[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 7982348, member: 22779"] No, I get that there are issues. Of course there are. But, this flat out distrust of the government, when the government says, "Hey, the doctors are telling us to stay at home, so, folks, stay at home" and people just refuse to believe. I was reading about the boycott Costco movement in the States because Costco insists that patrons wear a mask. People were actually trying to claim that this is against their rights. Sorry, no. It's really not. There's nothing in the Constitution that says that a private business cannot tell you to wear something before coming in. No shirt, no shoes, no service isn't a joke. One woman actually talked about how wearing a mask had negative health effects because of restrictions of oxygen. :erm: If your mask is so fine that it restricts oxygen, it's not a mask, it's a plastic bag. Please don't put that on your head. And, there is a difference too. Some countries are protesting bungled government actions in combatting corona virus. Ok, fair enough. These chuckleheads are claiming that it's a government conspiracy to take away your rights and turn America into a police state. It's mind blowing. Then again, people here in Japan are pissed off because a local cartoonist (Doremon) had his character tell them that if they stay home and wear their masks, things will be better in the future. And Doremon knows because he's from the future. BIt tone deaf maybe, but, sheesh. People get pissed about the weirdest things. [/QUOTE]
