Another Social Dilemma

Even President Trump suggests
we all should wear a protective mask;
breathing is hard, but it saves lives,
if we don't wear it one time we'll get sick.

The advice of doctor Fauci is smart;
avoid arrogant and silly remarks
of people that say, " They're taking away  
our freedom, we are feeling the impact! " 
Aren't protests and clenched fists seen daily 
to encourage the words that the crowd shouts?

The mask dilemma has raised questions marks,
some rather suffer the dire cosequences; 
has democracy become another nullified word?
Who believes that resrictions are wrong?
Why fight the police and get hand-cuffed
for an agenda that turns many into a dumb frog?
