    Something to think about:

    Those of you who think wearing masks to protect the vulnerable and elderly members of our society is violating your "freedom" and "rights" are forgetting that many of those same elderly people were forcibly drafted into the military, gave up years of their lives, saw their friends die, and suffered irreparable psychological damage to protect your right to bitch about wearing a mask.

    Less than 4% and they recover just fine. You guys are losing your minds over literally nothing. Look at what happened in '69 did we all run and hide? No they had the largest gathering of hippies ever assembled and put on a concert.

    Then they should stay home if they are scared of "life". Life is a cruel bitch. Everyone should be happy its 2020 and not 1500.

    No its really not, it is very factual. If you are elderly, sickly or just scared then those people should stay at home or do the best they possibly can to protect themselves. It is not incumbent upon me or anyone else to completely change our way of life because of them. It isn't our responsibility to close every business down and ruin the millions of lives that those actions will cause just because you or Bengal or Winston or that crazy admiral don't want to go outside.

    Look, we are not without empathy however life is full of challenges and keeping OUR families alive, our livelihoods and well being should be paramount to us all. There is a bigger issue at play behind the curtain here and it is ugly and you don't want to see it. The best way to avoid that is to get people back to living.

    How is wearing a mask completely changing your life? Never thought of you as a drama queen.

    Nope if you are going to die from this you are going to die. All shut down did was slow death rate but you cant hide forever

    No matter how many people die from this disease it is going to pale in comparison to the harm done by having now over 33 M people out of work. That is not even mentioning what has been done to our civic freedoms...just think about this... people are being told that they will go to jail for going to church or to get a hair cut. That is the nasty truth of this farce....our freedoms (all of them) should be protected.
