No one was ever able to explain to my satisfaction why beaches, golf courses, hiking trails and the like were ever closed, for the reasons you list.
What was interesting, I thought, about this piece is that Naples, a red county, opened its beaches, probably using the same reasoning. Miami, a blue area, has kept their beaches closed. So what happens? The blue voters decide to vote with their feet and go to Naples. The people in Naples, who had made choices that resulted in a much lower spread of the CCP virus, understandably looked askance at the hoards driving in from distant, Clamped-down counties.
Broward Co - famous Dem stronghold - is talking about arresting people and dragging them out of their homes to quarantine “facilities” if they test positive. Of course, they’ve also closed all outdoor access, so what are people supposed to do? DeSantis should intervene with some of these Dem counties. It’s nuts.
Then we have the mayor of Gainesville (Alachua County, radical leftist because of the UF faculty and staff) who filled in the skatepark with mulch...
Honestly, how much more are we going to take?
