LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- As the number of coronavirus cases in California rapidly escalates, Gov. Gavin Newsom is calling for all bars in the state to close. Newsom is also asking all Californians age 65 and older and those with chronic conditions to isolate themselves at home.

"We are calling for the home isolation of all those 65 years or older and all those with chronic conditions," Newsom said.

He said all bars, wineries, nightclubs and brewpubs should be closed.

Glad he’s not shutting everybody down, but why target bars only?

Should be, or WILL be closed by FORCE?

What is this sudden infatuation with Democrat governors and Mayors shutting down bars and liquor stores?!

Have they made a deal with CAIR?

I get the impression that even in red states, restaurants are preparing for the formal state government order to cease dine-in operations:


Many Dallas-area restaurants are pivoting to curbside pickup and ‘no-touch’ delivery as more customers stay home

The police CANNOT or WILL NOT enforce:

homelessness

shooting up drugs on the streets

defecating on the streets

thefts of $950 & under

food carts & food trucks

most other crimes

but now, all of a sudden they can enforce an open bar or brew pub?

The gestapo have truly taken over.

I would like to know, if these elders are to stay in their homes, is someone going to bring them their medications? Food? Other supplies?

Furthermore, are they to shut down ALL trucks stops?

Apparently, many people don’t like freedom and the risks it brings. If you chose to not go somewhere, OK. To have the government shut your businesses and make people stay isolated seems a bit of overkill. I guess some like fascist maneuvers by our “leaders”. Some mayor stopped the sales of guns and ammo. I guess that will stop people from shooting any virus that gets on their property. Smart thinking there...Genius!

In a totalitarian state only the lawful get punished as a demonstration to the others.
