Be nice
Everyone is welcome to their own opinions, on their own posts. Please don’t use other peoples posts to vent your frustrations and personal antipathetic (bad) opinions. Especially if the post is simply informing of an event.
The poster is not responsible for the government mandates, and wherever you like them or not, the mandates are there for a reason. Accept them or not, that is your choice, and no one is saying you don’t have a choice.
But as adults we all should know, by now, that choices have consequences. And consequences are not always what we like.
If you don’t like the system, try coming up with a better one. I dare you. But don’t take it out on innocent people, please. THAT creates division more than anything else.
Be nice! Or face the consequences. ☝️♥️
