Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker plans to issue a shelter-in-place order for the entire state starting Saturday, essentially commanding residents to stay in their homes as the officials take drastic measures to slow the spread of the coronavirus, sources told the Chicago Tribune.
Pritzker is expected to announce the directive at a 3 p.m. Friday news conference along with Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot. Details are still being worked out, sources said.

If I drive to a few towns, tomorrow, what can the government do about it? I want to go to Glenvew, for about two hours, and to Bartlett, for about an hour. Neither of those rooms will have more than five people.
Motley looking crew.
Ha!
I got pulled over for a bad low beam one night.
My car happens to look very similar to a local “distributor’s” Mag.
When I rolled down the window, the look of disappointment on the cop’s face was tragic.
Instead of a hood rat, he found a puny little broad behind the wheel.
Still wrote me the repair order, despite me telling him that I was *literally* on my way to Autozone, a mere 50 feet from where he stopped me, to get the light bulb, already.
During the time it took to run my plates and write the order, AZ closed.
Had to go back the next day.
Good point, how the heck will they enforce this “rule”? They already said the National Guard will be out helping with relief efforts instead of patrolling neighborhoods to enforce the lockdown. My friend in Chicago is having a board game night tomorrow, should be less than 10 people in attendance. I could just take my car out to “get groceries”, which is “allowed” under the “lockdown”
I read a bit of it and kind of lost interest.
:D
What a pr.ck!!
He had to stand outside in the -10 cold to do all that so I reckon we were square.
The Prickster will probably do like his lefty colleagues and close gun stores as “nonessential”.
Proves the point that when the government says “you don’t neeeeeeed a gun”, that’s when you really need one!
Like “The Cockroach that Ate Cincinnati”?
This time the cockroach is a gun grabber and lives in the IL State House. Midwest version of Blackface Northam.
ROFL!
it seemed to boil down to (IMO): you say neether, I say nyether
I’m working on a tension migraine so my ability to spend too much time reading is a bit limited right now.
I will take your word for it and possibly check it out later
:)
Some details, here:
Did you see this?
On Jan 14 2020 the WHO reported
Preliminary investigations conducted by the Chinese authorities have found no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission of the novel #coronavirus (2019-nCoV) identified in #Wuhan, #China

They’ve done that before in history before issuing railroad passes and orders to report to new “jobs” that will macht them frei.
All that after collecting unecessary firearms.
The Guard are mostly US or younger versions.
God bless’em and they won’t be taking your guns or mine.
Maybe BATF or Nato but not our boys or sheriffs, IMHO
If you think sheltering in place for two weeks is bad wait until they lift the order. People will make a mad rush for food, medicine & supplies to replenish their stocks. Thats when the real fun begins.
i don’t go out often, but when i do, i carry
