Yes, you are free to disregard the social distancing recommendation, but the commercial business's are allowed to stay open, PROVIDED the social distancing is being adhered to. Just like some beaches, it only takes a few to ruin it for all.

Usually the adults are willing to follow recommendations when made by people smarter then they are. Kids on the other hand will do what they can to disregard what they are told and will make decisions about where they wanna be.....just visit Disney and watch the interplay between kids and parents. I think you are confused.

No, we are not! The great divide seems to get wider every day.

Ostriches hear little snippets of news broadcast by The Little Red Hen and are certain that the end is near!

Logical and thinking people can figure out that nothing that “they” have told us to date is reliable.

Do you really want to die in your house while this scamdemic seeks a cure?

I think the great divide is facilitated by the fact that the people who are making the rules have no skin in the game. They are receiving full pay and benefits, while those who have to follow the rules are out of business and facing financial ruin.

I'll be happy to die in my garage underneath my classic where the rest of the world isn't, "Together"

Many people have not been out to even SEE what is going on at the squares. I am sure they are not the ones complaining or reporting y'all.

Most polls show that almost 70% of all Americans are hesitant and reluctant to go out and be with other people because they do not feel safe.

I think people are realistically apprehensive. Most people here are in the highest risk age category. People can choose what they want to do. It worries me that there will be an escalation of the virus, and that my husband who is the one that goes out on errands and to buy groceries might somehow get exposed and get very sick or even die. The risk factor for an 80 year old if they catch Covid-19 is greater than one in ten of dying. I don't like those odds at all.

I have some little kids, old men and drunks who just love me. They would miss me if I died.

this will all work itself out over time...but it is going to take time

so for now be safe

how lucky were you that you had the opportunity to move your chairs closer one evening and listen to the music
....be happy...this will change

One cannot social distance by ones self. Consequently, one is not allowed to make a decision not to social distance based on their percieved "adulthood". You don't get the right to determine to not social distance from other people. This is not a situation of personal rights. It is all about Social Responsibility.

No. There is lots more to say. All rights have their limits.

You have obviously drank the Kool-Aid. It’s always about individual rights. Social responsibility it’s just another way of saying government control. Get a clue!

According to who, you? You don’t have a clue what you’re talking about. Constitution is not about limiting our rights, it’s about limiting what the government can do.

Ridiculous? Do you have the right to control what you do, not what other people do. That’s it!
