Non essential? Like the Mayor’s Office?

[stuckincali]

The office is essential. The current idiots in it not so much.

If you want to hear a real metrosexual, bleeding heart, cumbya cheerleader listen to Eric Garshitty (Garcetti) most days on John and Ken KFI for his daily briefing.

He is the guy who started his time in office by saying we should thank inmates for doing their time when they get out. He just coined the term “Unhoused Neighbors” for homeless bums and vagabonds.

Went to iowa to peddle his BS and was sent home and told not gonna be president.

Remember folks, wherever you are, if you don’t tell them where you are going they can’t make it stick. No different than any other encounter with law enforcement. Keep your F****** mouth shut. And, if they say its okay and they are just collecting information, tell them to FO.

What a great opportunity to inform citizens of what democrats are truly like with power. I’m thankful the President Trump has refrained from issuing a nationwide isolation rule. This allows the contrast to be painfully obvious to even the most ardent supporters of the left. I often say that only those who are inexperienced or ignorant of history can have a desire for socialism or communism. This will give them a chance to see how little a government can provide versus the bounty of capitalism.

Liberals can’t help it. It’s who they are. Listened to reporter’s question the Mayor of Jacksonville, Florida, at a press conference re new stay at home announcement. The reporter’s were disappointed learning law enforcement was not going to be arresting people who misbehaved.

This could be a good way to get rid of Democrat neighbors. Chances are that they presume the rules are for other people and they go out anyway.

It’s coming for everyone. In Nashville you can call 311 and “report” anyone you “think SHOULD’NT be doing” something.

And to think there are hundreds of blithering idiots here on FR now telling us we are delusional to think our basic rights are being violated.

[Fledermaus]

No way, they are too busy telling us we aren't seeing the erosion of the Constitution. It's all in our minds.

Some dickhead mayor in NY actually threatened to take away property of a Jewish synagogue forever if they held services. But move along folks, nothing to see here.

[ Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti (D) is encouraging residents in his city to tattletale on their neighbors who defy his stay-at-home order. ]

[That sure sound like the 3rd Reich in Germany]

Inside of every Democrat is a Nazi screaming to get out.

This is why they like to control silly things, like plastic bags, plastic straws and 32oz soft drinks (Bloomberg).

That reminds me of the old days at the beach.. watching police officers trying to get surfers (who didn’t stay on their side of the ocean!) to come in so they could arrest them. It was always entertaining and then sad.

[Kriggerel]

...And wind up in ditches.

I’m curious how much this will result in false accusations by snitchy neighbors with an axe to grind.

It's more reminiscent of East Germany actually. Documents seized after the fall of the Berlin Wall showed that about one-in-eight East Germans were Stasi informants.They showed that neighbors informed on neighbors,kids informed on their parents and PARENTS INFORMED ON THEIR KIDS.

In the book "Stasi" (a great read) Simon Weisenthal,the famous Nazi hunter,is quoted as saying that in his opinion the Stasi was worse than the Gestapo.

It would take a lot of nasty to be worse than the Gestapo.But it seems like Garcetti's got that nasty!

I was in Manhattan yesterday. The "main hall" (don't know its official name) of Grand Central Station had three people in it while I was walking through (me being the third). The subways were almost empty...and the few I saw there were all schizophrenics (including me,I guess).

While there I asked a cop for directions and he was polite and helpful...didn't threaten me with handcuffs or anything.

Don’t expect the LAPD to respect their city limits. They have been sued lots of times for enforcement of city code outside the city limits and you can count on them to keep doing this.
