Lockdowns work.

This is a very good point.

The cost is not limited to money, normalizing suspension of rights is an unacceptable cost and precedent.

Furthermore, those who wish to continue to self isolate are not kept from doing so. Allowing people who wish to go back to work and those who wish to patronize businesses to do so, even if somewhat fettered by social distancing guidelines, is absolutely necessary.

Those who wish to patronize businesses in the US will have to wait a while longer.

Not really. They were going to keep the population on house arrest until the vaccine is realeased but then realized that they just can't do that. They're already trying to reopen the economy even though new cases are still trending up. Same in Germany and France. You can stay inside though, I don't mind. Just be advised that might not even keep you from getting sick.

Abandon is in such a bad state right now that he is joining hands with the neo nazi pedophile

UncleBuck is in such a good state during the worst crisis in generations that he thinks it will hurt him if someone else has the right to be outside.

Must be nice being a casual observer during a time of crisis.

While this is true, nobody who actually tries to touch my arguments is walking away happy. It's mostly just dismissals, insults, and mockery like your retarded ass thread and your retarded ass comments when I was the first one three months ago to take this seriously here.

So thanks but no thanks, you're just as big of a dickhead as everyone else here, including me.

Lockdown is working well in London, the numbers have skyrocketed since we did it, We are now at over 800 deaths per day. In London the population density is extreme with ordinary people living in very close proximity, many breathing the same air. Thank god the exponential graph is now flattening at just over 800 deaths per day, damn that irritating linear graph showing a peak.
In all seriousness there is no binary position regarding whether lockdowns work or not, in low density populations if they are implemented early enough ( didn’t happen), in high density populations they have little effect. The gold standard imo is track and trace, antibody tests with people observing social distancing and hygiene diligence.
Economic collapse will bring more death and misery, we need to use science to guide us back to work not some medieval no exit strategy mass quarantine.

Stay Home, Be Safe. Those 800 per day shoulda stayed home and been safe.

Yeah over here in my area, southwest Michigan, it's like no one gives a rats ass about lockdown. Go to any grocery store and it's packed, go past any drive thru fast food and there's a line of 5-6 cars, every gas station is always busy. Drive past any Menards, Home Depot or Lowe's and the parking lot is packed. Banks are busy. It's almost like there's no lockdown in my area, parks are filled with people and kids playing.

But I can say for sure that I was on lockdown at work the other day and it worked lol. I delivered a truckload of commissary (toothbrushes, shampoo, soap, snacks and other random stuff) to a prison in Carson City, MI. I could not exit the cab of my truck and an armed guard stood in front of my truck watching me like a hawk. I stayed in my cab no problem lol.


I have to go to another prison in Coldwater, MI on Monday morning, same thing commissary delivery, I think this one is a higher level security prison, I imagine I'll be on another lockdown again.

No, I'm the liberal equivalent of an NRA funded politician. I just go around telling people to "Stay Home, Be Safe".

Shouldn’t you be out trying to feed your family by finding a car to fix or something instead of spending hours (you did say hours right?) trying to prove an unprovable point by posting well put together “hypothesis”. I’m concerned your family is suffering now that you’ve become so obsessed and obviously very angry. Their probably concerned as well. Priorities man priorities.

“lockdown, stay home, stay safe. Flatten the curve. Try to stay mentally strong, people are counting on you”

I think you're jealous that people don't make threads just for you and that you don't have dozens of people dedicating hours to debating with you.

Not sure why else you would try so hard to make these attempts to get under my skin in such a personal way. Maybe you're just not that interesting.

I’m not that interesting. Is that some kind of a validation for you? I guess your quest for work to feed the family has taken on less of a priority allowing you to be here for hours defending an unprovable hypothesis, glad things are looking up.

No, just confirmation, seems being interesting to others is a concern for you. So all is good with the family then? Finding work is not a priority leaving you more time to find validation, going from thread to thread, of your unprovable theories ..... good!
