In Diane Child’s letter (“Let citizens decide the risks,” Our Readers’ Views, May 13) she wrote, “Delays mean more businesses and families will suffer. We have all sacrificed our freedoms to fight this virus. Now we want our normal lives back!”
I totally agree with her. This lockdown is hurting businesses and families because people aren’t able to work and that can result in bills and payments not being met. I believe we should be able to make the choice whether we stay in our homes or not. Some people feel safe going out in public so why should they be stopped?
Diane also states, “At this point, our basic constitutional rights are being denied by politicians who are inflicting their opinions and ideologies upon us. If we continue to allow them to control our lives, we will lose those precious rights.” She is talking complete sense and we need to go back to normal life as soon as possible. If people don’t feel safe they can stay inside, but for people that need to go out in order to work and support their families, let them.
