Suddenly there are people across the country that are
protesting the national lockdown that prevents a lot of us from going out in
public, such as staying out of bars and restaurant and other public gatherings.
It is understandable that some people are upset that they have lost their jobs.
But it is appalling that they are out protesting rules that are designed to
keep some people from dying.
After watching
a video from the BBC, in an article called “Coronavirus: US protests
against and for lockdown restrictions,” I saw a man with a sign that said “live
free or die.” Who gets to decide which ones of us get to die in order for them
to live free? Another sign said “My
Civil Rights Are Essential.” This person’s freedom is more important
than other people’s lives. Many of these people are young enough and probably
healthy enough that they are in no real danger of dying from the virus. Other
people are not so lucky. People such as I may be over 6o as I am, or they may
have diabetes or another condition that makes them more vulnerable to dying.
Where is OUR right to live?
These protesters are so outrageous that I have noticed some
people who are really upset by
it on Facebook. For example:

Connell They Should Not be admitted to
hospitals or given ventilators if they choose to be stupid!

I am sick of people advocating
for opening up when medical experts are not advocating for such WITHOUT
ADEQUATE TESTING.
I ask each of these people to
tell me which kids they are willing to have die (Dr. Oz says 2-3%). I ask
them which others. You? Me? Relatives? Neighbors? Church friends? More
teachers? More frontline workers? More healthcare providers? Only people they
don't know? Only people in other communities?
I want to know their CUTOFF
NUMBER OF DEATHS before they want to continue staying shutdown? It apparently
is not 38,979, the count as of this AM.
And then there is the religious groups claiming that the
governor of Kansas
And now this...BREAKING: A
federal judge has temporarily blocked Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly’s order limiting
in-person religious gatherings to 10 people.
Churches that have sued
will be able to hold in-person services Sunday.
More soon from @MichaelStavola1

Barbara
Yarnell Chamberlin What a foolish decision.
Some of these protesters are waving American flags, while
others have that old rattle snake flag adopted by the Tea Party. I’ve seen
protesters vigorously waving those flags as if they are trying to ward off evil
spirits.
The Coronovirus has brought out the worst in some Americans.
Freedom does not allow people to choose reckless behavior that will result in
people’s deaths. No one has the right to play god and decide who gets to live
and who doesn’t. These protesters are selfish conservative people who believe
their personal rights are more important than their neighbor’s lives. These
people are disgusting.
