Thank God we didn't have this attitude during WW2.  We'd be out the war after armed protesters demanded that their right to sugar was being infringed.

You think the US should have surrendered immediately to save lives?

I think they would have claimed Hitler was a Hoax and rationing would have been too much of a sacrifice.

What rights did we give up?

Assembly and religion.

So the US is the new Enver Hodxha Albania?

It really is amazing how against postal votes the far right are. Even before corona I noticed it was a real rising trend.
So transparent in why they're against it too.

They're definitely not hiding their motives.

Heh. If you can order from the Drug Store, Home Depot, Lowe's, Walmart, Target, etc etc online you can vote by mail. Please people do not fall for the voter suppressing nonsense Syt's family is trying to sell you.

Really? State and local officials who earn basically nothing and work very long hours in public service? And almost all of them have careers and businesses outside of public service are now being smeared as some kind of elitist clique?

Is there anybody in the United States your family has not smeared and attacked as evil at some point Syt? I guess the President.

I don't think Syt's family is writing these.

I do find it funny that people who can't even be bothered to vote are attempting to splinter society based on the actions of a bunch of very-part-time state legislators.  Virginia's legislature meets for an average of 45 days a year and legislators get less than $18k in salary.

This kind of bullshit goes way back.  I grew up among politicians, they are typically pretty ordinary and frequently quite dull.  Our current governor is just some farmer.  The Lieutenant Governor is a guy who owned a car dealership.  If these dipshits actually took the time to meet their representatives and talk to them they will find that yes, the coronavirus has hit them just as hard as it has everyone else.

Correct. They see some post on their timeline that's ARGHL-BARGHL-EVIL POLITICIANS and they will just share it without thinking about it too hard.

Though I'm not sure how much of that post also reflects our upbringing. From my parents' view, anyone owning a business or being self-employed (even if it's just the local shoe shop or the town's insurance guy) was on a notably higher societal tier than our family and therefore distant/separate. My father was in our town's small fishing club and considered it quite prestigious that there were two or three shop owners in in it.
