[pct-l] I reject the police state / I will not comply

[Drew Smith]

You just described a majority of the US population (although you left out diabetics). Are their lives less valuable than yours?

Your philosophy seems to be that others must completely curtail their freedom of movement (or risk death) so that you can pursue you leisure activities unimpaired.

Do you also crave the freedom to drive in the left hand lane (if others don’t like it they can just get off the road!) or to smoke in public places (if those liberals don’t want cancer they can just stay home!).

Like it or not, infectious diseases are a communal problem and have to be dealt with by communal measures. That means giving up some measure of freedom now, so that all can enjoy freedom later. Particularly freedom from the fear of death, which is the most fundamental freedom of all.

Take a deep breath, step back and try to see the big picture.

Best, Drew
