...or at least pretending to listen.

 to Senator


Thank you for your message regarding the reopening of California's bowling centers. I appreciate hearing from you as I share your concerns.


 


I co-signed a letter that was delivered to Governor Newsom today requesting that he re-evaluate the status of bowling centers under his "Blueprint for a Safer Economy" in order to aid in the responsible re-opening of an integral part of many local communities. The letter can be read at https://bates.cssrc.us/sites/default/files/201009_BowlingCenters.pdf.


 


Please know that I will continue to do what I can to reopen more of our state in a safe and responsible manner.


 


Sincerely,


 


PATRICIA C. BATES


Senator, 36th District


South Orange and North San Diego Counties

It's just a shame that bowling centers and small businesses are closing for the sake of Democrats holding the public and small businesses as hostages here in California. We've got Walmart stores packed with people per square ft than most bowling centers. At least the majority of bowlers are more considerate to maintain distance and wear masks. You can go to almost any wally world and find 2-3 people out of every 50 who walk in with out a mask.
I want a hair cut too. Out of touch, crazy Nancy Pelosi. Please buy me a $24k freezer so I put $20 pints of ice cream in.

 Over 215, 000 deaths and counting. Now Covid-19 cases are spiking again. Until we have some sanity restored in this country, we will continue to
be in the grips of this pandemic. California had some of the highest number of cases per capita in the country. And they are beginning to spike again.

The Democrats are not perfect, but they are pound for pound, a lot saner when it comes in trying to deal with this crisis than what we have been witnessing from the Republicans.   If there is any doubt about this, just tune in to one our president's rallies. Irresponsible behavior doesn't come close to explaining those sideshows. Talk to some of the families who have lost loved ones to this virus. Family members dying lonely deaths. Talk to them. Feel their pain. It's real.  We can get our economy opened again, including our bowling centers, if we only had leadership in Washington that would take this crisis seriously, because what happens there also affects the individual states, including California.

How dare you bring statistics in MJS. Only fact you need to know is Orange Man Bad.

Back to the topic. Open businesses up. It’s a free country. If you want to go bowling or anything else knowing you could catch the virus - it’s on you. If you are afraid- stay at home in your living room with your mask on. Don’t forget to put on your life preserver when you take a bath.

By the way - lost my uncle to COVID in June. He was 60 with multiple underlying conditions. It happens. I’m not sulking and I’m still bowling.

Yes COVID-19 has taken people including some of my family members. So I don't require a lecture. Those whom you need to lecture are on the streets at night being thugs, looting, killing innocents, destroying peoples livelihoods. Let's see, it took approx. 120 days before ex VP Biden to denounce the violent looting after he first said it wouldn't be a protest without violence. Our current leadership was the first to shut down our country before others followed suit. The ex VP Biden called our current Leader a zenophobic maniac along with every news outlet and every leftwing celebrity who can speak into their phone and denounce what he had done. Almost a month went by before the Democratic party start jumping on the band wagon about wearing PPE. Our Current President called out the the WHO organization and wanted answers. They did not respond without China's consent. Did you not know our previous leaders (Democrats) left our PPE supplies down to almost nothing. Half a wharehouse as opposed to six that where filled prior to him sitting on his blm throne. Despite what the fake news outlets have been informing you. Our leaders were scrambling to get PPE supplies ordered. Another note of interest. At the time all this broke out we had no manufacturing to produce PPE. All our PPE came from China. China in all their glory Hoarded all the PPE. Along with the other Asian continental PPE manufacturers.  So by the end of March any orders for PPE to the US would not arrive until after May 2021. It was screw the US we'll take care of ourselves first. Any ship that was inbound to the US with previously ordered PPE after Thanksgiving was ordered back to China ports. What ever we had in US ports was distributed to US hospitals as humanly possible. Could we have acted sooner. Yes. If it weren't for the WHO organization (China's puppets) telling our US leadership that it was contained in Wuhan. Which was false. Anyone who lived in the Wuhan districts with a VISA got the hell out and spread it all over the world. A display of China's greatness in reducing the worlds population without firing a missile. As far as our leadership in Washington goes, It's. Let's be calm and figure this out together. On the Democratic side It's. FIRE, FIRE, BLAME,BLAME,BLAME. Call the DNC so we can all say the same thing word for word on fake news outlets.  An interview with Biden last month had him saying what he would be doing for this pandemic. Which was exactly what Pres. Trump was already doing when this pandemic began to rear it's ugly head. Every leading Democrat called Trump a zenophobe for shutting down travel abroad.

So almost everyone seems to have missed the point that at least a few elected officials are trying to get us back to bowling?

And yea, Nancy Pelosi and Gavin Newsome ARE related, but only by marriage, so not the same bloodline which makes it pretty much irrelevant.

I mean..share enough family meals together and radical ideas start to sound reasonable in an echo chamber, blood or not.

Glad to see though someone at least giving bowling centers a thought. I feel they are all too often over looked.

So between these topics and the Tommy Pham story we've learned that California bowling centers are still closed but strip clubs are open.
