Gina Carano speaks her mind

Since late February and early March, the rampant and currently still looming strong Coronavirus took a hold of the entire world. Lockdowns were put in place and travel bans were imposed. Although several parts of the world have reopened, some parts are still under strict measures.

Carano took this opportunity to shed light on what it is like for an individual as well as a society at large to be under lockdown for so long. It is worth noting that she is not saying that people should be unsafe or just ignore the required precautions.

She wrote, “The world IS open but no one is allowed to work. Working is a right you, as an American have. It gives us purpose, focus, pride, and most importantly a way to support the ones we love. People are dropping like flies from depression and suicide, overdoses, MURDER. Enough already.”

Carano added, “Open up your businesses & churches. Put whatever regulations you want to because that is your right but open them up. You’re telling me Covid-19 knows the difference between a protest or praise & worship. I haven’t even been to church in over a decade but I sure would go now.”
