Not to minimize the rest of your OP, but this...

The ONLY way to get through this is to go through it. We can't run. We can't hide. We can't depend on vaccines. And we sure as hell can't depend on government critters!!!

...is the best statement in it. I may have to borrow that, with due credit of course.

You are more than welcome to do so -- with or without credit!

Truths belong to everyone.

Did they have those health issues before Covid 19?

We're they in solitary confinement then?

This infection started with one case.
Do I need to remind people of this?

It's just starting in the rural areas.
Without adequate medical facilities available it's going to be even worse when this hits the heartland over the next few weeks. It may spread slower but spread it will.
Sorry to say but the worst is ahead of us if we don't stop this now.

Darling, I'm in the heartland.

Guess what?

It's here and it has been here. We're past our peak.

I'm not sure what rock you live under, but we ain't exactly isolated and reachable only by covered wagon these days.

How so? None of this is permanent.

Temporary or permanent, the denial and disparagement is the same. And there are no "temporary" exemptions or qualifications to our absolute and inalienable rights. Not even for pandemics, with which our founding fathers were well aware of, and suffered because of far more than us.

But at least you oh-so-reluctantly had to admit, by inference, that yes, in fact and in deed, our rights are being denied and disparaged.

It's temporary.
No one is taking away your religious rights.

See extreme thinking like this is contagious.
It's also not true so just stop.

It's been a few weeks.
A little cabin fever never killed anyone.
What happened to prepping for situations like this?

This is the place for that right?

I'm not even gonna attempt this one.

Lol but I can laugh.


Hey let's develope natural immunity to Ebola and hemorrhagic fever in general while we're at it.
Oh and hanta and HIV too.

a reply to: Sillyolme

Anything that gets between a person and their rights is taking them away, even if you view it as temporary.

If someone told you that you were losing your right to vote in November ... but just for this election ... how would you feel? I mean, what's the big deal right? It's just temporary. One election.

It may spread slower but spread it will.

Yup!

Sorry to say but the worst is ahead of us...

Yup!

...if we don't stop this now.

Which is exactly why the AG and DOJ have determined it necessary and proper to intervene NOW, not later.

Oh wait! You meant stopping the virus. THAT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN! The virus is here to stay. We will all catch it sooner or later, if we haven't already.

You cannot fool Mother Nature. And you can't cheat the Grim Reaper.

Let's compare apples and oranges.

None of the things you list are mild diseases with a mortality rate under 1%.

Where is that happening?
Where are preachers broadbranding service? And who has the equipment to listen?

They can turn on the tv and get service.
Does it have to be their church? Their preacher?
It's temporary.
This isn't going to be forever and I bet God will forgive those who don't go into a particular building to offer praise.
He knows they can do that in their kitchen.

I’m ready for businesses to reopen and then realize their real essential employees are now gone and working somewhere else.

It's not an excellent point. It's a recipe for disaster and a lot of death that is unnecessary.

Right. Legally speaking, that's what this OP is about: Prepping for necessary and proper lawsuits against those who would trample our rights and put us all in harm's way.

Looks like it needs to be said again.

From Ben Franklin, inventor of electricity and the $100 bill:

"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."

And there it is.

Greenville, Mississippi

“They park in their parking spaces. They keep their windows up, the doors closed. They never get out of the cars like the CDC recommends they do,” Dys said. “There's no exception to the United States Constitution for a pandemic. What Mayor Simmons has done is to apply an order without regard to equality, and he singled out churches in particular.”

King James Bible Baptist isn't the only Greenville church police visited.

“We have everybody stay in their cars, with their windows up and go to a certain radio station, a low frequency station,” Lee Gordon, with Temple Baptist Church, said.

Police went car to car issuing $500 fines. Parishoners stayed inside their vehicles. No one rolled down their windows, except when the cops ticketed them. The church used a special low-frequency radio station to broadcast service on. In this way, they satisfied their need for fellowship and kept service together while still following the law.

This was not the only church doing this, nor was it the only one cops went to, and they ticketed everyone in the car. So if you went with your wife, you both got a ticket making $1,000 for your household. Imagine going with your kids too.
