Okay well my little rural town just went from 10 cases to 27 confirmed cases in a day. Who cares if you're sick of it... do your part. Sorry if that sounds callous but this is a group effort and we need everybody's participation.
NOBODY'S RIGHTS ARE BEING TAKEN AWAY OR INFRINGED UPON. If you really feel like they are, you do not know real oppression.
Kattlelox, I could make a long list, but I'm not going to argue. I just believe that people and businesses are perfectly capable of social distancing, wearing masks, washing their hands, staying home if they need to and so forth without the heavy hand of government enforcing it.
I'm not opposed to doing any of those things, I do them myself, and I would hope that others do them as well. But that should be their own choice.
I'm a very very staunch liberty minded person. So that's where I'm coming from in all of this.
Your rights are not being taken away. Make your list - they're not being taken away. No offense intended, but I question whether or not you know what real oppression looks like if being told to stay home a little while and wear a mask is infringing on your rights, homie.
For the record... it IS still people's choice to wear a mask. I went into a gas station this evening to get some medicine and forgot to wear my mask. Nobody made a stink. I saw people in the grocery store today (only a couple) without masks - nobody stopped them. This is not tyranny, yo. Ain't nobody hanging out your front door with a rifle threatening you to get back inside
OK,
People have been arrested going for a walk
people have been arrested going to a park
people have been arrested for going to get pizza
people have been arrested for holding church
Hefty fines have also been given out.
Right to travel, right to assemble and worship, right to commerce, right to not have hefty fines levied against you. It may not be happening in your neck of the woods (which I'm very grateful for), but it is happening in the US.
And, don't worry, I'm not offended at all. I'm just frustrated and feeling cooped up. Which I'm sure many others feel also. This is just how I react to it.
