Only good thing about the sex offendor is you can lock your doors.
If he sneezes near you as you are leaving you probably won’t die.
Both situations would suck.
Ebola is a whole nuther can of worms though. I would be very afraid if I were their neighbors. Hell, I live a couple thousand miles away and I’m afraid.
The thing is-they keep turnong all these people loose who were exposed. They were exposed to all manner of bodily fluid that is a certainty. In a very confined space. If that is true they are almost certain to be infected shortly.
Would you like to live next door to ebola victims? Don’t talk about property rights unless you’d be willing to live next door. Do the airline owners have a “right” to fly these people all over the world on their planes when doing so could spread the disease all over the earth?
This ebola thing is one area where we do have to act for the hated “common good”.
“Would you like to live next door to ebola victims?”
As of this moment, the people in question are not Ebola victims. But, to answer your question, if I lived in a village in Liberia with no running water, sanitation and in extremely close proximity to Ebola victims in a shanty, I would be concerned. In the developed world where there is plumbing, sanitation, and space between homes with walls, roofs and floors that were not dirt and not susceptible to encroachment of sewage, I would have no concern of being infected.
“Do the airline owners have a “right” to fly these people all over the world on their planes when doing so could spread the disease all over the earth?”
Disease spread from continent to continent long before the advent of aviation and while we could cease flights from W. Africa to the US for a short amount of time, we cannot cease flights from Europe, Asia, Australia and South America as that would devastate our economy.
Stopping flights from W. Africa would only be symbolic and not effective as people can transit from Liberia to Europe and then hop a flight to the US.
