Waiting for the public to find their balls in the fight for their freedom from tyrannical governors

So what you originally said was people over 65 or immunocompromised people need to quarantine while nobody else does. What you now said is those people need to choose whether they want to quarantine or be homeless/poor if they depend on an income from a job where they interact with people under 65.
So in reality, your first statement wasn’t what you actually meant. You simply do not value the lives and/or livelihoods of people over 65.
I’m a far way from being in that age range and it’s still clear how messed up that is. Being older or ill should not be a death sentence and that is discriminatory.
Aren't you a member of the public? Lead the way.
what about the tens of thousands who protest together? Are they selfish too? Good thing the governor put restrictions on those events instead of taking part in them.....

You know what is sad for me ? Just seeing some 80 year man or women driving in their car looking terrified while wearing a mask and gloves... it is heartbreaking since we all at one time have known an elderly person who we cared about....at some point this fragility has become more manifested .... a time in life where they should be looking to smell the roses and bask in the sunlight their final years may be only those of fear and uncertainty... when I went today for the covid19 test it sort of hit me...the sad reality of the world and what it has become ... it is not a happy place by no means.
Of course they do, but if he’s looking to reduce risk from large house parties, why make people having weddings or funerals suffer?
Exactly my feelings. When we were flattening the curve like Murphy told us, I obeyed rigorously and thought it was the responsible thing to do. But now the curve has been flattened yet he keeps on imposing more restrictions. The tiniest bump up and we hear the data supports increased restrictions. Are we in the he's now trying to eradicate the virus phase?
Do you think it should be a death sentence at a Hackensack Staples? If no, then it sounds like you’d agree that it shouldn’t be a death sentence in this case. If yes, then you must agree with the actions of the attacker at Staples.
If he’s trying to reduce risk of spreading he should ban funerals and weddings like he did in the spring.
The point is, he only really wanted to target large house parties and this is a non event. From 100 to 25, omg the horror.
Sounds reasonable to me. Things are upticking a tad, so you pump the breaks a little. Reducing “non-essential” gatherings seems like a good place to start.
Must and should are two different words.
My Mom and Dad are 87 and 90, respectively. They are taking it super safe and do the social distancing thing very well. But they also have a great support system in their family (my siblings and I along with 8 very helpful grandkids). Not everyone has that.
Those that don’t do have to venture out and deal with all the risks (including the non-COVID19 ones) associated with getting older in today’s World.
I don’t think anyone MUST quarantine or be forced to do so. But some probably SHOULD strongly consider it for themselves.
Funerals and weddings weren’t essential in March, April and May but are now?
It is said that life is short,but Murphy has succeeded in proving that chestnut to be a fallacy.This 2 weeks really feels as if it were 20.
I disagree with the overall viewpoint and think it’s a more complex issue but that was fair and well reasoned. A rarity for these threads!
The governor. Isn't that why we have these threads?
It's the same people it always was but nice try.
Still waiting for that magical disappearance?
If you ban funerals, nobody will die. Problem solved.
Oh they’ll still die. Their bodies will just be piled up, unfortunately l, like in March April and May.
im not saying he should ban funerals. I’m saying he should ban everything or nothing
I think we should be a little more open by now and those that feel uncomfortable should be extra careful....which can mean many different things for different people.
Yet as has been shown the only verified mail in/harvesting fraud in '18 was by Republicans in NC
It's so cute you and others keep ignoring that fact. Guess it never made it into the talking points.
If things get bad enough again, those gatherings will be shut down too. This really isn’t difficult to understand. The worse the spread, the tighter the restrictions.
But many people who would take advantage spread to others. In NJ Rutgers football, Lifeguards in a couple towns, and the HS graduation in Sea Girt are recent examples.
