The news is causing another panic

Larchap49 11-16-2020 08:26 AM

My best guess is stupidity, greed and lack of consideration for your neighbors

Because it was all over the news last week that there are going to be shortages again. Thank the media for creating the panic.

The media is ramping up the fear again!

Everyone is worried because of the storm in the Philippines is working it’s way towards Florida

So....just wondering why empty shelves again?

I think returning snowbirds have digestive issues.

He said it, was not a recommendation, is NOT in line with Joey's view.

Installed a bidet and love it. Check out the info on the web. Simple to install.

There is a shortage because last week the MSM reported that there was going to be another shortage. Self-fulfilling prophecy ...

My best guess is that the media is saying that there have been more cases of Covid-19 and everyone is running to stock up on things. We know now that the eighteen wheelers and their drivers are out there bringing goods to groceries, so I doubt it will be the delay it was before.

We will do what we have always done and get through this. I wonder at why people's first reaction is to be mad at other people and call them names??

Most defenders of our beautiful and heretofore free America understand that there may be some very nasty things about to happen - to maintain that freedom. Thus, no toilet paper.
