There is nothing stopping you from staying in your own personal lockdown. Let us live our lives!

The problem with letting idiots “live their lives” is that you spread virus around everywhere, killing people, while out there living your life.

My health, safety and life are more important than you being allowed to go to Starbucks.

Nailed it.

As a single person in a 600 square foot condo, I hated lockdowns, and I never really followed them in the sense that you stay literally indoors in your home. Yeah, screw that. Fine with me if you like staying home, but don’t you dare impose that on my vaccinated, mask-complient arse. No I will not stay home.

Big talker. You will stay home if you are ordered to by law. That’s what was missing from the last lockdown. No teeth in the order. Next time we’ll go the Canadian route. Get caught outside, go to jail, stay in jail for the duration of the lockdown.

Not sure if this is a joke?

Filling up prisons would make the pandemic worse. And why discourage low risk outdoor activity at all? Sun and fresh air keep you well. Access to the outdoors is our birthright as living beings.

Especially when they released or refrained from jailing the actual criminals in many areas.

Newsflash! If you are violating a lockdown/stay-at-home order YOU ARE AN ACTUAL CRIMINAL!

I’d much rather see some petty thief or drug dealer released to make room for people who are out spreading a deadly contagious illness.

People are always spreading deadly, contagious illnesses. This is part of life. You are welcome to stay locked up inside at all times.

Yeah, no. We’re not always in a freaking PANDEMIC, but hey, you tried.

Did they? They decided that your freedoms are less important than theirs. If you quarantine at home, that's your business. You don't have a right to force everyone else to do so as well.

A pandemic that has an extremely high survival rate. This is not ebola.
Lock downs are totally unnecessary and are proving to be more harmful than the virus itself. I recall a leader last year saying, "Don't make the cure worse than the virus."

NP... Woah. NO.

If the irresponsible and selfish behavior of other people is causing the pandemic to spread and drag on then that is taking away our freedoms and damn well IS our business and DOES give us the right to start imposing things on them to try and rein the pandemic in. Clearly you haven't thought about this from anyone's perspective other than your own selfish, irresponsible one.

COVID killed 600,000 Americans and you want to shrug it off like it's no big deal.

Wait. I got this message yesterday in my Twitter notifications:



If this is the case, as CDC says it is.....

1. Why do you care who is vaccinated and who isn't? Seems as if both vaccinated and unvaccinated are capable of spreading the virus.
2. Why do you believe an unvaccinated person is irresponsible and selfish and endangering the public anymore than a vaccinated person?

Isn't it all about personal choice and risk assessment at this point?

Other than for a few weeks or so, people could always go to Starbucks.

The US never locked down as much as crazy people like you wanted, and we’re not going back to even that level of restrictions.

So, you’re going to need to live with risk going forward. The rest of us are not going to change our behavior to accommodate your anxiety.

You may be in luck, OP. I don’t think we’ll completely shut down again. But I do think telework and virtual everything will continue for a while. I do love virtual medicine!

I loved not having to commute into DC and deal with not only the homeless people outdoors but also the loser strivers in the office that did nothing but sit for 10 hours a day. I can get my work done and enjoy the easy family life out in the burbs.

[Anonymous]

I think you’re serious, wow. I honestly didn’t know how bad the homeless situation had gotten until our friends visited and witnessed the wonders of the Watergate homeless encampment.
Can someone be a loser and a striver at the same time? Example?
Anyway, glad you are enjoying life more.

The city you live in is a dump, that's why your friends are shocked when they visit.

Really? The vaccine works. This means 90-97% of the vaccines people do not get it. It is spreading among the unvaccinated. The country did not reach herd immunity because of people like you. The unvaccinated are the problem and reason another lockdown and mask wearing are coming back.
