Yup. Taking advantage of a scared public and scoring political points by imposing an unnecessary quarantine may not have been the WORST thing Christie has done as governor, but it was pretty bad...
MeganC, the Bill of Rights does not guarantee any suppositious right to violate quarantine. It is also a state matter, not a federal matter.
CoaC, there were no political points to score here. It was just common sense.
l90, she can call herself whatever she wants, but she spent a month in a hospital in Sierra Leone during an Ebola outbreak. She could easily have been exposed.
She had one job: to stay home for 21 days (the incubation period plus test result waiting period if she was exposed) and then get tested after that period to show no exposure.
But she felt her desire to go shopping and biking was more important than making sure that she wasn't exposing others to a deadly disease.
She's an obnoxious leftist who doesn't care about actual Constitutional rights, and she's looking for free money from NJ taxpayers and ME taxpayers.
