Bad timing

I'm kind of thinking that the throng of college students who recently stormed the Florida beaches during a worldwide COVID-19 epidemic ought to be required to take and pass a semester course in "Social Awareness & Responsibility."

Their depicted flagrant disregard of crisis precautions quite likely resulted in some becoming virus carriers, thereby transporting it back home, or elsewhere throughout the country. That very untimely "fun" gig, may ultimately endanger the lives of people they or others very much love.

And, if I were a parent of one there, I think it would cause me to seriously question not having provided better guidance ... or just hard-core nonconsent. Circumstances being what they are, the TV images and "carefree" interviews from this year's spring break bash seem to necessitate consideration for the proposed requisite.

Like we are so frequently reminded these days, "We should all be in this together."
