Who's "they"?

People. Did you think I was talking about frogs?
Must be Republicans.
Of people I know, they're the heavy substance abusers.
Democrats are just protecting rights on the other side of the aisle, eh.
Let me know how doing the same thing over and over will eventually magically get different results.

No **** people, but I wasn't sure if you were referring to a specific group of them.

Do only specific groups get high?
Rich, poor, young, old, religious, non-religious, dems, repubs, tall, short, skinny, fat, smart, challenged, etc etc they all have some that get high.

Thanks for the clarification.
Never said it would. Why the vagueness? You don't have political views? You don't have a party or ideology you prefer?
I already answered both questions

The key part of your statement above is "used to be".
When it gets to the point that stopping the hundreds, if not hundreds of thousands...
Where do YOU draw the line?

Why the vagueness?

Which two do you think are the same?

I am an independent who acts like an independent, but we certainly cannot say the same about you. However, in today's America, the Republican Party that I grew up in and supported years ago has gone totally bonkers as have so many who still defend that which should be indefensible. As Stephen Hawking said about Trump, he's "a demagogue who seems to appeal to the lowest common denominator."

Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
I still lean right but even I question on how the Republicans are behaving lately.
I regard both parties as despicable and wreaking havoc on the nation.

That's not what was going on though, was it.
We were in the midst of a pandemic (that ended up killing over 1 million Americans alone, and 7 million people worldwide), of a novel highly contagious virus that could be transmitted by people not even showing any symptoms at all, where we had to learn as we went along, where hospitals were completely overrun, and overwhelmed and people were dying because there weren't enough ventilators, masks and other necessary medical equipment available.
People seem to forget the reason we went into lockdown in the first place, was to alleviate the massive stress being placed on hospitals by the massive influx of ailing patients needing ventilators and immediate medical care, which meant that if anybody needed to go to the hospital for anything else not COVID-related, they'd be out of luck as well. Remember "flatten the curve?" That's what it was all about.
