Have any other nation’s citizens pushed back at stay-at-home orders more than Americans?

Is their a country as great as America that has stood as long as we have? It’s not a coincidence, when you take away people’s freedoms or promote a socialist society your nation will fail.

As long as we have?? The United States of America is only going to be 244 years old this July 4th. The 50 states to make up the full United States of America has only been for 61 years this year. The unfragmented United States of America has only been alive for 155 years. We've not been a country that long when you take into account the histories of other nations. There's no ancient history of the United States of America. We still have a lot to learn. And we should look to the wisdom of the nations with truly long histories and customs of how to be better people. Covid-19 America is looking like crazy, unchained, radical pit bulls. No. It's not okay.

Americans are not 'compliant' - and never will be.

Well said.

The USA is a very young culture. But funny enough the constitution is the second oldest after Belgium, I believe. Other countries changed over time but the US is still hanging on to their outdated constitution.

People talk about "Freedom" a lot here but there are not having any. Everybody is strapped in to a capitalistic system where you need 3 jobs to just survive.

But it looks like this weekend a lot of them will get wiped out by Corona during there beach visits.

I’m proud of all the push back & out right defiance Americans have been giving our government on the issue of the lockdown. It’s good to give a government notice that their population simply won’t submit to their orders. It’ll make them think twice if they try to do something like this again.

Damn the Government for trying to mitigate illness and death.

What horrible people the governors must be.

Yeah back to reality. Do some of you undergo special training to be such rebellious jerks?

Nope. Do you undergo some kind of training to be such an effeminate bootlicking coward?

Yeah, look at all the brave people fighting for their freedom in Ozarks!

"I'm not afraid of spreading a potentially deadly disease to people who are more vulnerable than I am. I'm alpha as f*ck!"

what about the Netherlands, where kids are allowed to play with each, teens can play sports and "social distance" is 1.5 metres? maybe they don't need to protest because it's less inane there?

meanwhile in the idiot U.S. playgrounds have been closed for months, dopes mask shame runners & cyclists etc-- I agree with almost nothing about the present state govs of Georgia, Fla or SC but they're not wrong all the time

No, dude. I come by it honestly I suppose.

Infecting other people selfishly must be part of the Alpha Male code.

Oh wait. So is whining like a whipped puppy when you sneeze during a man cold.

Effeminate bootlickers don't do that.

We don't get sick as violently. We wear masks.

Lmao if you think America is a capitalist country you're retarded. We are corporatist, crony capitalism. And keep thinking the constitution is outdated, the intent was to limit reckless federal government to preserve freedom. Social and economic freedom is important to a prosperous society

Also a true capitalist society wouldn’t have just forced shutdown the majority of businesses in the majority of states for the last two+ months.

Dude, how often do you sneeze in people’s faces?

If these “vulnerable” people are truly following all these stay at home orders I should never even come in contact with them. It’s not like I’m breaking into people’s homes and just start breathing heavily directly into their face. Everyone I come in contact with has chosen to be out and about in society.

That's the same kind of argument that when Communists make is derided as delusional - it's never been tried properly, the Soviets were state-capitalist, we'll do it differently, etc.

There have been protests in Germany, France, and Spain.

Our lockdowns were much less strict than most of the world. Most western European countries were hit harder than us but eastern European, Latin American countries, and India locked down much harder than we did despite fewer cases.

But nobody can truly isolate. The people you come into contact with at the grocery store might be out shopping for a vulnerable relative. If you accidentally pass it to them, they could infect their relative.

That's why the guidelines are for everyone.
