Are you shitting me?!

Tried going to the craft sale at St. Urho day in Finland, MN this morning... cancelled.
Wanted to go out to Hibbing next week and have a look around... town's activities are cancelled until April 20th.
Sporting events cancelled.
Social gatherings cancelled.
Many other venues cancelled.
Towns closing their borders.
Countries closing their everything...

I'm sixty-years-old and I have never in my life seen events like this because the flu came to town... so why now? Who are all the paranoid that require this, Big Brother telling them what to do? When we had the flu -when I was young- we simply stayed at home in bed and got better, but now, apparently, we need the government to make us freakin' paranoid and want to barricade ourselves inside until we get the ALL CLEAR.

Wait... what? We're all going to cower inside our homes until the ... government ... says it's all hunky dorey to go out and live again?

Are you shitting me?!

All these paranoid people are going to depend on their governments to say, okay, go out and live, go out and have fun, go out and socialize... You're waiting on them to tell you to do something? Are you the same kind of idiot who bitches and complains when you think the government always controls too much, but now you're listening to them tell you you need to be paranoid?! You're really going to wait for your government to tell you when it's okay for you to do something?

Are you shitting me?!

Proof positive on how that plays out for a country,
Hermann Goering said it best and I quote, "...voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked..."

Understand the ramifications now? If not... are you shitting me?!
