I'm having trouble connecting the dots but how does cancelling HLSR benefit Turner politically?
It doesn't and it doesn't need to. He is term limited. Contempt for county and out of county unaffiliated people.

Exactly. I'd imagine in order for CoH to get some of that $8.3 billion, they'd have to declare a state of emergency, which would be hard to do with a giant public event going on. City gets the money, Turner and Boobs Hildago distribute it to "approved" vendors, and a % gets channeled back to them.ChemAg15 said:

I'll say it again, as long as people can hop on a plane, train, subway, etc and are free to mingle about, closing big events won't do crap. Only a moron would believe she only went to the rodeo. She's probably been to numerous places.Quote:
Officials believe the girls' case is travel-related through direct contact with a known case in New York.
Quote:
The girl recently traveled to the state of New York and is a resident of that state. Health officials are in the process of identifying who may have come in contact with her and may have been exposed to the virus.
"The case is travel-related through direct contact with a known case in New York state and there is no evidence of local community spread," the Houston Health Department stated Thursday.

I'm saying that doing so really isn't changing anything as long as other large gathering areas are still OK. Approximately 60k people travel through IAH daily, and busier airports like LAX and ATL double that.cajunaggie08 said:
So are you saying since people can still travel and be exposed to large public spaces, we should let large events still continue on because we can't stop it?

The goal isn't to stop the spread. It's to slow it to avoid overwhelming the health care system.
