France is reporting some 52,000 new cases today.  They have a population of 65 million.

The numbers in Europe are scary, though the good news is that treatment is now better overall and the mortality rate has fallen.  But that is a truly bad figure.  Their peak back in March was under 8,000 per day when they were shutting down.

The first group refers to actions which are legal and illegal.  That is different from legal actions which may be desirable and undesirable.
Correct.
An he's facing a populace that largely ignores what they SHOULD do, he's amplifying it up a step in an attempt to get the desired behavior by using CAN'T.  

It's in vain, obviously.

humans can reason

animals don't
Correct.

And it's "human nature" to act irrationally.  Animals can't.  Their behavior makes sense - everything they do is to survive and propagate their genes.  

Humans can willfully act against their own self-interest, citing 'freedom.'  We can reason, but it doesn't make us all rational.

Depending on what one means by "reason", some animals display considerable aptitude at problem solving, especially the other great apes, and even crows.
And many humans don't.

Newsom sticking his foot in his mouth regarding Thanksgiving "regulations" that he can't enforce:

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8877273/Megyn-Kelly-joins-revolt-against-Newsons-Thanksgiving-insanity-requires-families-wear-masks.html

So he's going to piss everyone off and sound like a petty tyrant with regulations on minutiae of what you "can" and "can't" do instead of trying to actually influence and convince people how to be safer.

So instead of people actually thinking about how to be safe they're just going to dismiss his "regulations" as nanny state BS and we'll probably end up far worse off than if he treated people like thinking citizens.
I’d love to see if Newsom sticks to his own regulations on Thanksgiving.

It's always productive when someone strays from the content of the conversation to attack the poster. 

Once upon a time, it'd get you banned.  But not in the safety of the echo chamber.
