    It’s so weird that they freaked out this much over just this Eclipse. There was an eclipse last year and I didn’t hear a peep from these people.

      Maybe because last year they didn’t have Marjorie Taylor-Greene tell them that earthquakes and eclipse are a warning from god?

      2017 was all “Look at the science! Isn’t this cool!”

      But then THAT path only brushed the Bible Belt…

      I think it’s because giant singing and man-eating plants are a real concern.

      They happen about every 18 months, and thus are a rather normal and common natural phenomenon.

      Crazies gonna crazy, though.

        Every 6 months really. They just happen in places people aren’t a lot of the time. Heck next year north America will get another eclipse… But you’d have to travel to northern Canada in early spring to see it and it doesn’t sound nearly as fun a vacation spot as Mexico I bet to the chasers.
