Tourism in one thing; relocation is another.

Yeah but they asked for all kinds of crazy stuff and they can't afford the taxes anymore so they are coming to your town hall to tell you how they handle things up North...

U.S. to restrict travel from India effective May 4 as Covid surge devastates the country

Huh, I thought the virus was all an American deep state lie.

Pepperidge Farm remembers a year ago when travel restrictions from China was considered racist and xenophobic.

While you’re not totally wrong, I think a large chunk of the problem was that certain people were generalizing and turning it into “all Asians” or “all Chinese” by calling it the “China flu/virus”. This meant even Asian Americans started getting nasty looks or comments that they should go back to China when many of them are actually from here.

That was a product of a particular individual spurring the racism using terms like "China virus" to cause hate.

It was being studied in china with u.s. funding and the travel restrictions may have been more problematic what with people being herded like cattle at airports trying to avoid being stuck where they were.

Nope. That's false. Get your facts straight.

Please present your proof.

If there's u.s. funding, please provide the paperwork for it (there must be paperwork somewhere since that would involve money transfers, budgets, etc.).

And...what's your last point exactly?

If a meteor is hurtling toward a city and there's a day or two's notice, would people not be trying everything they can to travel away from its projected impact site?

Can't because there is no evidence pointing to the novel virus research in China being funded by the US. Lol however, if you can prove me wrong with your facts, I'd gladly be a, as you called me, "big man" and accept my error. But then again, you never will :popcorn:
