Each person needs to follow directives and "be around" as small a number of people as possible. The stuation in Florida is bad and getting worse because of the wishy-washy response from the governor. Self distance and stay home.

Governor DeSantis just ordered a cruise ship with dying and dead people not to dock in Florida.

Problem with your reasoning is you can also unknowingly cause other innocent people to die if you pass the virus on.

What is wrong with those people. Call security if you see other parties. I don't care if they get sick. I worry about the innocent bystanders who comes in contact with the virus they are carrying. How many innocent people are getting this because of selfish ignorant people?

Just as you could kill other innocent people if your accident causes your car to veer off onto the MMP?

Please give us your name, home address, and your cell phone coordinates so we can track you and ensure that none of us are within 6 feet of you, or touch any surface you have touched, during this period of "mah freedums."

Thanks.

I find it interesting that a lot of the posters here advocating "Stay Home", are spending a fair amount of time driving around, documenting other people's transgressions, including taking photos.

They're not advocating "stay home." They're advocating "stop grouping up" and "maintain a social distance with people who don't live with you."

Driving around is not grouping up, and it does maintain a social distance. Standing on the sidelines while observing people across a country club side-yard is not grouping up, and it does maintain a social distance.

Taking photos does not require grouping up, and cameras have zoom features so it's very easy to maintain a social distance while taking photographs.

Can you spell H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-S-Y ?????

It's sort of like Hollywood celebrities flying around the world in private jets to lecture others to reduce their carbon footprint.

On the other hand, they might just be driving around to find a store with TP so they can add to their supply of 500 rolls.

in the immortal words of Forest Gump "Stupid is what stupid does"....or in the cowboy vernacular "ya can lead a horse to water, but you can't make 'em drink"...

some folks like to push the envelope...not a big risk usually...but it is when it comes to covid-19...and selfish behavior is a risk to all of us

there seems to be this 'damn the torpedo's, full speed ahead' mentality for a lot of folks....I have my rights, you can't tell me what to do....yup, ya do have your rights, and while you're at it chose the funeral home ya wanna use too...



your "oops, sorry" is worthless if you are part of the problems spreading this virus

Barborv 03-30-2020 02:47 PM

The same reason you can't allow people to drink and drive, or a building having a maximum capacity due to fire codes. BECAUSE YOU ARE PUTTING PEOPLE AT RISK!!! All it takes is just one person at that party to spread it to one or more persons from that party, who then the next day goes to the supermarket, etc. and gives it to 10 more people and so on.....

And share your virus with the first responders and hospital staff that have to take care of your dead body. This isnt about you. Its about everyone

If you are in your car glancing at stupidity, you are social distancing, by @ least 30'--when it hits the fan in The Villages in the next two weeks--you were warned
