Details from Twitter user @RexChapman:
“Walter and Jean have been married for 70 years.
“I Love You, Darling.”
Jean is 89 years old and lives in a nursing home. Walter is 91.
Because of the lockdown, they couldn’t see each other. Jean cried every day.
They just reunited.”

Just a quick reminder. If you live in California and feel motivated. Try the state capital in Sacramento Saturday, May 23, 2020. That’s tomorrow. High Noon
Hundreds + are going to protest to open up the state. Hundreds does not sound like a lot, but it’s a start.
For additional information contact one of the many patriots that keep the ball rolling, Connie a ChildofGod (@conidave): on Twitter #UnMaskForFreedom.
Finally, conservatives are taking it to the streets.
Respectfully
Deplorable Patriot
* I should point out that opening up the state should not be a red or blue specific event. We all have something to lose. Democrats and liberals should join us in our task. We can pick up the politics later when regain our Freedom.

From the YouTube video description:
“These impossibly tough days of home isolation are difficult for all of us. But for someone battling Alzheimers and Vascular Dementia, being restricted to home destroys confidence, weekly routines and what little is left of short-term cognitive function. My mum is 87 years old and lives with us at home, we are her full-time carers. Now we’re her full-time shopping mall too. My wife Megan, baby daughter Evie and son Art staffed our own home-made supermarket stocked with her favourite groceries. My eldest son Levi filmed this on his iPhone.
Whatever your challenge at home, whatever your family situation, please remember to let some sunshine through. From our little imperfect family to yours, stay safe and may kindness keep you well.”
How sweet!

Had I not checked this out myself, I would have thought this to be an April Fools joke. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms has authorized all FFL licensees to sell firearms through drive-up windows of their stores.
Or in outdoor kiosks.
Or in parking lots.
Life is good!
The ATF’s April 10 letter to FFL licensees issued the new guidlines in response to the coronavirus disease (WU HAN virus 武漢病毒).
“In light of the March 13, 2020, declaration of a national emergency concerning the outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19), and the Department of Homeland Security’s subsequent classification of firearms businesses as essential, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) has received questions from industry members regarding the legality of firearm sales and deliveries exterior to the brick-and-mortar structure at which the firearms business is licensed. Specifically, Federal Firearms Licensees (FFLs) have requested guidance regarding whether they may verify customer identity and permit the completion of paperwork, including for purposes of the National Instant Criminal Background Check System; accept payment; and deliver firearms or ammunition to customers (collectively, “the requested activities”) in the following settings:
(1) a drive-up or walk-up window or doorway on the FFL’s property;
(2) a temporary table or booth located in a parking lot on the FFL’s property; and
(3) a nearby space that is not located on the FFL’s property.As is further detailed below, pursuant to the Gun Control Act (GCA) and its ATF Federal Firearms Licensees. ”
According to USA Today . . .
“The Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco Firearms and Explosives, in new guidance to federally licensed firearm retailers, said Friday that dealers can provide drive-up or walk-up service to reduce health risks posed by the coronavirus.
The guidance was issued, the ATF said, in response industry questions about how business transactions could be restricted following the declaration of a national health emergency.
The move was made at the request of the National Shooting Sports Foundation in an effort to expedite background checks and make the firearms sales process as safe for both gun retailers and customers as possible given COVID-19 武漢病毒 social distancing guidelines.”
As might be expected, the usual whiny libtard snowflakes are having a meltdown.
This is too much. The Trump administration and continues to outdo itself in taking every possible step to pander to the gun lobby during a national crisis and global pandemic. #StopTheCoronavirusGunSurge #COVID19 https://t.co/wJ15a21V22
Kris Brown (@KrisB_Brown) April 11, 2020– First, the Trump administration declared gun stores “essential.” Now, the ATF is promoting them to operate “drive-through” windows. Let’s be clear, gun stores are NOT McDonalds. You shouldn’t be able to buy an AR-15 like you do a burger and fries.
https://t.co/eQvFYOQRuR Brady | United Against Gun Violence (@bradybuzz) April 11, 202–The ATF is recommending gun stores operate using drive through windows. Support local restaurants, go to their drive throughs instead.

Across the world, as humans self-quarantine inside their homes, animals are retaking streets and towns.
In tourist spots where wildlife had depended on snacks from tourists, the animals are roaming the streets in search of food.
Below are pics of deer, sheep, horses, and even wild boar in Japan, Italy, and Poland.
Meanwhile, ducks are serenely swimming in the Trevi Fountain in Rome, Italy, once jampacked with tourists.
In Venice, the water in canals — now devoid of gondola traffic — is clear and full of fish.
After a week of lockdown… The canals in Venice are all clear and full of fishes. Kinda gives you the idea of what will happen to Earth without Humans! pic.twitter.com/fKemxGwbvO

And in Atlanta, Georgia, since the Georgia Aquarium is closed to humans, the Atlanta Humane Society put together a field trip for puppies. 😀

Yesterday I avoided reading news websites that I normally view for blog posts. I avoided checking the stock market. I checked my Twitchy app headlines and saw the normal bi-partisan hyperbole, especially after President Trump gave his speech last night on the Wuhan Virus. Heaven forbid, he mentioned it originated in China so now he’s being called a xenophobe, racist, etc., etc.
The progressive media will NOT abandon their hysterics and politics for ONE minute. They have only ONE agenda. But you can spend some time this morning abandoning THEM.
I decided to check out some Twitter timelines of a few of my favorites and came upon this tweet by Mollie Hemingway: “A Christian Attitude in Times of Widespread Sickness and Rumor of Death.”
From the post: “When sickness and death test the foundation of Christian trust in God’s mercy, the Scriptures teach a four-fold attitude of faith, prayer, compassion, and mercy.”
The post is a quick read and includes the following excerpts:
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.”
“Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience.”
“Once our hearts have been set at peace, we can consider how to best serve our neighbors. There is a two-fold danger of recklessness on the one hand and debilitating fear on the other. The Christian avoids both by faith.”
Read the whole post here.
Faith, prayer, compassion and mercy are very much needed today.
Ignore the media, news, Twitter and take a deep breath. And remember that we are all in this together. With prayer and calm heads this too shall pass and together we can weather the storm.

Another reason why it’s so important that President Trump has been making a record amount of court judge appointments.
From SF Gate: (AP) — In a victory for the Trump administration, a U.S. appeals court on Monday upheld rules that bar taxpayer-funded family-planning clinics from referring women for abortions.
The 7-4 ruling by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals overturned decisions issued by judges in Washington, Oregon and California. The court had already allowed the administration’s changes to start taking effect while the government appealed those rulings.
The changes ban taxpayer-funded clinics in the Title X program for low-income women from making abortion referrals, a restriction opponents characterize as a “gag rule.”
Beginning March 4, the rules will also prohibit clinics that receive federal money from sharing office space with abortion providers, which critics said would force many Title X providers to find new locations, undergo expensive remodels or shut down — further reducing access to the program.
