    Fucking prove that I've killed someone because I haven't worn a mask or gotten vaxxed.

    That could be done in some cases.

    Should killing someone only be illegal if there's proof? What if you were behaving recklessly, and infected 300 people directly or indirectly and 17 of them died. Maybe a few of them might have died anyway. And you can't tell which 12 or so you killed.

    Should that be legal?

    No, you dipshit, fucking prove that I have killed someone. Do that, then you can try and have this discussion with me.

    Until you do that, you have nothing but theoretical questions and scenarios. Innocent until proven guilty. THAT is what is RIGHT.

    That’s a good point. If someone believes we are innocent until proven guilty, then the “sick until proven healthy” approach (which requiring masks implies) would seem to contradict that.

    It's the truth, man. I don't understand how people can just assume that I'm sick, or that I'm a danger, when they have no proof at all that I'm sick or a danger.

    Innocent until proven guilty doesn't mean shit in the Empire, doesn't mean shit to the GovCorp. However, the GovCorp doesn't decide what is right. innocent until proven guilty is what is right.
