Spring breakers invading Miami Beach have become so uncontrollable that authorities imposed a curfew on Saturday and declared a state of emergency as SWAT teams were seen moving in to clear people out. ...

But this year the volume is clearly higher than in previous years, said Miami Beach Mayor Dan Gelber, who's expressed concern about the lack of coronavirus restrictions - like wearing a mask - in Florida. ...

For the next 72 hours, visitors will have to leave streets and restaurants will close their doors at 8pm in the main tourist areas of South Beach, the epicenter of the city's party scene, authorities announced.

Their doors cannot open again until 6am each morning, authorities said

That doesn’t look like your typical spring break crowd.

I wonder how many of them are northerners who are actually on spring break from college.

I don’t know about other schools, but Bama has no Spring Break this year. They gave students one day off.

I'm conflicted on this. You can see by the pictures that there is not a shred of civility and it does appear it was out of control. It's disgusting. However, calling in a SWAT team? How long before SWAT is called on gatherings by Patriots?

That's exactly the point. If they can get away with calling SWAT Teams on a bunch of spring breakers -- just imagine what they'll do to anyone who's a patriot and resists their acts of tyranny?

My grandson is at college in N.C. and has no spring break.

and just what would your perfect world prescribe to handle this situation? Education? Reparations? How do you handle unrest??

Takes a lot of courage to sit behind a keyboard and pretend to be Constitutionally minded when the other side disregard's Law and Order so prevalent...

You've completely missed the point (as usual) and I'm not prone to arguing with people who miss simple concepts.

Try to have a nice day.

Exactly my thinking. Apparently, some on the thread are doubtful that that would happen.

A culture of lewdness and revelries of trash conduct on display. Doesn’t quite measure up to MLK’s ‘content of character’ side of the equation. Cardi B values on the streets.

And Miami just hired Houston’s police chief Art Acevedo...a Lefty.

Less than 5% of full time Miami Beach residents are Black.

Almost 93% of full time residents are white or Hispanic.

Many decades ago, when I lived in south Florida, at least one third of the full time residents were Jewish.

This Black Spring Break has been going on for many years in Miami Beach.

The Black visitors actually have their own title name for this event, but I cannot remember what they call it.

“...police had hoped it was a one-time event but ‘last night we had three of those situations and we had a young lady that got hurt as a result of trying to run away from a crowd....”
*****************************************************
Reading between the lines I have to wonder what would have happened to her had the “young lady” NOT run from the crowd.

I don’t think you have to ‘wonder’ too much before arriving at the answer.

Let me get this straight: BLM and ANTIFA can demonstrate & riot during the height of the COVID lockdown, but Spring-breakers draw SWAT when the COVID thing is easing off? Who is running this sh*tshow? Oh, Miami — that would be Democrats.

Welcome to the jungle, it gets worse here everyday
You learn to live like an animal in the jungle where we play
If you got a hunger for what you see, you’ll take it eventually
You can have anything you want, but you better not take it from me

Every company makes their own call...

Most everyone wears a mask in a grocery store - and almost no one wears one at the beach. Everything else is in-between.
