One thing I don’t understand about dementors shreiking about flouting lockdown rules, is that even after it’s been explained to them that a particular activity is not against the rules or that the risk is minimal, they continue with their ITS SO SELFISH, PEOPLE WILL DIE, THEY WILL HAVE BLOOD ON THEIR HANDS ranting
I’ve got a friend ranting on FB this morning about a lone bloke fishing late last night. They’ve posted a photo so you can see he’s on his own, no one else is around, he’s not touching any gates or railings, he’s way away from the pavement and road.
We’ve been told that fishing is fine, but the risk this bloke is posing is virtually nonexistent. Several people have politely pointed this out to her, explained the (non) risks very nicely, but she just continuing to rant, in capital letters that we’re all murderers, we obviously want elderly to DIE, we’re selfish, lives are more important than hobbies, etc, etc
She’s posting more and more outlandish and unlikely things that might happen - he might have a heart attack and need an ambulance. Might collapse, fall in the water and drown. If he catches a fish he will touch it and if someone else touches it he could pass on the virus. If someone was walking their dog off lead it might run up to him and if he touches it, he could pass on the virus.
She’s normally quite sane and sensible so I’m amazed she’s posting like this
