Cars don't cause deaths each time one gets near one, yet Covid19 infects almost everyone it comes near.
Your analogy fails.
That is a profoundly stupid argument.
By the same dumb logic, 7500 people die in America of all causes every single day. Death is a fact of life. Thus since only 5 people out of 100,000 are murdered in the United States every year, why do we waste resources investigating murder?
7500 people die in America of all causes every single day. Death is a fact of life. Thus why worry about air and water pollution, after all, something has to kill you. Death is a fact of life....
If Covid-19 kills 3 percent of the people that get it, then you could easily double the number of people that would die this year. State and local governments are not shutting down their economies because they want to exert some power over the citizens, they are doing it to avoid hundreds of thousands if not millions of deaths. It's not a conspiracy.
Life is a lot more pleasant of one tries to avoid lunatic beliefs.
No, what i want is for someone to explain how these radical powers that state officials are exerting will not be abused. And I frankly do not believe that local leaders don’t want to be little dictators. Just look at De Blasio yesterday saying if churches and synagogues (there’s a different kind of religious structure he didn’t mention) don’t stop services he’ll close them forever. He looks giddy announcing this.
And murder is different. Murder is an affirmative act by a person. Deaths from a disease are not.
Plus he doesn't seem to understand that a dangerous pandemic doesn't replace death from other causes, it's in addition to them. Moreover, there are all sorts of restriction in liberty in terms of the design and operation of motor vehicles in the name of public safety.
Life must be miserable when you see a lunatic conspiracy in everything.
It’s not a lunatic conspiracy, it’s happening right before our eyes.
It’s just like 9/11 and you were with the terrorists if you didn’t agree to be sexually assaulted by airport security and now it’s just accepted you will be.
God the irony that would your response.
We're not under a dictatorship, at least for now. Trump's a big fan of Orban - I bet you he wishes he could do what Orban has.
This sentence is incomprehensible.
More irony...
Sure dude, you are right. It's obviously all a tyrannical power grab, we will be forced to stay 6 feet apart from everyone, restaurants and bars will be closed, and white collar workers will be working from home forever......
I don’t see how we can’t. After all no post 9/11 security theater has been rescinded even though its all a total sham.
Can you point to me which political leader has ventured an objective standard for reopening businesses?
When would you do it?
We're not under a dictatorship, at least for now. Trump's a big fan of Orban - I bet you he wishes he could do what Orban has.
Just like here in America, we fell into dictatorship in less then a month and the so called “democrats” are shaming anyone who questions it.
Virtually every civil right in USA got suspended And the Medical fascists can’t articulate a single logical reason for it
It's like arguing with someone in the nervous hospital. Sure dude, they will keep those businesses closed forever. Its all big conspiracy.... Jesus Christ, how do go through life like this?
Orban is bad, because he is a nationalist leader of a Christian European country. We hate those.
Netanyahu on the other hand.... yeah, smell your own hypocrisy for once people.
Umm, the president ordered a state of emergency, not the Democrats or 'medical fascists'.
It is no surprise that authoritarian regimes like Hungary will use a crisis to tighten their grip. China will no doubt reap some long-term benefit for the regime's intrusive surveillanvce pf its people; expect characters like Putin to use it to broaden their powers. It is an interesting question as to how far America will go.
See and this is what happens to people who want to know the political implications of this. You’re so devoid of any logical argument you keep personally attacking me instead of addressing the arguments I made. Because you have no response.
There is no reason they can’t keep businesses closed forever.
Your political party literally believes global warming is an existential crisis. What if democrats next time one gets to become president simply declared a climate emergency and bans all gasoline private vehicles, what will you say then?
I don’t know man, you were arguing just a week ago that paying a bag fee for your airline was akin to being sodomized against your will and now you’re sitting here saying “oh yeah closing everything down for reasons I haven’t even explored logically... no problem”
Everyone wants it to be over - the difference is, most people want to make sure the virus is under control first, before we start going back to the bar.The president wants it to be over. I see no such attitude from democrat governors
Covid 19 doesn’t cause death to everyone it is exposed to. Your argument fails

Tha Joooooooosz
Your obsession is rather laughable.
What about their obsession? They are the ones using their bully pulpit in the media to drum up hate against Orban.
