Constitutional Right To Peacefully Assemble Latest 'Victim' of Govt COVID-19 Crackdown

[MisterBeale]

This is a perfect illustration of why all commies must fucking hang.

.

Rationed Liberty

That sure looks like a lot less people than ever died in any war defending our civil rights and civil liberties.

It's "FEWER" actually, not "less". Less of much, fewer of many. Less rain, fewer raindrops.

Fun fact though: the so-called "Spanish" Flu of a century ago killed more Americans than all of the wars of the Twentieth Century --- the one where we became imperialists --- COMBINED. Philippine War, World Wars I and II, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Panama, Libya, Grenada, fill in brown-people country here, add 'em all up and you still don't equal the death toll of that pandemic all by itself. More US soldiers died of that disease in WWI in Europe -- after transporting the disease there --- than were killed there in combat.

This perspective brought to you by the word fewer. bane of Miller Beer commercials.

oh? . . . . perspective is what we are talking about now is it?

Govt flexes muscle to show citizens / Constitution / Founding Fathers who's 'Boss'....



One Arrested as Raleigh, NC Police Suspend First Amendment; Declare Coronavirus Lockdown Protest “Non-Essential Activity”

'Raleigh, North Carolina police suspended the First Amendment Tuesday, dispersing a protest against the COVID-19 Chinese coronavirus lockdown and arresting one protester for failing to disperse. The police issued a statement declaring “Protesting is a non-essential activity” that was in violation of an executive order by Governor Roy Cooper (D) prohibiting mass gatherings.'

What is considered 'non-essential activity' by the government is a right protected by the Constitution from a government who seeks to quell all peaceful assemblies...

Add this one to the list of Constitutional Rights - like exercise of religious freedom - being trampled in the name of 'preventing the spread of CPVID-19'.

Here's what y'all infectophiles keep missing.

-- What's the adverb before the word "assemble"? "Peaceably".

Therefore an assembly of, say, a lynch mob would be an assembly but not a "peaceable" one, agreed?

Whelp, same for a congregation that huddles together despite a known contagious infection going around. One uses a rope, the other uses a virus.

Think about it.

So we lose the right to freely assemble every flu season?

I am thinking about it, you're not

This isn't a plague or small pox

It's a coronavirus, IDK where the line is when it's an actual health emergency. But if you think this is it, kiss your right to assemble* goodbye. Because things like colds and the flu aren't going anywhere.

This is a plague. There is no real cure for the serious cases. Medical practicioners are basically throwing everything they have at this thing and seeing what sticks. .

Every day we're learning more about how the virus attacks the body. This is some nasty shit. It attacks the heart, kidneys and lungs. Patients may have long term problems even after the virus is gone.

The current death rate in the USA is 34%. 66% percent have recovered and gone home, but 34% have died. There are now 578,000 active cases. While the lack of testing meant that only the sickest were tested at first, it's likely that this rate will come down. if the death rate continues at 34% of active cases, another 200,000 people will die. Even if the death rate comes down to the current world death rate of 21% of cases where the outcome is known, more than 120,000 more Americans will die - even if no further infections happen after today.

Wow. I DO NOT know where you get a lethality of 34%, but that is WAY off.

The NHS in Britain puts it between .5 and 1%

More critical studies that factor in folks that don't get tested put it as .37%

It boggles the mind that you can either be so wrong, or put out such misleading propaganda.

No wonder you take such authoritarian scare tactics.

Hell I can tell you that. It's right there in the numbers, a simple calculation. Watch.

(using up-to-the-minute current numbers):

34,522 perished plus 57,271 Recovered equals 91,793 cases which had an outcome.

Out of that body, in 38% (37.6) of those outcomes, the outcome was death.

The UK by the way has not reported reliable figures. I told you that before and now I'll tell you why. See that column under "Recovered" that says "N/A"? Until a few days ago, it said "135". Every day. For literally weeks. Now they've given up reporting anything.

You axed the question --- you got the answer. That'll be $135.72.

Sorry, in the absence of figures and testing, you don't get to use what figure you have, and make up number and call that good.

You are as dumb as Dragon Lady. As if you are an epidemiologist now. What a joke.

I give you a study, you give me your own made up logic. . . who is that conspiracy theorist now boyo?

 

[lantern2814]

YOU lost as usual you retarded monkey.

Shut the fuck up you stinking drama queen.

Poor illiterate.

A pattern I see.

Yes. Calling stupid retarded monkeys like you stupid retarded monkeys. Note this asshole couldn’t refute anything. As usual. By the way Slogo is still violating the rules with his constant funnies to mock posters. Another loss for Slogo.

Sweden still open

Still the flu

Because this rationale completely ignores the fact that attendees who acquire it at the gathering will spread it to others who did not attend this gathering.

How will that happen if everyone else is social distancing and taking other precautions?

You are responsible for your own safety ONLY.

.

That's ridiculous. The morons who are insisting on their "freedom" are doing so out of hatred for their neighbors. They need to start showing some patriotism and respect for others. There is no such thing as being responsible only for your own safety. The entire field of tort law is based on the concept that the risk posed to others was foreseeable.

BTW: the other day when I was shopping and picking up something in the refrigerated section (which has glass doors) a white male approximately 45-55 walked straight up to me and reached around me, forcing me to step aside six feet, and then proceeded to do a ten-minute inspection of every package; no mask, no gloves, handled many items before finally picking one, this me standing there all the while. He forced me back. There should be a way to punish this sort of scum.

Incidentally, I identified this perp by race, sex, and approximate age due to the current idiotic practice on this board of identifying wrongdoers according to these characteristics so that the misconduct can be properly "credited" to the correct demographic group(s).

You realize that this post makes you appear to be a frightened, whiny, racist, sexist little bitch who wants to get her daddy to go beat up the man who hurt her feelings, right?

Coming from the likes of you, this is a compliment. You can make up anything you want about me to satisfy your fantasy. Posters on USMB begin threads to blame all members of demographic groups for the conduct of one or a small group of individuals all the time, with the exception of white males, who you think should never have their royal conduct questioned. Normally I would not mention things like race or sex, but in this situation, I am just demonstrating that turnabout is fair play. We have no royalty here.

"Posters on USMB begin threads to blame all members of demographic groups for the conduct of one or a small group of individuals all the time,";
I'm new here, so I'll take your word for that for now........ but still and all, nobody likes a fucking whiner, okay?
Stop that shit already.

Sorry, kid. Why should I stop? Who are you to tell me to stop? There are fucking whiners all over USMB. They start threads about non-white or Hispanic individuals who are charged with a crime, but never mention the whites who have been charged the same crime. There is another thread here by a guy bawling about "homosexual hordes" and some "war on masculinity."

They don't understand that all people are judged as individuals based on their conduct and refuse to discuss, let alone condemn, bad behavior if it is the conduct of a white, straight guy. It's fun to mock them.

It was phrased as a directive but I meant it more as advice, so sorry if it came across poorly.
As to the rest, like I said, I'm new here so I'll take your word for it.
