Are you in favor or against letting in people sick with Covid 19?

You already restrict sick immigrants (either by quarantine or outright rejection) for a raft of diseases and medical conditions, so I don’t imagine adding COVID-19 to the list will change the picture all that much. It’s probably a wise move.

So it's OK to discriminate against the ill.... How about the stupid? Or the ugly?
Think about that... The sick can get better - but stupid and ugly is forever....

Yeah, but letting in those sick with contagious afflictions without quarantine can kill lots of people.
You need stupid and ugly to join and support the GOP.

You should be in favour of allowing in the stupid and the ugly - you’ll look better by comparison.

I think you two are missing the point......
Viruses don't respect international boundaries any more than sick desperate people...
Don't let them in - and they will make any insane attempt to sneak in.

Who said don’t let them in? If someone with any other communicable disease tries to immigrate, you simply quarantine them until they’re no longer a health risk. There’s no reason you couldn’t do that with people who test positive for this particular virus.

Would he? Why would you assume the stupid and the ugly from “shit holes” could possible be more stupid and ugly than the natives?

I assumed no such thing. It was OLB’s standard, not mine.

Shit like this, I really start to question whether you even believe the shit you spew across the forums.
A mandatory 14-day quarantine for anyone entering the country is actually a reasonable plan. Chicago has an emergency travel order and if you're coming in from 23 states ( list with methodology heah), you have to stay in quarantine for a fortnight. I also have a job as a columnist with Anglotopia and I can't even get on the site without getting a reminder that Britain is still under an even more restrictive quarantine. I'm sure there's other jurisdictions under similar rules. There's no real reason this needs to lead to a slippery slope.
