How about an example. If we took a poll on TD right now, what percent would agree that the Chinese wet markets should be closed? Ok, now what about their liberties? See how that works?


Pffft...those are other people’s liberties.

I only care about my liberties.

Well I stay as far away as I can from people when I'm out. Which is hard cause I'm a people loving person that loves to talk with others . But I stay 6 feet away and anyone in line behind me does the same.

Do you not understand the simple concept that the current theory is that this virus which is affecting the entire world originated in those markets?





you missed my point, or my sarcasm wasnt detected.

of course I do, I was making the comparison that "chinese should shut down markets BUT I can do whatever I want" attitude

Nope, it’s about my liberties. What’s next, the govt will tell me what clothes to wear and what haircut to get? I’ll have to pick a haircut off the list like in China

I am not as willing to give up liberty for a little cough like most of you on this board are



Liberty? So tough, so manly. You tell'em baw. Enjoy your corona cough big bad e-tough guy. You ever been intubated? fricking liberty. Coronakiller says hold my beer.

It's fricks like you that will keep the curve on an upward trajectory. The longer you don't help, the longer everyone sits at home. But, frick it, you're too manly and tough to be a part of the solution. I assume your dumbass won't be needing a vaccine shot when available? Your pussy arse will be first in line. So tough...so cool...muh liberties.

CDC has been shockingly wishy-washy, if not intentionally disingenuous, from the very beginning of this.

The comedy of errors they had getting tests ready would hardly be believable in a movie plot.

Whether people want to wear a mask or not aside, the very idea that it's not going to help if someone coughs around you seems pretty basic.


Whatever stooge is running that agency will certainly have little accountability after this either, just move on to some cushy, corporate job set up by lobbyists.

However, this notion that this is only about “your body“ really needs to die.

So many of the people who parrot this line when it comes to Covid would freak out if you applied the same principle to abortion.

This China flu has turned seemingly "normal" people into the whiniest bunch of babies I've ever seen. On one hand you have the fearmongers who think the country should shut down for 3 months. On the other are people who are bitching because they're inconvenienced and talking about anarchy.

Man the frick up.


Then you have people like you, who whine about everyone else.

I bet when the Chinese are picking which haircut they want off the approved list, they believe it’s for the good of the country

So you are saying covering your mouth in public during a pandemic is not good for the country?

Well I think you are better than this. But hey do what you think you need to do. Just be careful I guess. This is a horrible time for everyone.

I guess it's what this board is for, but I don't understand why everyone needs to pick a fight over everything. This is literally like covering your mouth when you cough or sneeze...common courtesy if nothing else.

CDC has always said masks were ineffective at keeping the wearer from being directly infected. That hasnt changed. The mass use of masks is effective because it stops droplets from wearers from spreading to others. So any piece of cloth can accomplish that.


THANK YOU!

Get over yourself dude. This isn't a fricking haircut in China. No one is taking your liberties. Put down the musket. You can move on with living life if we can get this virus under control but, no, you have to be a prick. You're part of the problem not the solution. Change your attitude toward the issue at hand. Help...as hard as that may be, it's what is needed right now.

Doing everything I can to not infect my 89 and 84 year old parents. I have a few masks that I wear mowing. I'm wearing them now and plan on wearing bandanas in the future. Ordered this one, and some camo one's last night.
