[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids' school requires us to attest that we are in compliance with the DC travel policy, meaning we can't travel outside of the DMV unless we quarantine for 3-5 days and take a test before returning to school. We'd like to visit family over memorial day in NJ. Rates are down, vaccinations are up and there has been no change to the policy to reflect that. Any sense of when they will change to a different policy?[/quote] It’s a lot easier to just tell people what they want to hear than it is to comply with these ridiculous, erroneous policies these morons come up with. They want to hear you say “no, I haven’t been anywhere”. So that’s exactly what you should tell them. [/quote] Or you can actually comply with the rules, even if it's sort of inconvenient, which is what we did when we visited family out of town last weekend -- meant we had to stick our kid back into an all-remote class for two days and get some tests. Was it a pain? Yes. Was it the end of the world? No. Why do you get to decide that (a) the rules don't apply to you because you think they're dumb and (b) lying to the authorities to cover it up is okay? [/quote] When the mayor and city govt allows thousands of people to come into the city for protests and speeches (last August for the MOW anniversary, for example) without enforcing the 14-day quarantine rule that was in effect at the time, then I’m under no obligation whatsoever to comply with the same rules because I went to FL for a week. If thousands of people get a pass to attend a protest or commemoration, then I grant myself the same pass. You wanna be the most honest sheep in the herd? Knock yourself out. The only person impressed by your self-martyrdom is you. The rest of us laugh at you. I do what I want. Because that’s exactly what our “leaders” do. They do what they want. So do I. [/quote] That's a great attitude that will definitely help us all get out of this situation as quickly as possible, I'm glad you're looking out for the common good and not just doing whatever is most convenient for you.[/quote]
