LOL. Do you even have kids??

This is hilarious! (if you mean it as a joke!)

But I don't understand why people are still expecting a normal Halloween this year. What about the pandemic don't you understand?

I think you are ascribing magical powers to this virus if you think that masked kids walking around taking candy from bowls outside is risky. Maybe we should call Halloween a protest and then we will all be shielded from the virus.

Good for you. Congratulations on using your free will.

Dr. Gayles has no legal authority to issue an anti-trick-or-treating directive. This is a massive overreach and people need to stop submitting to this stuff.

Ding ding ding, we have a winner. Is this guy going to command the police to roll costumed kids in the street and cuff them?

I mean does any of this nonsense make sense to you? Families have been vacationing and eating out for months. Kids still not in school.

Maybe your family has but mine has not. We ate out 2 or three times outside since March but haven't socialized or gone on vacations.

This is what our neighborhood decided to do. You can supervise your table from 10 feet back to make sure one child doesn't take all the candy.

There have been exactly zero confirmed cases of covid from trick or treating and zero confirmed deaths from it.

And that’s totally fine. Lots of people do that in a normal year. Sheesh.

Pp here. A few weeks ago I commented on something that Gayles must not have kids. Someone said it shouldn’t matter. It matters folks. Bars can serve booze inside and people can drink till midnight but creative socially distanced trick or treating is a no. I’m casting my ballot for Joe on 11/3 but I’m so disgusted with our county.
