Some thoughts on the Shutdown (a.k.a., lock down) One of the first things that happened across the country was shutdown of schools.  Now that the startup is happening mostly in May -- I am wondering if this was a primary feature of the shutdown. The children of the country were protected from any FF school shootings during this period. And now with the startup happening in May, schools still won't be open because they will not be running them during the normal summer break period. These past few weeks would have been the perfect time to have some DS kid shooting parties. So children have been protected for 6 months - March thru August. The collateral damage has been  economic, and keeping a lot of children safe would be worth that....
