We have rather taken for granted the constitutional guarantees of certainty, rule of law, and due process in recent years. We ignored the water drip torture of prosecutorial misconduct (the Trayvon Martin, Lewis Libby, Ted Stevens cases) and government overreaching (ObamaCare, the Kelo case), but in the past few weeks more of us -- from surfers and skateboarders to doctors, dentists, hospitals, and small shopkeepers -- have been forced to realize what life without these protections is like. And we don’t like it, any more than we like how the government lied, ignored the law quite clearly for purely partisan political purposes, and set up General Mike Flynn for an expensive criminal proceeding. Reminding us that we have important rights that we should demand be respected is a good thing.
Of course, these restrictions set by the governors, and sometimes mayors or county chairmen, do violate our constitutional rights to free speech, assembly, due process, religion, and against takings. In the past, courts have permitted some limits in exigent circumstances, but for limited periods of time and when the government could prove after a hearing which afforded due process (testing the evidence) that no other, less restrictive means were available to deal with an emergency. Things like hurricanes (short term) or smallpox (for which there was already in place a viable vaccine). That is not the case with COVID-19. There is no vaccine and likely won’t be one any time soon enough to avoid further crashing the economy. There is no agreed-upon end point: Will the restrictions vanish only when there is no longer a single case, when everyone has been tested, when the Democrats retake the White House? Moreover, as I will show, the restrictions have often gone far beyond what is justifiable under the Bill of Rights.

Waiting for some dope on the left, probably a professor in racial and inequality studies to claim that the face masks are racially motivated just like anyone who wears a hoody on 90 degree weather
No kidding! I was in the bank the other day and some guy walked in without a mask on.
Everybody hit the floor!
For a few weeks I used a neckerchief (bandana). Looking in the mirror I immediately thought ‘bank robber’
I’ve only worn a mask for a couple of days, but it was a camo mask and I was hunting turkeys. Where did you find a bank that has the lobby open?
The way I understood patient that were in the New York hospitals for surgeries and didn't have the virus were supposed to be transferred to the ship to make room for those patients that had the virus. Somehow though the wires were crossed and patient with the virus were brought on to the ship.
Subject:: It’s not about your health!
“When the State tells you it’s safe to go to Home Depot to buy a sponge but dangerous to go and buy a flower, it’s not about your health.
When the State shuts down millions of private businesses but doesn’t lay off a single government employee, it’s not about your health.
When the State bans dentists because its unsafe, but deems an abortion visit is safe, it’s not about your health.
When the State prevents you from buying cucumber seeds because it’s dangerous, but allows personal lottery ticket sales, it’s not about your health.
When the State tells you it’s dangerous to go golf alone, fish alone or be in a motor boat alone, but the Governor can get his stage make-up done, and hair done for 5 TV appearances a week, it’s not about your health.
When the state puts you IN a jail cell for walking in a park with your child because it’s too dangerous but lets criminals OUT of jail cells for their health- It’s not about YOUR health!
When the state tells you it’s too dangerous to get treated by a doctor for chiropractic or physical therapy treatments yet deems a liquor store essential- It’s not about your health!
When the State lets you go to the grocery store or hardware store but is demanding mail-in voting, ITS NOT ABOUT YOUR HEALTH.
WAKE UP PEOPLE — If you think this is all about your health you’re mistaken! Please open your eyes! Stop being lead like blind sheep.”
Saw this earlier. Responding so I can find it again. Good one.

You couldn't get real life examples any closer to the nitwits in "Dumb and Dumber" if you tried.
Are these two bumbling idiots the best New York has to offer? What a joke both of them are.
It's no wonder people are fleeing New York at a faster rate than almost any other state in the union.
For a few weeks I used a neckerchief (bandanna). Looking in the mirror I immediately thought ‘bank robber’.
My wife fixed an orange camo handkerchief/(bandanna) for me.
After getting some stares in a parking lot, I now have a little multi color one made by a friend on the dash board.
When we pick up a grocery order, if the person delivering it
has a mask, I will put it on. Basically, no one working at HD or the grocery stores has worn one for close to 2 weeks.
For later.

Great post! I hope you don’t mind if I share it.
Thanks, one of my conservative SIL’s sent that late yesterday.
It really summarizes, the stupid realities we have been living under since mid march.
Please use here and with your email people.
Share here and on your email lists and one of our younger relatives is printing up to hand out this weekend.
He was at the Sacramento Protest last week. They got there late and couldn’t get near the main protest. So they started one where they were. Before it was over, 6 more pickups loaded with young protesters and flags had joined them.
Thanks, please share it and use it.
They changed that. I distinctly recall the ship readied for and accepting covid-19 patients.
Preach it brother! See tagline.
Thanks to HotHunt for the above great visual!
If people want to stay home, let them! NO ONE wants to force them to go out!
