Although the horrors of the circuit breaker are possibly drawing to a close in a couple of weeks, the pandemic is far from over.
We must all remain cautious and practice safety measures to prevent further clusters and surges in cases.
Only go out if you have to, and wear a mask if you do. It’s really that simple.

But as in all parts of life, there are always people who can’t seem to grasp the basic concept of rules. And hence, we have to unleash the police officers upon these degenerates.
After all, we can always trust police officers to keep to the rules.

Traffic Police Officer Seen With Mask Down On The Job
Due to the efforts of paotoh kias on Facebook, a Traffic Police Officer was seen with his mask down while operating his camera on an overhead bridge.
Posted on a page known as SG Dirty Fella, video footage showed him only with his mask half-on, below his mouth and nose.
What? A police officer? Not following the rules?
.. You were supposed to destroy the rule-breakers, not join them!
But with any case in the world, we have to delegate this to the wisest and fairest of all juries – the Netizens.

People also claimed that the video was completely unnecessary, as he/she could have just talked to the TP officer nicely.
That then also relates to the nasty habit that many have – their first instinct to any issue is to publicly shame the person on the Internet. Perhaps that is one problem we need to eradicate as well.
But this goes to show one thing: online shaming doesn’t always work because people are rational, like this example of how everyone’s defending the officer.
