Abuse Is Abuse

Abuse Is Abuse - It Doesn't Stop Being Abuse Just Because The Government Does It
Abuse Is Abuse

There’s the thing; we’ve too many people who don’t understand that abuse is abuse, irrespective of where or who it’s coming from. Indeed, what is acceptable for the People to do to each other is often not acceptable for the government to do the People.

Currently, in the context of the various government responses to COVID-19, this easily steps over the line into abuse due to there not being equal protection under the law. Instead, many people are told to stay in Lock-Down while groups and activities favored by certain politicians are exempt from this.

Sadly for the nation, too many people either don’t understand this or don’t care. That makes it hard to enact a solution to the problem.

While I’m not against all, or even most, of the initial responses to COVID-19, the blind, slavish, eagerness that a lot people showed towards following what were quite destructive and draconian quarantine measures is quite disturbing. Not surprising, but quite disturbing.

And the way you jumped on the social engineering point of this all being to protect others instead of ourselves and branded any dissenters as public enemies, was and is even more disturbing.

And Hellfire! Forget the agriculture. Think of the honey and all the wonderful things it can be drizzled upon. I mean Karo and/or Golden syrup are all well and good, but honey is better.

For The Longest Time

We’ve Been Hear In Lock-Down For The Longest Time

Honestly, it’s good and heartening to see that some people are showing and sharing a certain level of resilience to the pestilence that is the enforced quarantine and shut-down of society in the wake of COVID-19.

But hey! They’re Canadians and Canadians seems to be possessed of a certain aplomb and fortitude in the face of this sort of adversity.
