(36,033 posts)Not because they have one bad bone in their bodies, but because the public must see them as humans, too, who deserve every public effort they ask for.
And because they can't take this much longer.

(170 posts)why is not wearing pants a crime? why can't I speed by your house at 90 MPH?
I don't get these people. As the spouse of a critical care nurse, these folks are trying to kill my wife.

(6,514 posts)I needed a new battery for my car. I called AAA, and a really nice guy came out to help me. He was maskless. I remembered to practice social distancing.
He eventually told me that he wasn't going to get sick. I just couldn't argue the point with him. His believe in the strength of his body was full of faith. I just couldn't bring up that a little bit of prudence might be warranted.
I feel like I let him down, and now I worry for him! For me he was a first responder, someone who came out to rescue me from being trapped. But, what could I have said that he hasn't heard?
