Funny thing about power. Many get addicted to it.

This time it is for what most think is a good reason.

Will it be a good reason the next time?

Yes. It will be a hard habit for them to break.

Their reason is starting to sound hollow.

The next time may very well be to enforce climate change rules, if President Trump is not re-elected.

We are being probed and tested. Be sensible but pushback is important when appropriate. If not, the new norm will not include freedom to assemble.

Good question. And when will they give up these powers? Will next time's threshold be even lower? I'd bet yes on that.

PERSPECTIVE: As of 10:53 the USA has 4,661 cases and 85 deaths. By contrast, the influenza outbreak of 2012-2013 had 56,000 deaths.

And thus ends the US. It was a good run while it lasted, but we have lost our republic. Willingly turned it over in fact. Over a virus and some media induced panic. Get used to the empty shelves. Our socialist overlords will see to it that it stays that way
