Not actually common consensus. There are other means to do this.  Look at us here ......  A massive tight packed group can be very intimidating. A spaced group is easily taken down. However ... As the protests demonstrate, it does not negate the creativity of the people. With enough cars ..... You have both social distancing and a massive protests ... I do however, after reflecting on the language used in those constitutions, comparing it to what is being absolved from the UN in that regard and how thinking about it in public is being espoused, to be earily similar.  Every time I raise the issue of limiting the free exercise of rights of movement, travel, association, etc, so basically, 1st amendment rights, I hear this response: Social responsibility to do our part in keeping us all save. So what gives when we have to let go of a little bit in this regard? It all sounds to noble and dandy!
