I have often wondered the same thing. If I exercise my RIGHT to assembly and be out and about with others who are doing the same, how am I a threat to your health?
Going by this same logic...
- Am I also a threat to your health if I drive on the road? After all, I might make a drastic mistake while driving and cause an accident.
- Am I also a threat to your health if I let my kid play football and potentially injure another kid? Cause a concussion?
- Am I a threat to your safety by exercising my right to free speech and saying something offensive? Something politically incorrect?
- Am I a threat to your health by driving a gas-guzzling SUV that you believe is causing global warming?
See this for what it is, folks. Many of the pro-lockdown folks are die-hard leftists, authoritarian to the core. It's becoming quite scary how their solution is to censor, lock down, and ban anything that they don't agree with. If any person exercising their RIGHT and LIBERTY conflicts with the "common good," well too bad according to them. That's anti-American and has no place in this country. People give the government power, not the other way around.
Listen to this wonderful explanation of how Gov. Noem (South Dakota) explained that she would NOT be enacting any more authoritarian (and unconstitutional, I might add) protocols:
“Our state motto is – ‘Under God, the people rule.’ That is what our system of government is all about. The people of South Dakota are the source of the power and the legitimacy of our government, not the media, not the politicians, not political parties. That's a healthy perspective for an elected official to keep in mind,” Noem said on Tuesday.
“So in today's plan, I am not announcing any new government programs, more red tape, more prescriptive phases or tight controls or anything like that. That is not South Dakota. Rather, the plan I'm unveiling today puts the power of the decision making into the hands of the people where it belongs. Today's plan relies on South Dakotans to continue to exercise common sense, reasonableness, innovation and a commitment to themselves, their families and in turn, their communities.”

How refreshing is that? A politician that truly gets it- power to the people to make their own choices. Where they can weigh the risks and act accordingly and don't require a nanny government to tell them what to do. Makes me want to pack up and move there immediately!
