  • One the one hand, I am angry that they are endangering there family and the community, but on the other hand.... People who were in a financial pickle before this shit has now been drained out of money... Despite quarantine rules, people are being kicked out of there homes cause they can’t pay there bills... I live in Michigan, one of the shittiest places for this quarantine, and seeing how this has been handled has made me loose faith in the people Incharge of this.... Yes safety is important, and sacrificing rights are somewhat ok, but how far does shit like this goes before it begins tainting and even ruining this country... You have people becoming homeless, people arrested trying to feed there children, and unable to even live... We aren’t being treated like humans, we are being treated like a invasive species.... [spoiler]quarantine has been rough for not just me, not just Michigan, but the entire world, and all the leaders have done is bicker and blame each other for possibly creating this shithole..so sorry if I sound mad, cause I am... my graduation, my entrance to adulthood has been delayed, and I’m pissed that people don’t think about every population... The people will soon have to decide, when is this too much for humanity, when will people no longer think like humans... [/spoiler]

  • Complete lunacy is what I feel towards those protesting for reopening. As for those bringing guns... that's terrorism.

    People do a lot of crazy stuff but I dont really care what other people do if it doesn’t affect me. This is something that does affect me and other people. Luckily here in canada pretty much everyone is being good about it but if I was in one of these places in the states with protests I would be furious, those people are putting my life and everyone else’s in jeopardy by congregating. I’m only 17. I don’t know what it’s like to need a job to provide for my family so maybe I have no place. But it seems like the best thing you can do for your family right now is stay home and minimize exposure. Protests won’t make the virus go away, we are stuck like this and there is literally nothing we can do about it except stay home and try as hard as possible not to spread it more. Being radical and standing up to things that can’t be changed is childish if you ask me especially when you are endangering other people.

    Stupid and selfish. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry when a Dallas beauty shop owner was convicted of violating an order to shutter her business. The Judge gave her a means to avoid jail time if she'd just apologize in court. She refused and went on a rant about how her people needed to "feed their kids". Never occured to her that kids need to be **alive** in order to require feeding....and their parents need to be alive in order to feed them......and that what she was doing was endangering all of their lives.

    • COVID-19 and shelter in place requirements are definitely not the kind of things that require violent resistance. People have a right to protest but bringing guns is sending the message they're looking to start trouble to enforce their own solution, not work together to find one. When protesting an overreaching government or "tyranny", "My way or the highway!" isn't a good look.

    • I don't like it at all, I think it's really dumb and careless... However, maybe that's just Darwinism at work here. Thin the herd?
