Hey OP. How much is Winnie the Pooh paying you?

Coronavirus is a new form of SARS, which was big news from Asia 20 years ago. Wuhan lab of virology is near what was determined to be ground zero for the virus. There was news about the virus starting to spread in China back in 2019.

Conclusive? Perhaps not. Highly suspicious even to the layman? Absolutely.

There was a story in the US a while back about someone who bought a historic house. The house was infested with termites and rot. They calculated the costs and found that it would be considerably more expensive to restore it, than to demolish it and build an identical house. The city council wouldn't have it so they're stuck with it unless a mysterious fire happens.

It's the immigrant's/tourist's/expat's/visitor's responsibility to observe their surroundings and learn the culture, so that they can avoid egregious mistakes. Locals tend to be understanding of small slip-ups, but they won't be so accepting if someone pisses in the plaza fountain as people tend to do in that person's home country.

I understand the part about wanting to ban kids from carrying guns while unsupervised. A kid carrying a gun? questionable. A kid carrying a gun and his or her parents are not around? reckless and potentially dangerous.

My guess is that local governments will pass their own alternatives to this law. Cities and suburban areas, most likely.

I imagine that the article, being from The Guardian, is editorialized with a left-leaning spin on it to make the situation sound a certain way.
