More nanny state nonsense? I'm sick of the government telling me how it's going to be! Think for yourself sheeple
Well I am working on a roof today so thanks for the heads up.
Chill out 8:35, it's a weather forecast.
I agree with 8:35. They think they have to tell you how to deal with excess heat, extreme cold. Next thing you know they will be telling you how to button your shirt.
But then on the other hand, you look at and observe any democrat voter for even a short period of time and you know why. They have lost the ability to think for themselves.
