CNN ^

WTH is going on in Gallup, NM? The story doesn't shed any light on it. It only brings up more questioins. Is this a small test run for marshal law, state wide in lefty states? Is this a trial ballooon for blue states? What?

Did anyone else notice that the vast majority of ‘stupidly responding’ states are governed by democrats and the most stupidly-est seem to be run by female democrats?

The media is also throwing out woman are great leaders and they are the ones who are handling this the best. It may sicken to read the other side but it is intelligence.Just because we think we are right,doesn't mean anything to the left and the uniformed.

“Google! You may even find the earlier threads on FR.”

Maybe even something referencing “martial” law, which I’m sure the previous poster was just in a hurry when typing. :-)

Why don’t you be friend and show me the correct way.

You could try populating the source and the URL correctly next time. After 19 years you think you'd have figured that out.

As others have pointed out “martial law” is what you meant.

I posted this a couple of days ago:

first, google had this headline:

How New Mexico flattened the coronavirus curve
New York Times - 1 May 2020

but, when I clicked on it, I got this headline:

1 May: NYT: How New Mexico Is Beating the Virus
It has two things missing elsewhere: political leadership and a strong health system.
By Richard Parker
LAS CRUCES, N.M. — On March 13, the same day that a reluctant President Trump admitted that the coronavirus pandemic was a national emergency, a storied New Mexico hospital established the nation’s first drive-through testing for the virus...

Two recent developments made a difference, though. Though the oil and gas boom has gone bust, while it lasted it helped fill the state’s coffers, providing something of a fiscal cushion. The second is Governor Lujan Grisham. Before serving as governor (and before that, a U.S. representative), she had been the state’s health secretary...

With a little more than 3,200 cases, New Mexico’s infection rate is on par with similarly sized states like Nebraska and Kansas. But with over 65,000 tests so far — outstripping richer Texas on a per capita basis — the death rate has remained lower than neighboring Colorado or nearby Nevada. A total of 112 people have died in New Mexico, according to state data...

A total of 112 people have died in New Mexico, according to state data...

At a briefing last week in Santa Fe, Ms. Lujan Grisham did something that still has eluded Mr. Trump: She showed compassion...

New Mexico isn’t out of the proverbial woods yet; infections rage on the Navajo reservation in the western part of the state, stretching into Arizona, with infection rates akin to New York. Already, Navajo officials have recorded nearly 1,200 infections and the entire Navajo police force is being tested.
And, even with a massive death toll averted, she and the state’s 2.2 million people face economic devastation...

same day, this popped up on all the FakeNewsMSM:

1 May: Fox News: New Mexico governor orders roads closed to city of Gallup in effort to stop coronavirus spread
By Morgan Phillips
To help control a surging outbreak in the city, the Democratic governor locked down the city at the request of Gallup’s mayor, Grisham said in a news release.
The Riot Control Act allows the state’s governor to enact temporary restrictions under a state of emergency, including prohibiting residents from being on public streets and the use of certain streets and highways.
Beginning noon Friday, all roads into the city were shut down and businesses were required to close from 5 p.m. until 8 a.m. in the city of 70,000. Additionally, only two people are allowed in a vehicle at the same time.
The governor said residents should shelter in place “unless absolutely necessary for health or safety or a medical emergency.”

Anyone who fails to comply with the restrictions will be found guilty of a misdemeanor, or a fourth-degree felony if they are found to be breaking the rules more than once.
The city’s lockdown will expire May 4, as the Riot Control Act terminates automatically at noon on the third day after it becomes effective...

According to Grisham, McKinley County, where Gallup is located, has reported 1,027 positive coronavirus cases, more than 30 percent of the state’s total. The county has also faced ***19 deaths.

“Its infection trend shows no sign of flattening,” a press release from the governor’s office said.
(Mayor Jack)McKinney called the outbreak in his city a “crisis of the highest order.”...

I lived in Farmington NM back in 1954-1956, and 1973-1977. Go back quite often as I consider it my “true” home.

Also lived at Moab and La Sal Utah.

Sadly true. Back then, there were two causes of plagues and diseases. Bad air (Miasma) and the Evil Eye. Microbes were unknown at the time.

That place is cursed. Not only is it where the worst nuclear accident in US history happened, the Church Rock uranium mill spill,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_Rock_uranium_mill_spill

but there is dire poverty and terrible alcoholism, with some early mornings the desert around there is covered with bodies like a battle happened.

The Indian Health Service sucks, which is a big reason for the spread of the virus.

Didn’t see this thread yesterday. Do a keyword search for “Gallup” to view the original and update threads.
