Ok, I think I have the right not to do so. The right to peaceful assembly is guaranteed under the first and fourteenth amendments, and I do not believe a group of less than 10 people staying 6 feet apart presents a clear and present danger to public safety.
What is truly scary about this mania is how quickly normal citizens not only allow their rights to be trampled, but the are willing to become nanny state enforcers, reporting on their neighbors, etc.
27 people died in Sumter county in 2017 of the seasonal flu, and I don't recall being put under martial law then.
