13. So for example if one county closes bars because of super-high infection rates

and another county, with much lower infection rates, lets their bars remain open, then the bars in the first county have had rights denied. Well, yes, that's a way to look at it.

Likewise, if Chicago regulates gun stores more strictly than some neighboring suburbs who preys off of Chicago's situation, yes, indeedy, rights are denied. Terrible, just terrible.
