Evangeline Lilly Won’t Self-Quarantine, Values ‘Freedom’ Over Her Life
New York Post ^ | March 19, 2020 | Francesca Bacardi

Evangeline Lilly is taking a stand against self-quarantining during the coronavirus pandemic.

The “Ant-Man and the Wasp” star, 40, posted a photo of her “morning tea” on Instagram and said it was “business as usual” as she dropped her children off at their activities.

“Just dropped my kids off at gymnastics camp. They all washed their hands before going in. They are playing and laughing. #businessasusual,” she captioned the photo, which immediately prompted questions from fans about why her kids were still going to gymnastics camp.

She obviously doesn’t care if she infects my Mom, or someone else’s elderly or vulnerable relatives. IQ < Age.

Having the “freedom” to do something doesn’t necessarily make it the right thing to do.

I agree - government will kill more than the virus when this is over.

If she ends up responsible for someone’s illness or even death, I hope criminal charges are filed against her. Willfully and intentionally endangering others in a criminal way.

So life stops and we shut the country and economy down based on the State of Fear induced by the MSM and Social Media?

Depraved indifference might be a good start

Anyone remember the nurse who was exposed to ebola in Africa then came here and held a press conference crying that she wasn’t going to quarantine? I think she was upset she had to poop in a garbage bag lined bucket to contain any possible contamination. The fallout against her was incredible- justifiably so.

Yeah "diseased whore." And you're an ignorant jackass who can't wait for the tyrant's boot. From the article: The former “Lost” star said she considers COVID-19 simply a “respiratory flu” and believes the government is taking too much control. “Where we are right now feels a lot too close to Marshall Law [sic] for my comfort already, all in the name of a respiratory flu,” she responded in another comment. “It’s unnerving…Let’s be vigilant right now. And kind. Watchful and gracious — keeping a close eye on our leaders, making sure they don’t abuse this moment to steal away more freedoms and grab more power.” I agree with Lilly.

All of life is risk management decisions. How much isolation in the face of the virus. Whether to arm yourself for protection or rely on law enforcement. Whether to drive an SUV, econo-car/compact, or ride a motorcycle.

Everyone's got different priorities and assigns different weights to the perceived risks and rewards.

Good for her.
Unlike the mini-Mussolini’s here who would want her welded in her house.

I’m tired of the hysteria.

I was about ready to start coughing while going down the aisle of the store today so these panic-shoppers would get the hell out of my way!

It’s an easy choice if you’re only putting your life at risk.

It sounds like she’s risking her father’s life most of all.

Does the article say she has Chinese Flu? I missed it. Why then use the phrase “self-quarantine”?

No sure I would be so willing to risk my kids’ lives.

But, whatever.

As far as I can tell she doesn’t have The Chinese Virus.

Has she tested positive or even have any symptoms?

Indeed. She should apparently be burned at the stake for taking her kids to gymnastics.

A lot of FReepers are starting to remind me of the global warming cultists over this stuff. Like driving a hybrid car, self-quarantine has become a form of virtue signalling.

She played the above average looking girl that everyone was instantly in love with and fought over on the TV show “Lost”
