CMV: I am proud of people that are quarantining themselves, not protesting, and obeying the government when it comes to COVID-19.

I am incredibly proud of people that are obeying the government and quarantining themselves instead of protesting these orders. Protesting doesn't do anything other than to put others at risk and make the situation worse. By quarantining yourself, you are saving countless lives by not being a possible threat. The news does not cover the countless people out there that are quarantining themselves. It's all media-hype to focus on people who protest and go against the government. This is not a political issue, this is a humanity issue, and I am so proud of people that are putting others before themselves. I don't have a view to change necessarily, but I want to hear why people are for or against quarantining themselves. I want to hear from both sides.<br><br>EDIT: Let me rephrase. I am not proud of people quarantining themselves because they *have* to, but I am proud of those who choose to quarantine themselves when they can just as easily go out and protest.<br><br>EDIT2: I understand some people need to go out to provide for their family, and I am not shaming them at all. I am talking about people who are protesting just for the sake of protesting.<br>EDIT3: I'm not saying people who are protesting are bad people, I am saying that protesting is not the right thing to do and you are putting others at risk.
