> You've sorted people who disagree with you into the category of "not adults". Should they be able to vote?

No, I'm the kind of person who is well aware that reaching adulthood is not a magic elixir that automatically grants everyone the ability to act responsibly or rationally, let alone a sense of common good.

Throwing adulthood around as if it implies everyone will do the right thing is blatantly unrealistic.

People disagree about things. It's not a good solution to put everyone who disagrees with you in the category of "child". It is, ironically, childish.

There was never any justification for banning people going for a walk. You've been seriously misled.
