Louisiana pastor defies coronavirus order, draws over 1,000 people to services

There is no right, even under the guise of practicing your religion, to subject others to communicable diseases...

Did they do that?
 
This pastor Tony Spell, is exactly the reason why we will never get over this virus as China has. We're stupid, they're smart. That's all there is to it. This man may as well have a gun in his hand and just go ahead and shoot a few dozen people, he's just as culpable as a murderer in my opinion.

Dan Fagan: Tony Spell is an attention-seeking fool. That's not what a pastor should be. | Coronavirus | theadvocate.comThe pastor of Life Tabernacle in Central continues to bus in hundreds from surrounding parishes. He’s been charged by prosecutors for doing so. And yet on Tuesday, after those charges were filed, Spell once again filled his church with people. On the very day Louisiana had its highest number of coronavirus deaths to date, Spell turned his sanctuary into a potential breeding ground for a virus he claims is a hoax.

But Spell ignores the wisdom of his peers and claims he’s now a victim of religious persecution.
 
They made their choice. It should be respected.

You make a choice that puts my family and loved ones at risk? No respect, dude, none whatsoever.

3leftsdoo: How DARE anyone place their personal and constitutional rights above the Democrat Flu Panic Agenda.

It's OUTRAGEOUS!!!!

3leftsdoo believes that Americans have a constitutional right to spread the virus anywhere they damn well please. He believes that Americans have the right to overwhelm the healthcare system to the detriment of all other Americans.
 
Who are they putting at risk? Everyone is getting this virus, its simply a matter of time, its contagious to truly stop, just like the cold virus.

Ah, another example of the right-wing misguided thought process that will get people killed. Please my friend, pay attention to what I write next:

The main objective of these stay at home orders is to slow the spread of the virus so that our healthcare facilities are not overwhelmed by the sick and dying all at once! The rapid spread is why we are or may run out of hospital beds, respirators, and PPE equipment while fighting this pandemic!
 
The Founding Fathers would be APPALLED.

:hm

You are correct, they wouldn't have put up with this kind of nonsense and the sent the good pastor and his flock to one of the many quarantine islands in the NE that they regularly used with communicable diseases...

Here is one example:

Lazaretto Quarantine Station
 
Corpus Christi - next thing these religious nuts will be doing is throwing tea in a harbor somewhere.

This MUST be quashed!

King George MUST be honored.

Thats not their or my problem. Thats YOUR problem.
 
In fairness, the LA gov did outlaw these gatherings, the pastor and his flock are defying the order.
Pastor Tony Spell claims he's being religiously persecuted. Dumb ****ers

“Yes, we’re going to have service and if I’m arrested the second man in charge will step in,” said Spell. “If he’s arrested, the third man in charge will step in. If he is arrested, the thousands of people who are members of this congregation are gonna step in, but you can’t take us all.”

Sir or ma'am, I'm very sorry, but if I haven't made myself clear to you in the past, let me be clear now:

I don't consider you to be an intellectually honest poster. You're obviously intelligent, but you use your intelligence to create anger and chaos, rather than to foment helpful discussion. Whatever your motivation to behave the way you do, I sincerely hope you're able to resolve those issues and join our community in both a thoughtful and helpful interchange.

Take care and be well!

I am fine taking the founding fathers approach... Round up the idiots and banish them to an island...

Amen, my friend.

The Democrat Flu Panic Agenda is the New Law of the Land.

It MUST be respected!

I doubt it. Those guys who did that were the 18th century ancestors of ANTIFA. No right whingers ever sucked up enough courage to take that kind of direct action.
 
Who are they putting at risk? Everyone is getting this virus, its simply a matter of time, its contagious to truly stop, just like the cold virus.

This is not true. Even the most highly contagious pathogen can be isolated to a portion of the population and will eventually die out even without a vaccine if the isolation is total. Social distancing also keeps the infections at a manageable rate in order to prevent healthcare services from becoming overwhelmed and increasing the number of deaths. That is the reason for the social distancing: To isolate the virus and reduce the infection rate until a vaccine is developed, or it eventually dies out. The more isolation we practice, the more time we buy for vaccine development.
 
And many other scary, idiotic, dangerous exceptions like recreational activities, like beach gatherings such as the typical large crowds at the spring break that undoubtedly increased the number of infected:

Florida stay-at-home order: What you can and cannot do now - Orlando Sentinel

This guy, and all the other govs, etc., that are leading their flock into infection and death, need to be kicked-out of office.

They need to be voted out, by they likely won't. Right wing ideologues tend to vote against their own interests.
