Adams County district attorney Brian Sinnett told The York Dispatch that “appropriate enforcement action will take place” if Lincoln Speedway runs another dirt track racing program in violation of Pa. Gov. Tom Wolf’s coronavirus reopening plan orders.
It sets up what should be an interesting couple of days ahead, as Lincoln already has announced plans to hold 410 and 358 sprints this Saturday after running a program on Memorial Day in front of fans despite being in the yellow phase of Wolf’s plan, which doesn’t allow for gatherings of more than 25 people and also doesn’t give a green light to most sporting events.
“The State Police, together with this office, will monitor the circumstances should future races occur and appropriate enforcement action will take place,” Sinnett said.
Sinnett also told the outlet this week that no citations will be issued for last Monday night’s race program, however, which took place in front of fans who signed a waiver to enter the venue and were then seated in every other row to promote social distancing. Brian Monteith was the winner of that race.
Lincoln’s website was still promoting this Saturday’s race as of 7 p.m. Wednesday and also listed the waiver on its website for fans to download, fill out, and bring to the track.
As for the enforcement options available to Sinnett’s office and Pennsylvania State Police, those could range from fines to business license suspensions, or even possibly the arrest of track operators, though Sinnett did not elaborate on what ‘appropriate enforcement action’ meant in the Dispatch story.
On Wednesday, Wolf’s office announced guidelines related to pro sports leagues and teams returning to practice and games in counties in the yellow or green phase, but those stopped short of addressing things like dirt track racing, which is to only resume once a county reaches green.
“Openly carrying a firearm is perfectly legal in Pennsylvania as long as the person is a law-abiding citizen
and is allowed to own a gun. “You may carry it openly and notoriously.”
I highly recommend this book.
Lived in PA most my life. In Ohio now. Remember a friend describing Wolf as a commie. Guess he was right.
Coronavirus is simply a terrible excuse at this point for controlling the masses. They will need to find something else soon that is more convincing.

So now we're stuck with the Keystone Kenyan.
What law did the legislature pass to make this a crime. And what punishment was passed by legislature to enforce this law, of are we at the whim of the dictator to say something is illegal and arbitrarily assign punishment?

In Pennsylvania we seem to be at the whim of a dictator who changes his mind more frequently than he changes underwearand who receives sound medical advice from Dr. (Dickless) “Rachel” Levine.

We’re living a Mel Brooks movie.
Some citizens need to get together and arrest Tom Wolf.
*** Bring some of those state trooper cars onto the track and see who they can catch ***
They’ll just park a few cars in the curb lane and do some paperwork or catch some zzzz’s while generally causing all traffic to slow down in surprise. Seen it done a million times on the PA Turnpike, I-78, I-81 and so forth.
