That would require violence, without their consent.

Do you think Typhoid Mary should have just been left alone to continue spreading disease at will? She was forced to stop cooking for people precisely because she completely disregarded the health of countless others and refused to stop on her own. Same thing here.

I am making too much sense for you. But it doesn't matter. I write for the people on the fence and also for those who might be too busy to look at the numbers the way I'm doing it. So, feel free to continue throwing sentences from the 18 century document describing general terms in a general way with a convoluted syntax. Subject to various interpretations as the times change. That makes you look smart. Yeah.

If there was common sense they could come up with better candidates on the democrat side than a socialist, Hillary Clinton, or a guy who's known to grope young women far and wide and is going senile. You want to beat Trump? Get some better candidates. But I agree... there's no accounting for intelligence amount some people. I don't want to pick on specifically on religious people though... but really what are they thinking?

I'm sorry but the democrats are just as much to blame when they keep running fossils for office. Obama was a great president in my opinion. Then they trot out the fossils... they were overconfident and thought Hillary was more popular than she was....
What does this have to do with a bunch of ignorant fundamentalists who refuse to stop spreading the virus?

The actions of these wandering disease vectors will most likely be killing off elderly who didn't even have a chance to make an informed choice whether to interact with Typhoid Mary or not. Where's their consent?

When your actions endanger others, you're the violent one.

I don't care if you're the world's greatest grenade juggler, BentBow. If you decide to juggle grenades around my loved ones, I will stop you, with as much violence as needed, and I will not give a second thought to your consent.

And Lousiana, where another pastor genius had this same urge to assemble his congregation. 4.7 million population

look at these numbers

Stay at home and don't half-ass it. The better you do it, the sooner you'll get out of it
