I just don't get it, if your community leaders and government are telling you to severely limit social contact and you don't comply, then what do you expect to happen?
Agreed.
Everyone at my office thinks this is being overblown and I did too until last week.
At this point you can tell how many people are actually delusional.

as a whole but it wouldn't hurt people to stop "exercising" their right for just a few weeks as not to spread it further and delay recovery.
I absolutely agree with you. But it’s people’s rights to be fricking idiots. You don’t suspend the rights of the many because of some idiots.
If you’re terrified of this virus lock yourself in your house and wash your hands a lot and don’t touch your face.
No amount of people celebrating St Pddys day like idiots will give you the virus if you stay away from them.

don’t expect them to then suspend your rights and force compliance. That’s not how freedom works.

Brother,
As you well know, perhaps better than any of these immoral beings that populate this board I refer my dear brother in the words of Revelations 22:18-19.
The heathens on this site should be well warned of the dangers of adding to or taking away from the word. I pray that you and Mother are well and that soon this terrible judgment on making will pass until the next and that we may dwell in the House of the Lord when all is said and done.
Yours in his Holy name
Brother Owl

So you believe the government has the right to forceably quarantine the population and shut down the economy whenever they want as long as their reasoning is that it may endanger people to allow them outside?
with emergency powers? yes
we can debate the philosophical issues here, but those won't be resolved for a few years of court battles
i live in reality, and in reality, this behavior just increased the odds of men with guns affecting MY life, when i did nothing wrong. if you want to have a "government power" discussion, there we go. why do you think you have the right to behave in a way that increases government in my life, when i acted properly?

Misleading considering testing is just now ramping up. A ton of people have it and we don't know yet because they have mild to no symptoms. The numbers across the nation will skyrocket over the next 2 weeks just due to testing availability.

Baton Rouge had their own St Pats parade in Hundred Oaks as well. From what I can understand, a lot of people attended.

and the state is basically diverting ALL resources/testing solely to Orleans Parish

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

In this instance all normalcy is off the table to protect the general population. When you put others at risk you limit your own freedom.

Typically restaurant workers are who get super secret government tips first, so this may be legit
