[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’ve discussed it and we’re leaving on Saturday. We found an AirBnB in Covington, VA, about 4 hours from DC. We’ve booked it for 21 days… I guess if there’s an attack it won’t matter at that point and we’ll just stay there. There’s not much around it, and it’s miles and miles from anywhere that would seem even remotely important. Closest “city” is Roanoke, and that’s almost 45 miles away. That seems like the best we can do on short notice. We both WFH and are familiar enough with home schooling thanks to the pandemic that I think the kids will be ok for a while. They’re too young to really understand this, so as long as they’ve got stuff to keep them occupied I think they’ll manage ok….. I never believed we’d be in a mess like this a year ago. It’s just inconceivable. I just can’t even fathom it. [/quote]

What was the deciding factor? I would like to leave for a bit as well and I’m trying to convince my spouse. We may leave out of the country if need be. [/quote]
I just had a discussion with my cousin tonight about leaving the country and going where we have a second citizenship for a few weeks. We're on the fence. [/quote]

On the plus side with all of the paranoids allegedly fleeing the area maybe we can start to shed more of the heightened covid restrictions and move more in line with the rest of the country [/quote]

For real. Please stay wherever you flee too. Your panic is not needed here.   I hope you don’t need to venture out of the house for anything. Covington  is the complete opposite of DC.  Report back how many masks you see. I’m going with zero. [/quote]
[b]The joke is the anti-mask crowd is the pro-prepper crowd too. [/b]They've been waiting for this. [/quote]

+1,000,000[/quote]

+a billion. They anti-mask/pro-prepper folks would also probably F up a post nuclear Holocaust society too by being super stupid. [/quote]

It’s weird to me that you think this. Maybe you and I differ on who we would consider “anti-mask”. But I definitely would think the people literally fleeing DC right now (or at least claiming they are) are the same ones who think their perfectly healthy 6 year old might die if they go to school unmasked.

DP, but I’m pretty sure the anti-mask crowd traffics in conspiracy theories and believe the worst case scenario is about to come true.

Btw, the masks (as has been said before) don’t protect the wearer but others. I have never understood the people saying those wearing masks are living in fear. No, they are living in basic courtesy.[/quote]

Hi!! It’s crazy that you’re posting from April 2020, but I think you’ll be happy to know that almost 2 years later in 2022, everyone knows this is nonsense. [/quote]Exactly. The cdc just said masks aren’t necessary anymore, but nothing changed in Montgomery county yesterday. [/quote]
