is ordering the sick to stay on board. I'm fine with that, I just think the non ill should get off the boats. :crapstorm: Miami has them lining up. This shit could get ugly.

    Not sure anyone said to leave them to “die.” However their SIP or quarantine location should be the ship they decided to board. There was contradicting information from day one.

    First choice- ignore it, knowing some were saying you would risk your health and possibly your life.

    Second choice- don’t know, possibly loose out on a deposit or cost of the cruise.

    Gee I wonder which one I would choose. That’s on them. If they require ventilation and there are non on the ship or a doctor that knows how to use it, then fine. If not, and your just bored, asymptomatic, or complaining about bad food. Well then fuck you... stay there.

    What non ill? Two week incubation period. If anyone on that boat has it, they were exposed. Unless they had two weeks of food in their room and never left, then deboarded in a haz suit, they are a possible carrier. Just like the dick heads at spring break and Mardi gras.

    I guess I don't understand the outrage towards Florida. The ship was barred from entering Chile. It then had to sail past at least nine other countries to get to Florida. Where's the outrage towards those nations?

    Oh, but *most* of those other countries are considered third world, right? Whelp, they have airports. Right now they're not letting the infected off of the cruise ship. The non infected? They're being taken to the airport. No quarantine, just get on a plane and fare the well. They could have done that in any one of those nine+ other countries and this drama would have been done weeks ago.

    About a third of the passengers are “American“ citizens. Many of who reside in Florida (which is why Florida won the booby prize). I agree, they should write you a thank you note for your generosity.

    My comment was directed at the mindset of every man for himself and fuck the world. Many want to claim that the US is a Christian nation, and in my understanding of the bible Jesus wouldn't approve of the every man for himself attitude, especially against people who are sick. I'm sure most people in the fuck the world group are not Christians, but those that are Christian should stand up against them.

    I was pretty sure America was founded on the principles of religious freedom, what (at the time) was merely a majority Christian. We are (supposedly) open and accepting of all religions.

    And THEY would agree that leaving infected people on the boats to continue to infect non-infected people on those boats is what Jesus, Muhammad, Vishnu, and the Great Spaghetti Monster would consider a class A "dick move."

    You have a bag of M&M's, there are 100 M&M's in the bag. 3 of them will kill you. Do you:

    A) Have a few in the hopes you don't get one of the 3

    Or

    B) Do you throw the whole fucking bag away and eat the cost of buying the bag of M&M's?

    Pretty sure I am going with option B.

    :notsure:The majority of the countries that they sailed past would be considered Christian.

    I think we're starting to skirt towards the ban hammer :popcorn:

    The difference with this scenario is that people aren't M&Ms.

    Have you studied the history of Christianity? We should be on a crusade or burning witches right now.

    I think it's closer to 20 deadly M&Ms. I never understood why they count people who are currently sick in the death rate. It's kind of irrelevant to the statistic. You either get over the virus or you die. Those are the important numbers. It's kinda like publishing the pass/fail results of a test and including the people currently taking the test in the "passed" column.

    Wasnt inferring they were. The point is, don't go on the fucking cruise when there is alot of talk about a possible pandemic where you may or may not contract a disease, virus, etc. If the possibility is there for you to contract a life threatening sickness, the PRUDENT thing to do would be to NOT go.
    If you want to take that crap shoot then fuck you. Sleep in the bed you made, ships have medical staff. Deal with it...........IMO.
