WAKE UP JOPLIN!
I Wonder if the City Council - Could have Helped Stop some of the Outbreaks - with a "Mask Ordinance" - Like Springfield, MO and Kansas City, MO.
But Joplin is Ran by and Elected by "IDIOTS" - so you get what you Vote into Office. Hopefully you have not Lost a Family Member or Friend to this DEADLY DISEASE - or have Family Member or Friends on the Front Lines - having to Help Others and Putting Themselves and their Families at Risk for People that thought this COVID Pandemic was a Hoax or some type of Political Issue.
Again, this is not a Political Issue, a Republican vs Democrat - but a Major Medical Outbreak that requires - Drastic Decisions - Leadership to "Do The Right Things".
Why So Much Random Capitalization?
