And why is this a national emergency?

Yes, because they get to define an emergency- we don’t. Could be anything. I can’t believe how easy people are giving it all up.

What will you do when they start going house to house for guns as part of the upcoming forced quarantines?

I swear I can’t believe what has happened to FR!

Tell that to those who lived through WW2.

LOL. My father was working on the Virginia coast when Pearl Harbor happened. Everyone was told they must have blackout curtains on their windows if they wanted to have house lights on after dark. That was to prevent light from exposing freighters to lurking U-boats.

Who knows how legitimate that was. But everyone complied. No one whined about it.

“Nooo I’m supposed to have all my rights even during a national emergency!”

Not sure all of these things are rights. You’re licensed by the state/city to do business, esp. sell alcohol. I suppose they can halt/amend that on a short term basis. It’s like driving, driving is a privilege, not a right.

Look, I’m not in favor of these things, but this is what people think must be done. I don’t see how we push this past six weeks at the absolute outside, but we’ll see.

If it’s an over reaction it’s not just Trump and/or those who hate him over reacting.

I for one am very glad that I have to work at home the next two weeks. Quite frankly I think my company got sick of us freaking out every half hour or so.
