Fair, I will retract that statement. However, we all already know why people are acting this way. They don't like it, but it's still not an excuse.

Two things i do admit to though..the number of people at 10 at an outdoor rink. Seems ridiculous to me when they will be playing hockey games with far more than that on the ice at a time in less than a month,indoors at the dome.

It sounds like we won't see it at the Dome, but I get what you're saying. However, one is a bunch of randos meeting at a rink, and the other will be a strict bubble situation with mass daily testing and quarantine procedures undertaken at great expense.

Kids going back to school...though i understand the reasoning and even agree with it, it makes all the other sacrifices people have and are making somewhat pointless IMO.

The sacrifices are so that children are able to go to school and restricted segments of the economy can remain open and functioning.

Its an extremely complicated and fluid situation without question but it befuddles me how many see it as cut and dried and make massive judgments on others who dont see it the same way. Though that is clearly where we are at as a society now so i should not be surprised at all.

We've never had problems condemning people for breaking the law, especially when it needlessly puts others in danger. Nor have we issues condemning unlawful behaviour of law enforcement. Only one of those things happened here and the party is being rightfully judged.
There's nothing wrong with saying or feeling that laws are unfair, but a person still can't violate them without consequences just because they feel or think that way. And, like it or not, if you have an opinion on something people will judge your character on that opinion. I know some truly wonderful people that are anti-maskers, but I still judge them as selfish and ignorant for their opinions and actions on this topic. And no, I don't feel bad about that.
