How about locking down beaches in 95-100F weather in socal where the virus can't last but a few seconds?

Asking citizens to call in and snitch on those not keeping social distancing?

Police telling people their rights are suspended.

It might be dumb, poorly thought policy, but if the beach is owned by the state/city/county, aren't they legally allowed to open/close it as they see the need? I saw photos of crowded SoCal beaches from this past weekend. Why were those open and others not? (Genuinely asking)

It might be dumb, poorly thought policy, but how does asking residents to call and report willful violations of (I presume)a legal executive or health order differ from people calling a dept of consumer affairs or health department , housing department etc to report stuff?

It might be poor policing, but police are allowed to lie to or deceive you. Just because a police officer says something general like your rights are suspended, doesn't mean that's absolute truth.

The policies might be dumb, poorly thought out, poorly implemented etc, but that's a far cry from "It's illegal, all of it"

it’s also worth noting that the actions of a police officer do not necessarily reflect the policies in place in the department or city by which they are employed. Much as we have idiot pilots and FAs thy say incorrect things to passengers, police departments have idiot cops that say dumb things.

The TSA reported 154k through check points yesterday. That’s a pretty big jump, any bets on when it hits 200k?

I know it’s still not 2.5M, but it’s moving in the right direction.

Casinos in Las Vegas are preparing to open May 15th; Cirque shows to begin in July. This assumes the governor of Nevada doesn't delay openings. A Disney World/Disney Land announcement would be another great sign.

I called them to find out.

They said, "We're closed. Beat it!"
