Yeah, and here was the beach we were at on Saturday. Don’t make us all out to be irresponsible....

Oh no! Don't they realize everyone that catches it drops dead?!?!?! Oh wait

Good go out have fun. So sit at home and wait for cnn to tell when you can live your house

Sad! Because if they survive and infect some one in their family 👪 they will rue their partying!!

The gig is up....people are sick of the fear and they are OK with taking chances. Get over it. WE have. You should too.

Not very smart and may cause this virus to go on for a longer period of time.

Good for them. Not one of them will die of COVID-19.

Terrible situation

Rip for a little fun in the sun. These people will return to communities and businesses spreading the virus.

Where will they been 2-3 weeks from now? I'm betting in a COVID-19 unit in a nearby hospital.

Free society.

It’s a Memorial Day gathering for the virus!

Why are Americans so dumb

Then we should see a huge uptick in cases in 14 days and if we don’t then the narrative changes? Asking for 36M unemployed Americans

The country is NOT our parent and we do NOT need it to coddle us.

So wow the virus disappeared in a weekend I didnt know

Has the scare the hell out of people so you can force them to do your will policy stopped working? Science & scientists are conflicted on value of masks & distancing. April 9-15 13,613 Covid deaths. 2018 average/week 12,451 heart disease, 11,521 cancer. Wages of sin! Cf. Jesus!

WAIT FOR IIIIT...

Today the USA will go over 100,000 deaths from the coronavirus and they are trying to blame China and WHO. I Have Met The Enemy And It Is Me.

Next week:

“This is AMERICA your taking away my freedom by wearing a mask”- said a trump supporter somewhere.. I’m sure

I wonder if they'd do the same if it were Ebola? Smallpox? Polio? Sars? The list goes on. Ignorant, uneducated, can't happen to me, me first attitude. Disgusting.

News media is the enemy provoking fear! And the Democrats are sucking it up!

We refuse to be controlled by the Nazi left.

Re visit in a couple of weeks 🤦‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

Because. . .the JIG is up!!! The people KNOW. . .when they are being tricked, bamboozled, but humpped!! So. . .your gonna have to come up with something else. . .Lamberals. . .Russia hoax, Ukraine hoax, impeachment HOAX did not work. . .FOILED AGAIN . .

You don’t need a mask outside but should have one indoors other than your home but I see people indoors without a mask . Either stupid or brave . Stupidity I think is what’s spreading.

Round two of covid19 will start! What is wrong with people!!!

Have you reported that GovernorVA was seen at the boardwalk with no mask and definitely not social distancing? He's definitely not leading his state by example. WuhanVirus

OMG. People enjoying themselves. They should be arrested. Release all the murders, rapist and child molesters so we have room to lock these people up.

I lived in Long Island Suffolk County beach right down the street all I got after sitting in the hot sun beaming down on my head for 8 hours was a terrible case of sunburn 🥵 NYGovCuomo JoeBiden HouseDemocrats RepJeffries KamalaHarris CoryBooker ABCPolitics we will survive

How dare you, How dare You!!

Ahaha America you screw

I personally think we should start some kind of facility where we can put people who break quarantine. Like a camp.....and we can transport them all there together on, say, trains? And we should give them identifiable clothing. That way it will be super safe for everyone involved

Give it two weeks, and we'll start hearing reports on how some pf these people caught Covid19

If you’re afraid or sick, stay inside. People want to get on with their lives. Freedom over fear! 🇺🇸

That’s not the only wave they’ll be splashing in. CovidWave2

OMG!😣

🤦🏽‍♀️

I would bet this pic is from last year or some other year the way cnn lies

Thinning out the Trump voters.

“Puritanism: the haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy.”

Looks fun!

Entitlement

freedom!

It's All Over. Stop trying 2 make something last that Never existed in the first place. It's all lies. The deaths r extremely inflated, hospitals were Never full, the death rate is 0.26% + the cases all pale in comparison to the ordinary flu in 2017/2018. Science, data + facts.

Can only hope they will be ok, people need to pay attention to the scientist

hard to believe... even just see how ignorant... and stupid pandemic has proven to me how stupid our country is... from its politicians on down

If you rub all there heads together you mind find a brain cell

What the F...!

We are in the throes of a pandemic! What is wrong with these people?

OMG

Corona is for China not for America but America must go back to the humble beginnings (IN GOD WE TRUST) God is king of kings do you believe that? America still number one ☝️ and strong 💪 🇱🇷🇮🇱🇨🇩God bless America again and again and forever more

Solution is drug and cure

Because Americans are Sick and Tired of the way you Democrats have turned Covid Political... Pelosi sending in Bills with BS packed in it, politicians families out on Vacation, people are being told what to do by people that don’t do the same!! Misinformation, Hydro Works!!

My god whichever one of your snitches wrote this needs to lighten the F up. Ppl were OUTSIDE enjoying the long weekend. Yes, the pool at the Ozarks Park was way too full, we’ve seen the pic 100 times this weekend. But the rest of this article is completely fear mongering.

Oops 😬, God Save America !!

Game over you lose! We're done with the entire sham.

Americans are not cowards. Well at least not the majority!

I won’t shame you. But will ask who you expect to take care of you if you wind up in hospital? Medical people who have been pleading with you to take care of yourselves by doing exactly what you didn’t do?Luckily for you, they’ve taken an oath to be saints.

Just goes to show YOU, CNN just how many people listen to you and your phony reports.

And the consequences of this would be China's fault, right? realDonaldTrump GOP foxnewsalert foxnewsradio CGTNOfficial

They're getting that healthy vitamin D.... Good for them... But thanks mom for worrying. CNN doesn't seem to worry about the suicides that will take place because of the to long lockdown. 40 million jobs lost.. but hey Media loves the lockdown. Good ratings

For all the people that said wearing a mask at the beach for your own safety is taking away your rights I ask if a lifeguard at the beach is telling you not to go in the water because is not safe is he or she taking a way your rights to go in the water any time you want to?

These fools should be denied medical attention and be fined... let them have the “freedom” they feel they want but not at our expense. Let them lay all over each other but not take the intelligent rational people with them. And oh yeah no stimulus for them!

People are tired. Corona or not life has to go on.

The killer is president and the resident of your country

100k AMERICANS DEAD!! MORE THAN LIKELY WAY MORE. If ALL the states correctly reported (the actual numbers. Not extras or hiding numbers) then we could fight this the right way. It all starts at the top. Trump blew it when it first broke out. And has blown it the whole time.

End the Scam-Demic! The people know! Masks do nothing! CNN is a fake news propaganda outlet!

What did trumpet think

Called fucking freedom!

No problem!

GOD SAVE US

that is why I don't go to the beach when these morons are here......

OMG, appalling! People had the audacity to disobey their governors commands to maintain social distancing and wear masks. They should all be arrested. And all those who are pushing for We The People’s obedience and compliance, this video is who you are:

Single largest death toll from COVID and you people still don’t ‘get it’. You my friends are the worlds cautionary tale. See what happens when you elect an idiot for President?

They are nuts!

Frightening!

Second wave and guess what...Trump will nit close city's down so everyone will die because they are so dumb to do yhis.

Let them be..its their own choice...

When life gets back to normal for them, We need all these shelter in place sheep to drive 35 mph from now on because I do not want my odds to stay as high to die on the road as it is now to catch COVID. I figure they can save about 20000+ lives a year (include me) if they abide.

Let the resurgent begin.

Freedom shouldn’t trigger CNN or their gullible viewers

Why are the death rates so high in dem ran states?

Corona buffet!!

Wow! Fake photoshop photo much?

Look at all of the stupid white people.

Forrest Gump said 'Stupid is what stupid does'. LOL

Amazing to see people not falling for Leftist politicians lies.

and? we flattened the curve! that’s all we were asked to do. stay focused! stop moving the goal.

Watch the number spike

CORONAVIRUS 101

Looks fake....no wonder you are treated as fake..if you took a shot above that’s the true tell of distancing or not....not from an angle

Guess nobody cares anymore scary situation

Still waiting for your headline that the virus has a 99% survival rate unless you’re 65 or older and have underlying conditions. Or don’t report and keep showing everyone you have an agenda

Kinda like the Virginia Governor

美国人会对殡葬行业做出贡献的。😂

And ? So what?

And the media is freaking out because people don’t buy their panic anymore.

Karen is CNNLOL!

A free country, a free virus. lol

Here’s a thought for . You have lied about so many things that people no longer believe your B.S. Get it? You have become a danger to the world because no one is buying what you have to say.....even if it’s true and should be heeded. Shame on you.

Awesome 😎

The case fatality rate in the United States is now three percent. The conclusion is that too many people didn't check it out. Terrible America!

Time to move on

Sacrificial humans? Pray not!

praying....

Nothing interesting in getting eaten by sharks 🦈. 😂

Just the way it should be👍🏻 We are a free people

The contagion will only get worse. Lots of foolish people out there

Time Bomb Set: 2 weeks from NOW COVID__19

You guys do know alcohol flowing with drugs & sexual acquaintances changes the formula by exponents. People aren’t just close in groups, hook-ups are happening...I’ve been asking how dating, sex, casual sex, etc. are supposed to occur under natural hormone & sex drives.

That's the natural course of events.

Yikes. 😬

Disaster imminent..... incoming travel ban for US citizen

This is fake news those pictures are from last year!

If you’re afraid, you should stay home!

Herd immunity?

Finally!!!

Photo of CNN employee beach party.

No government is above the law if you unhappy here is to write too or call personally I’m writing ✍️.

Stop living in fear. Or fear shaming those that live their lives.

Good, glad to see people are back to NORMAL LIFE, NOT THE STUPID “NEW NORMAL” not the BS scared sheep tactics the media tries to continue to push. AMERICANS are done with the control tactics, if you’re scared stay in, everyone else ENJOY what you’re doing,

Nor condoms for that matter

Overly photoshopped

Ignorance kills.

Callous yet realistic understanding of the heterogeneous nature of this difficult situation.

who gives a shit?

It's time to let the stupid people die. They were warned

All CT images showed no sign of COVID-19 infection. No severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections was detected in 455 contacts by nucleic acid test.

If you wish to wear a mask , distance jump through hoops feel free

$20 trillion economy billions change hands everday on stock exchange most get by on less than $30k time for a basic income from stock trading tax and consjmer sales money will be spent on goods made and sold by rich companies economy a circle

Couldn't be a more perfect way to celebrate those who have fought and died for the freedom to do so 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Just like Toronto-Trinity Bellwoods Park, without the beach

There are American detainees who were severely tortured, one of whom was killed under torture, and we see it, but we did not find any interest from you until we explain to the American people what happened I was hoping that the American people knew what happened😭😭😭

Because we are done with your fear mongering.

Yes! People finally living their lives! Sunlight and Vitamin D kill the corona virus. Everybody to the beach!

Today's new cases , a different picture !

yeah and 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕 for fear mongering

This can really be a huge problem, I believe it will burst out and bigger than before, God help us.

TrumpGolfsYouDie

Oh no... looks like a lot of people quit watching Chinese Communist Network! GASP!

In about two weeks, you will see more cases and deaths due to this arrogant flaunting of disregarding rules that keep us all safe from this awful virus AND DEATH! Almost 100,000 Americans have lost their lives, some due to just that kind of behavior!

Go away CNN. There is nothing right with you. 100% negative spin to make Trump look as bad you can.

It’s going to take for us to know someone personally who we care deeply about to die from this before these people or people like them to really take this seriously.

By Flag Day let's look at how well we're doing with FlattenTheCurve

Ignorance is not a virtue. Do they have already a vaccine against COVID-19 or that's just stupidity?

Keep the 49th parallel permanently closed 🇨🇦

RalphNortham though.... MrBlackFacedBabyKiller

Good for them enjoying life

Ignorant people in large crowds- dangerous ☹

Just stop! Where were all you concerned souls when 50,000 a year where dying from opioids and another 50,000 from suicide? Seems only the contagious diseases are worthy of all this feigned moral conscience, yet millions are unemployed over a 003% mortality rate. Sheep.

Why are you silent about this?

NOT GONNA END WELL Things aren't gonna end well for 🇺🇸 in this pandemic 2020 will end w a coup d'etat, if Trump loses the election. He won't turn over power willingly. 🇺🇸 will suffer catastrophic deaths from the virus for a lack of coordination, even if a vaccine is found.

Because we are lazy, selsish and entitled in this counrty.

The beach will be there next year, will you?

A lot of sick people in 5 to 10 days

Annnnnnd.....cue a second more deadly wave......ACTION

Nothing to worry. The virus will disappear like a miracle. One day you will not remember anything.

Awesome

Get sick at your own risk that’s how it should be .

Good !

I love how you panic mongers always choose camera angles that create the illusion of people not social distancing. Telephoto lenses are good for that.

That’s bc we are over it. This is Ohio’s deaths. Barely has affected anyone under 70. 70% of deaths were in nursing homes! 70%!!

Doctored photo, the angle is suspicious

Walking virus, walking dead

Shut up fake news! Trump 4 more!

Because America is sick and tired of DNC Governors. NYGovCuomo PhilMurphyNJ GovWhitmer GovPritzker GovSisolak TomWolfPA NC_Governor and the other socialists who hate Americans

Now take the picture without the lens that makes everyone look closer than they really are.

😭😭😭

They just don’t care. People are so dumb.

Why has California shut everything down but allowed Lakers to practice this past month? Why isn't CNN outraged?

On July Fourth there will be fewer people. I just hope these morons don’t infect others.

Two weeks later....

CNN (China News Network) not happy about people ignoring orders from Marxist Socialist Democrats & liberals! SCIENCE shows Covid 19 virus dies after 1-1/2 minutes in direct sunlight. Imagine... SCIENCE destroys the Democrat & liberal Adam bull-Schiff lies about Covid 19.

Oh flip me

This is totally unacceptable. It has been proven by AI masks and distancing reduces the virus by 80%. That a lot of deaths . covid

Here you go, cowards. Keep up the fear mongering, China News Network. Your irrelevance grows by the second. If you are afraid, stay home and stay out of the way. The world will turn without you.

Americans not living in fear. Oh the horror.

Oh ffs. Good on them! is utter garbage.

America will find out its place in Hstry shortly🤷🏾‍♂️

Because a big part of you, US people, always make decisions based on politics. Why should a virus response be handled differently because of you political orientation? Only in USA and Brazil.

You can buy a drone for a few hundred dollars...could you get one and give us some aerial photos? Wtf!

I am on my way...

Hell yes! MSM nor the government will dictate citizens right to their own mental well-being! Get out of your damn bubbles and live the lives YOU have the right to live. FEAR is NO way to live life!

4% will die in 2 weeks or kill grandma

Death wish?

God help us!!!!

Any pictures like this from other countries?

Anything on BELMAR NJ last week

COVID-19. A real educational presentation. A lot of information. Stick with it to the end.

Not one of those people should be able to use our hospitals when they get sick. They knew and made a choice. Let them be free, just not free to take a resource from some one who they will give this virus too.FoxNews GOP

The pandemic isn’t over because there’s a holiday and you’re BORED!

Joseph Goebbels would be proud of you. Of course he didn't possess the technology you have today to present photos in such a way to shape the narrative.

Hello vitamin D..... great defense against covid

It’s about time to get back to normal. The curve is flat. No reason for anything to be shut down or restricted.

Nice view... they are the so called advanced & smart people , enjoying life to maximum. 👻

Because people are done with this fake news hysteria and panic. This virus has over a 99% survival rate. Jeez Karen

people are sick and tired of the stupid phrase social distancing. I can’t wait until someone has the nerve to tell me I am not social distancing enough...... can’t wait.

Taking back our FREEDOM!!!

TedLouisJacques

Good!

Total ignorance!!

Good. Can let you nazi win. This isn’t China. We’re Armed.

People use memorial day as a party day,it is not about people who have sacrificed their lives for all of us.l have never understood happy memorial day,it should be a day to honor our heros a day of self reflection.

ibedawn No cops there to harass them either

Looks like many people want to become ‘Memories’ for their loved ones! I am convinced there are lots of really dumb people in the world

'Merica!

Wtf is wrong with people? So selfish and arrogant

Do you think any of these people are going to regret their holiday? regretmyholiday.

It’s like a smorgasbord for COVID.....

A testimony that news and government lies. There was no virus to begin with. Fabricated crisis.

One good reason the Canadian Border is kept closed.

In the next month or so Schools will deciding whether they can open in the fall. When they look at the numbers in the weeks following these gatherings who’s going to blame them when they stay shut?

The intelligence of the human race is overrated

If your over 60 or you have health conditions you need to follow all the steps.. otherwise a normal healthy person has a. .00000 whatever chance of dying from it

Evidence that logic and reason still exists in humanity. The masses are not buying this, they are just going along with it to avoid fines. The RNA strand called covid-19 has never been proven to be the cause of any disease. CNN has lost all credibility.

I see many dead people.

our grandparents/Great grandparents were the greatest generation. Folks, we’ve reached the DGAF-est Gen. sad

I wouldn’t wear a mask to the beach either

Good.. Get out,, work,, dont listen to the governor's trying to close your state. They work for us not the other way around

Suicide beach.

This picture is probably from last year.

It’s over FAKE NEWS. No more fear porn.

Wow !! As an older person that tells me that the young do not care about anyone, yet who will they blame when they get the virus

We have our cards. We don’t need a mask.

WE WILL PAY THE ULTIMATE PRICE FOR ALL THIS STUPIDITY.

May natural selection does its job already.

People want to go out feel the sun...Natural herbal plants are of low cost and low toxicity they contain several biologically active constituents which may not only act as antiviral agents but also stimulate and build the immune system to fight the virus..

Because no one believes the lies anymore CNN, you’ve cried wolf for years now and only ended up embarrassing yourselves over and over.

Movie Virus 1980 becomes a reality today. For the price watch it FREE on YouTube: Then buckle up buttercups!

full freedom

Why do we care anymore what happens to these people? I don’t. They’ve been told. Let them do what they want. FuckThem. Let them fight for a ventilator & a hospital bed if there are any available. I don’t want to hear any complaints from them.

You can trust Joe Biden to rebuild China’s economy.

This is insanity!! Many white Americans be acting like stiffnecked stubborn folks and that would be their greatest undoing. It's just a pity that innocent people will suffer for their foolishness (since COVID-19 is highly contagious) 😩

Karen News Network

Gosh😱

One wrong sneeze at a beach will infect 100s

And? They're done with your fearmongering BS.

Africa, Asia, Sub Continent, Europe, UK, Russia & Canada: they are all practicing social distancing. The USA has more resources than any other country but shows no desire to work together.

Tell us some lies about it.

Nobody is buying the bullcrap put out by CNN and other liberal organizations anymore.

Trump 2020 by a Landslide! KAG 🇺🇸

social distancing or wearing masks - a new communitarian rule? The third way is no way - Jan Theuninck, 2005

We are so fu.k.d this never going away I guarantee it !

너무 좋은겁니다 더좋은 방법은 장수 기술을 알려주면 금상첨화 입니다

Yeah,looks like fun!

ALL of these people are social distancing - society has disdain for them. I believe you mean none of them are PHYSICALLY distancing. One would think that in your line of work you understand that words matter.

Although many are dying from their neighbor, they play Game on their life. PLEASE ALL DO not allow yourself to die By your carelessness. Government has to do something on this.

No self-control. No care for health & lives of frontline workers or anyone else. This is what the American people have become, weak & self-obsessed. Just like the Romans as Rome fell. Wasters. memorialdayweekend2020 Americans COVID19 StayAtHomeSaveLives

So what this fake virus is fake like you...

😱😱

Can’t keep everyone in your scare tactic little bubble cnn.

If people partied in swimsuits at nursing homes in New York, I’d be concerned.

People are tired of your fear mongering and corona-phobia. Please stop

Some people think the Coronavirus is a political issue and doesn’t exist in the real life!

Do you think any of these people are going to wish for a do-over? regretmyholiday.

Oh no, it’s like they’re not living in fear!

A visual representation of 100k people. America can acclimate to any horror given the chance.

Covid-19 is a great way to eliminate the dumber part of USA.

Fancy having all that space in America, and these arse-holes are choosing to sit on top of each other 🙄
