Worrying to say the least. Now, 'I'm not saying all Americans are dumb morons.
Just the majority, else why is a really dumb f*cker in the White House ?....

Ps: As it's my day today, I share this titbit with you...
PEOPLE TURNED TO ST GEORGE FOR PROTECTION
During the Middle Ages, people believed that St George was one of the 'Fourteen Holy Helpers' – a group of saints who could help during epidemic diseases. St George's protection was invoked against several nasty diseases, many fatal and with infectious causes, including the Plague and leprosy.
From around 1100, St George’s help was also sought to protect the English army. In William Shakespeare’s Henry V, the monarch calls on the saint during his battle cry at the Battle of Harfleur in the famous “Once more unto the breach, dear friends” speech, crying “God for Harry! England, and St. George!” Five hundred years later – during the First World War – a ghostly apparition of St George is said to have aided British troops during their retreat from Mons. 'not a lot of people know that.....

Well....you’d think that, by now, everyone has twigged that praying to saints is a waste of time and dangerous to the knees.Who2 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 23, 2020 12:44 pm

But no.....the religiously minded are still beseeching God, Allah or whoever to save them from the ravages of Coronavirus.
They’d do better to heed scientific advice on the merits of washing their hands and social distancing. Mercifully, they seem to have recognised that gathering for prayers in churches @nd mosques is not a good idea.
No harm in praying to St George - or whoever- in the privacy, and solitude, of your own home.
Except for your knees......

Anyway.....here’s the man in action :
