Using the police for “social distancing” is bad because:
1. The police are armed with guns, pepper spray.
2. The police carry sticks and handcuffs.
3. The police are trained to subdue anyone who resists.
4. The criminal “Justice” system can deprive you of your liberty, property, reputation and life.

5. The police have a mind that is binary: either/or, yes/no. There are no subtle distinctions such as “This guy is no danger to me.” or “Walking 5.9 feet of another person is not a crime, even if the government says it is.”
6. Sending the police for walking too close implies not caring if a woman is being raped at that moment and there is no cop available.

I have little respect for elected officials who are enjoying their excursion into fascism.

Well, technically you can’t rape someone without also violating the social distancing rules, so they should care about that...

That list is PRECISELY why Newsom, Garcetti, Pritzker, Whitmer and their ilk are all in on using the heaviest handed blunt instrument they can find on the peasants.
