Will there be a time when we are forced into lockdown by lethal force ?

Very unlikely.. it would be self-defeating. Stay in lockdown to stay safe - if you don't I will shoot you!

I hope so. Bunch of dumbasses running around where I live.

Not without a fight

I hope so. People are idiots, and need moments of being held at gun point, for their own good.

That would start a second civil war. We have a constitution that protects our rights and while many have been quiet they wont remain that way if draconian measures go too far.

Most likely

Only if there are enough scumbags in law enforcement to do it.

Marshall Law. Not sure. Depends on fear of the offices and anger of the civilians. I have no problem with the lockdown myself, and I enjoy the time off. But the fate of the world does not depend on me. I am but a very small part of an large whole. I just want to stay healthy.

Most likely, yes. Our rights have already been violated during this whole thing.

Hopefully things dont get to that point

If things get super bad, yeah

They were in Italy.

Better not be here.

Only if people become particularly reckless and stupid about spreading the disease. Unlikely in the West, but reportedly what’s happening in a few countries is that people violating the lockdown are being shot by police. I guess the leaders feel that if someone cares so little about infecting their countrymen, best to remove the danger.
Here there might be incarcerations, but [b]that’s[/b] problematic because of the need for distance. 🤔

I don't see that happening here. But you never know.
