'Human parking spots' descend on SF's Dolores Park to keep people apart

Dolores Park got a polka-dot makeover on Wednesday morning courtesy of the San Francisco Recreation & Parks Department.

To aid social distancing as the summer beckons and the region moves into Stage 2 of Gov. Newsom's statewide reopening plan, white chalk circles were painted across the popular two-block park on the western edge of the city's Mission District.

The social-distance guidance circles, around six feet in diameter, are designed to help park-goers know when they are getting a little too cozy amid the coronavirus pandemic, and San Franciscans largely welcomed the addition Wednesday afternoon.

What I like is, after paragraph after paragraph glowing about the wonderful idea this is and so much better than bans... a small blurb about some studies showing Wuhan doesn’t spread easily through the air: “Though mask-wearing and six-foot distancing is still advised across the Bay Area, some studies have shown that the risk of open-air transmission of the COVID-19 virus is low.”

Thanks for THE TRUTH.

Just look at those lemmings. So proud of themselves for being “compliant”

I give the team and stadium officials a 2 thumbs up for effort for trying to make the event as memorable as possible. 8-)

Meanwhile the homeless are sleeping on top of each other

And not getting Corona Virus.

Liberal: “You shouldn’t do that because (blah, blah, blah for ten minutes).”

“Um - it’s a target - not an animal.”

“Oh...”

And yes - that does happen.

I thought the left didn’t believe in borders 🤔.

[Trillian]

I can’t believe people actually listen to this crap.

And according to FR’s Surrender Monkeys, these are the left-wing, 10-foot-tall Rambos who will go door-to-door and confiscate your battle rifles.

HaHaHa!

IOW, ANTI-social distancing.

Liberals bastardize the meaning of everything.

BTW, If you're wearing a mask why do I need one?

Also, why do you need a mask if you maintain the (arbitrary) "social distance"?...(actually, it's an ANTI-social distance).

bunch'a friggin' jackasses ! !

Me n' MY generation would'a ignored the damned things ... or just to piss 'em off ..... pass the word n' ev'ryone sit in the space where the four circles "enjoin"

Force THEM to try to force US to "C'mon now, get in your circle"

Another thing Dolores park is famous for is the ‘open air urinal’ they have there, google it.

At least you get to hang it out as you point towards MUNI.

Kinda makes SF an ‘open sewer’...

[chris37]

Yep, there we go.

I’m not sure what that image is from though.

[Lurker]

35 million people out of work and these dickheads had money to do this.

And people are putting up with it.

Insane.

[hal ogen]

What absolute leftist lunatic losers . ..both those who came up with the idea and those who accept it. Nitwits on parade.
