@mghrn55 saidlike the democrats are doing to you liberals? far more destruction and killings have happened at riots where harris paid the fines of the rioters
How about applying this question to someone in a position of great power saying things that can influence the behavior of thousands or millions of people who hang on this person's every word.
And something that this person said, perhaps at large rallies attended by people who didn't wear masks, has possibly contributed to thousands or hundreds of thousands of deaths.
Would your question apply here ? 🤔
@mott-the-hoople saidEven Trump admitted in a recording that COVID is 5 times deadlier than the flu.
should going out in public with the flu be made a felony?
But I never said it should be a "felony" to not get vaccinated.

@eladar saidI'm all for the freedom of speech.
So you are saying you do not like freedom of speech.
It is what countries have fought for and many have died for.
At the very least, that freedom should be exercised responsibility.
I think the notion that freedom is absolute often leads to that freedom being exercised irresponsibility by many.
Freedom is relative.
Try robbing a bank otherwise.

Btw, I think everyone knows freedom of speech has limits. You cannot yell fire in a crowded building. You cannot incite murder.
I guess you believe you should not be allowed to question election fraud. Yours is a pretty extreme position.

I never said you did...please be truthful.
Should going out in public with the flu be a crime? In rephrased since you didnt answer the first time.

@eladar saidWell you can only pass laws you can only punish people for not abiding by them. That’s true of public health vaccinations and mask wearing to murder.
When do you think we can start seeing laws preventing smokers from smoking in their own homes if others who do not smoke are also in the home?
Banning drunk driving has not stopped people from being killed by a drunk driver.

In no way is covid a medical emergency that threatens the nation.
@eladar saidShould we make laws prohibiting behavior that could lead to another person being killed?

2nd hand smoke kills innocent people who happen to be around the smaller. Should smoking anything be made illegal?
Drunk drivers kill innocent people. Should we make it illegal for a person who drinks to be able to have a driver's license? After all if they drink, some will drive. Or should we just outlaw alcohol altogether?
Should we make laws against reckless driving?
Should we make laws prohibiting the construction of unsafe buildings?
Should we make laws prohibiting the sale of contaminated foods?
Should we outlaw drunk driving?

First Trump, now Mercola. You guys will literally believe anything.

@wildgrass saidReckless driving laws do not stop reckless driving. If we want to stop deaths by cars we need to make cars illegal. It is the cars that might kill people.

@suzianne saidFreedom is criminal.
I see that Biden may release a statement requiring that all Federal workers show proof of vaccination or submit to regular testing.
It's about damned time. I'm tired of people where I work not being vaccinated and still not wearing masks. It's criminal behavior.
Nice to see where you stand.
Who is preventing you from wearing personal protective equipment if you are so afraid?
