What happens if I go to New Zealand?
I am under house arrest for 2 weeks. That is locked down.

The residents and visitors (after 2 weeks quarantine) are not
in any way locked down. And the quarantine is _why_ they're not
locked down.

See we just need a wall ;-)
They have an ocean.
It is also a country smaller than most of our states.

So they did a better job with immigration and quarantine.
They also still have a pretty big part of the economy shut down.

This isn't EU either. The average American carries around a whole lot
of "**** You" and has a proud tradition of telling the government to
**** off. That is why we kicked out the king a couple hundred years
ago.
We will get over this, more like Sweden than Korea.
Hide in your safe place until it's over. You will be OK.

Is it any wonder that other countries get the impression that Americans
are loud and cocky when they hear folk like you belch out stuff like
that.
I'm sure that most Americans are not like that, at least the ones I've
met weren't, you do your country no favours at all.

What else could you call the 45 days of rioting in our cities that
Joyce and Bob are praising? They are destroying any vestige of
government authority that they can find.

I don't know, I'm totally flummoxed with what's all happening in the US.

I suppose I have to ask, what would Boris do.

We know that, he was mayor of London at the time
of the London riots, looting and burning that were
much worse than you lot have seen recently. The
courts ****ed them over very comprehensively
indeed and Boris ordered water cannon trucks that
ended up not being used because the rioting was
stamped out much more quickly than you lot are doing.

I saw how you folks dealt with the Irish "problem".
It was anything but peaceful

Not surprising given they quite literally blow up
and killed so many people, including the govt party
annual meeting and damned near killed Thatcher.

in a country that likes to brag about your non-violence

That's bull****.

and how your cops don't need guns.

They have armed response units now.
