I know I'm in the minority with this one-but this is a slippery slope in my opinion

However for some reason I find it dangerous when government forces mandatory respects for something no matter how tragic it was. Yes-I know I probably come off as a major asshole here. But this-this just isn't a good idea. It may seem innocent, but it isn't. It could bring about unwanted consequences. I know I'm probably just being a snowflake, but whatever you can think that.

EDIT: Ah shit I mean to post this in News!

I don't think you're being a snowflake.  We have a similar thing for remembrance day in England but there's no law enforcing the silence.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.
