So there should be no drunk driving laws "because choice"?
Your argument really does seem to be, "Laws are worthless, because people break them", because you repeat it several times.
> This isn't a pandemic. It's a panicdemic.
I would be ashamed if I had written what you had written.
Where are your rational arguments? Where are your links to peer reviewed papers? Where is the moral, rational or intellectual integrity here?
Yet it still happens and claims innocent victims.
> smoking is banned in many situations
Yet it still happens and claims innocent victims.
> Having sex doesn't affect passers by, just the active participants
By making protection mandatory we keep people safe and healthy.
> Junk food you choose to eat yourself
As stated earlier it has been repeatedly shown that obesity is a social disease.
I haven't even brought up second order effects.
How much police and health care costs would we need by banning alcohol? Can you think of other second order effects?
> This is a once in a lifetime pandemic
This is a once in a lifetime panicdemic.
Is it a pandemic if governments and organizations are begging people to get tested?
Is it a pandemic when less than 1% of populations are positive let alone in a hospital or morgue?
This isn't a pandemic. It's a panicdemic.
Please stop keeping us safe. I appreciate your effort but let me choose.
This is about choice.
