Apparently, many people don’t like freedom and the risks it brings. If you chose to not go somewhere, OK. To have the government shut your businesses and make people stay isolated seems a bit of overkill. I guess some like fascist maneuvers by our “leaders”. Some mayor stopped the sales of guns and ammo. I guess that will stop people from shooting any virus that gets on their property. Smart thinking there...Genius!

This is not just about your right to go somewhere.

This is also about the people you might spread it to, if you get it. The overburdened hospital that you're going to want treatment from when it turns out you didn't just get a mild case. The 70 year old man who is going to be denied a ventilator because you are younger and more likely to live.

This is not a time to think only of yourself and to claim any restrictions are tyrannical.

This will pass. It's temporary.

If you can't see the other side, you need to spend some time on your heart, because you don't have much of one.
