[QUOTE="Volatility_rivals135605, post: 131808556, member: 1476288"] Thinking someone has the "right" to intentionally spread a virus, because they have the "right" to do what they want when they want, no matter how it may effect other people, certainly qualifies for being insensitive. There is no defense for what that kid did. If we didnt have laws to place limitations of free will & individual liberties it would be chaos. IM all for small govnt, low taxes, low regulations, etc..... but every civil society places certain laws to maintain safety, security, and a foundation that nurtures a prosperous future. A simple example: Liberal cities reduce the penalty for shoplifting, now you see it happening in broad day-light without any concern of consequences. Being reasonable, respectful, & mindful of other people, is not being a ***** or living in fear. Its being a responsible member of your community. That doesnt mean you change your lifestyle, live in fear, or accept draconian policies, but it does certainly mean you dont go to a massive public & close proximity event knowing you are contagious with a potentially fatal virus, OR think that is ok because if you want to go to a game no one has the right to stop you, no matter how your decision may effect other people. If you are sick, stay home. If you are not, then live your life... Pretty basic fundamentals, that 99.99% of logical humans would not feel inhibit individual liberties. [/QUOTE]
