Quarantine the sick, not the healthy.

“They have a very high infection rate up there and instead of hitting a plateau the cases are growing. JMO, they are closing Gallup to keep the Navaho out.”

Roger that, I get it. That’s what the story said but it makes no sense that an out of the way place like Gallup would have this problem.

Gallup is a shithole but the people living in do not deserve to be under martial law.

Have you ever been to Gallup or the Rez? A lot of malnutrition, alcoholism and diabetes. A lot of drinking out of the same jug.

I have no idea how the Cherokee live, but I grew up next to the Navajo reservation and for the most part those that live there choose to do so because they want to follow traditional Navajo life. Many do not have electricity or running water.

These videos explain the issues.

Is correctly posting a thread that hard?

Asking for a friend.

At the bottom of this hill lie travel restrictions between states, municipalities, counties...

The Navajo have a high rate of diabetes and obesity. They have been hit very hard. I’m in NM and laid off because of this crap, but the lock down was at the request of the Mayor.

In April, the Navajos had 321 people infected.

Obviously they got it from the blankets the Indian Agent gave them. Darn White Man!

The title tells the story ... uninhibited means no one is doing anything pro or con about it ... it's free to do what it does and

mitigated means to make it less severe.

So ..... they closed off a town so the free range of a "pandemic" would be less severe ..... see ?

The story says that the town is a covid hotspot. Not surprising that they would want to limit further spread in the town or to the rest of the state.

Most Indians in Oklahoma live like modern, normal people. There are health issues but non-Indian Oklahomans aren’t too healthy either.

This is all preparation for the un agenda 2030 which is ten years away. Martial law will.be declared but it won’t be our military it will be the UN blue helmets wearing and heavily armed military that will be in our streets. Thats why the progressive bastareds want us disarmed. Watch canada they will be one of the first UN take overs.

. . . with the Cherokee being slightly larger.

Not certain where you get your information. There are three federally recognized Cherokee tribes: the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians in North Carolina, the United Keetoowah Band of Cherokee Indians (UKB) in Oklahoma, and the Cherokee Nation (CN) in Oklahoma.The population of the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma, by its own count according to its records, is 240,000. The Eastern Band of Cherokees' population is 16,000, and the population of the United Keetoowah band is 14,000 for a total of 270,000.

The Navajo Nation population totals 332,000.
