    Those who do not give up an unessential liberty right now deserve neither a hospital bed nor a ventilator.

    There is a big difference. It's legal to carry a gun but it's not legal to carry a gun into your yard to cause you harm. Like it or not you have to go out sometime. To buy groceries or whatever unless you have somebody to do it for you. Do you want to stand in the checkout line with some ,moron who thinks God will send him to hell if he doesn't attend His Church of the Holy Infectious. Do you want to push the same shopping cart he just used?

    The govenment already dictates some things you can or can't do. Drink a fifth of whisky and get behind the wheel and you get arrested. Rightfully so. Your right to freedom ends when your actions cause harm to others.

    I am ok with everthing Trump is doing because if we just reset and go back to normal right now we would not have enough hospitals and medical equipment to support the people with coronavirus who need treatment and the people who need every other treatment outside that. There would be system overload.

    I don't have to like it but I have to do it.

    People spread the flu every year and it kills thousands here every year.

    People drive cars, get in wrecks, kill people every year.

    There are known risks we live with. This is just another....

    I know a guy who goes to church in Livonia or maybe it's Hooterville. What's the difference. He says every Sunday the members all bring delicious food from home and they have a feast.

    OK. Go to church with the other morons. Just don't try to come near me or I'll shoot you before you come within 6 feet. I'll tell the judge I was practicing social distancing. Probably tell him through Skype or Zoom.
