Covid-19

I'm watching two businesses of two good friends die a slow death and Stay-In-Place has been moved to May 4th. Not to stop anything mind you, just to delay it. We've pushed the 'peak' to April, then to May, and now we are saying July.

Someone explain to me how it's okay to go biking, hiking, running, etc but I cannot go play golf?

I am losing patience with this shit.

This was an emotional rant brought on by the imminent demise of small businesses that are very near and dear to my heart....they cannot even be open for 'curbside'. I will likely re-think this rant at some point in the future and delete this post, but until then....if you are 'at risk' then stay home, but get this country open again.

Move to Arizona, we can play golf here. The cups are turned over, no carts, your only interaction is when you pay your green fee. Couples only, no foursomes.

However, I agree with you. I don't think this response has been good at all, we're slowly destroying the Global economy.

So, this happened:

So the truth shall set you free or if it was another country, have you strung up. We don't have the resources to quarantine everyone flying in. Let's not ban travel from the pandemic source because it'll upset our commie friend's. Hell, they still aren't properly screening flights in and we still get flights from China daily.

Trudeau government didn't quarantine tens of thousands of Chinese travellers due to lack of resources

I see Canadians baying for blood when this is done. Trudeau and the liberal govt have been screwing the Canadian people over so much that I don't see how they're going to remain in power. Between letting infected Chicoms and Iranians in, letting leftist/commie backed radicals hold Canada hostage, and oil revenues being lost, I see the liberal gravy train and coming to an end.

Considering that the coastal provinces tax the ever living crap outta y'alls oil sands sector, I can't imagine central Canada bearing the burden without growing angrier and more disillusioned. I'm sorry guys. I really hope you guys pull through, cause things were rough on y'all before this Pandemic.

I wish Canadian's watched or read more news than our main media sources, who happen to be funded by the Liberal's. So they never speak ill of the Shiny Pony. I read something this morning saying 60 some percent of Canadian's approve of his handling of this. The Liberal's might stick around for a while with these idiots.

That's great.. but all my liberal friends are saying that it's all unscientific to even consider any of these things.. since it hasn't gone through clinical trials and stuff

That’s essentially correct, but extraordinary times demand extraordinary measures, you use what’s at hand. There’s another drug, a TB drug which can inhibit COVID-19 which I think is being used in the UK. I’ll try & find the link.

Can't play catch with your daughter apparently because Brighton PD (CO) doesn't know the stay-at-home order. Former police officer arrested in park for throwing ball with daughter due to coronavirus social distancing rules

F that guy, former cop or not.

The park was closed.

If everyone acted like the former cop, then the park would have been packed full of people spreading this shit around.

The guy refused to leave.

The guy refused to provide I.D.

The cops warned him they would put him in handcuffs.

He argued, he got arrested.

Good.

Last week we had a local bar get raided because the owner didn't want to stay closed.

Today I learned that a retail shop that was supposed to be closed, was still serving customers out the back door.

Tired. T - I - R - E - D I am about sick and fucking tired of people who believe the rules do not apply to them, and then when they get told otherwise, they get fucking butthurt about it.

Stop fucking around and keep your entitled ass at home.

Hard disagree. Park wasn't closed to groups under 4 people. He broke no laws. Also, as per the stay at home order in Colorado, much like most states, it allows for outdoor activities as long as you are maintaining social distancing. The park's sign stated “in groups of no more than 4 persons, parks remain open for walking, hiking, biking, running and similar activities.”

The fact that the police department has apologized shows they were in the wrong here.

Colorado police have admitted that it was "evident there was an overreach by our police officers" and have apologized to a resident after arresting him at a park on Sunday in front of his 6-year-old daughter for allegedly violating social distancing rules.
