Really? Then why can't we legally decide to use recreational drugs if we want? Why can't we legally go to a prostitute? Those are just two examples of activities that effect nobody but ourselves, but society has decided we could be arrested and even jailed if we engage in them. Burns my butt when people talk about individual rights, our "liberty" or our "freedom" when they really mean you have the right to do what you want as long as you follow the rules that "I agree with." The fact is, if you have the virus you can spread it. It's NOT about your individual rights, it's about how you may impact others. I want to get out, socialize and have fun just like you, but until there's a cure or vaccine we need to do it responsibly. Is that too much to ask?
