There is a regional hospital in my city. Several hotels here are part of a system that houses patients from outlying counties who come to the hospital for daily outpatient treatments, like cancer treatments or dialysis. It’s a very nice thing. They voluntarily stay at these hotels. Partially funded by various charities, donations to the hospital for that purpose and by the hotels themselves.

The people staying at the Lakeside Inn go there voluntarily. It is a HUGE step from offering a place to sick people with nowhere else to go and arresting people and forcing them to go there.

No one’s freedom is being constrained. No one has been seized by the Gestapo and forcibly locked up. The people there are free to leave anytime they wish. Hardly Auschwitz. Nothing to hyperventilate about.

If they start arresting people and forcing them, then we can all get out our pitchforks and torches, and I will enthusiastically show up with mine. Right now, it’s much ado over nothing.
