Pasadena lifted the curfew yesterday... but it’s not on their website yet. Apparently the public doesn’t know either.

Walmart is open from 8:00AM to 8:30PM. I don’t know if they are only letting a small number of people in at a time or not. Some of the grocery stores were doing that last week even if they did have full power. (insert eye-roll here)

I’m listening to Johnny Isbel’s address from yesterday. What did people ever do before FEMA and complete government control? The “man” wasn’t there to bail every one out after Alicia. Power and cell phone weren’t constitutional rights. Grrrr.

I’m surprised at the number of people who think indefinite curfew and corporate hand holding/criminalizing the customer are perfectly fine.

Bill White and METRO need to open up the HOV lanes!

Bill White can’t lift this curfew because he did not impose it. HPD did and it probably wouldn’t pass legal tests but you’d have to cover expenses to go to court and challenge it.

Only the mayor and governor can impose a curfew when a state of emergency has been declared, no?
