Good. They can't prove she has Ebola, or that she is a danger. The quarantine is just feeding public hysteria.

This fear-mongering is just a ploy to further erode our rights. Whether it's drugs, terror, or public health, the government isn't concerned about your safety. It's concerned about expanding their power base.

Even if they try to be helpful, they fail miserably. You could argue the CDC has made things worse in regards to Ebola.

Uh, let this thing hit India or Central America and I don't think you will be so smug.

Agreed - it's a slippery slope to restrict a person's Freedom "just in case" and "for the common good" and I have to cede to the Constitution no matter what my emotions tell me. Judge Napolitano of FOX News spelled it out beautifully.

It's a good theory except for the fact that the people on your side are hard core leftists. I think the WANT Ebola to be here so they can do this and so they are against quarantines for now....but as soon as it gets too big to stop that's when they'll be all for it.

You’re always free to pay her a visit before November 10, if you’d like.
