WBOC-TV Salisbury, MD ^ | 4/10/20 | WBOC staff

LEWES, Del.- The Lewes Police Department is using new technology in this new normal.

The police department has a drone that flies over bike trails and the beach. If it sees people walking too close, it broadcasts a message reminding them of the state of emergency and social distancing guidelines.

Keep in mind too that smart phones can track where you have been.

1984 was supposed to be a warning, not an instruction manual

Toss your smart phones in a pile and wait for the SWAT team to show up.

Hours of fun for the entire family.

If any one were to tell me that I’d be reading this just a few months ago, I’d think they were crazy. I can only pray no one gets comfortable with this.

The drones are attempting to justify the use of drones rather than to enforce distancing.

Saw that Ohio (shut down since March 9), Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina and Arkansas received D-, for following “Stay Home” protocol. Too many folks out and about.

Well good for us in NC...

Because we do NOT have a problem here...not that our governor knows that...he wants to make it tougher to live here.
MORE restrictions coming tomorrow.
Hell, why not just deliver boxes of food to your door with your TP allotment. And oh yeah...STOP THAT BREATHING>>>YOU ARE SPREADING THE VIRUS.

Enough of this crap already.

We been had.

So about the drones: do they have “ears” to hear me say “Go eff yourself”?

‘With the wrong president we could go to hell in a hand basket real quick’

a president, any president, cannot dictate to the various governors how to run their states; he could order furloughed federal workers back to their posts, but he can’t order a state to get up and running, if the governor opposes it...
