Wow. Thanks for being rude. Sorry my concern for people is an affront to you. You must be one of those people that goes out in a blizzard when the governor declares a state of emergency and decides he needs a new wardrobe. And then gets made that the stores are closed.

Exactly which member of the public are you afraid is being forced outdoors to die in this weather?

What's it matter anymore. I'm expressing concern for public health and safety, and the comments are all being snippy and snide and insulting. Go play volleyball. This is just New England. This isn't how people should respond. This isn't normal.

The rink is open because they want to make money. They are putting possible minimum financial gain over the health and well-being of the staff and the public. Instead of being pro active and saying maybe we should play it safe. They're going to be reactive and hope no one gets hurt or worse. And if an incident does happen, they'll scramble to wipe it under the rug and claim the public knew the risks.

Long live captialism. Hope it's worth it.

On the contrary, this is exactly normal. The rink offers a legitimate outdoor entertainment choice. It's up to you if you want to skate. Should the governor declare a state of emergency, and close all roads leading in and out of the state? Then deploy the national guard to patrol the streets to shoot those outside?

It's called common sense, something lacking in a lot of people.

Feel free to get on 95 south, and don't stop until you're somewhere deep under Ron DeSantis' jurisdiction.

I'll just continue to live here, trying to make changes here in the hopes people do better instead of being someone that attempt to hide their bullying ways under the veil of sarcasm.

Good luck in the war against winter. We’re all counting on you.
