[B]Rhode Island Police “Hunting Down” New Yorkers Fleeing The City[/B]

With New York City in the grip of the novel coronavirus and looking more and more like a movie featuring Snake Plissken, many of the wealthier denizens of Gotham have been fleeing to vacation homes in nearby states with less viral activity. [...]


[QUOTE]Rhode Island police began stopping cars with New York plates Friday. On Saturday, the National Guard will help them conduct house-to-house searches to find people who traveled from New York and demand 14 days of self-quarantine.

“Right now we have a pinpointed risk,” Governor Gina Raimondo said. “That risk is called New York City.”

New York is the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak in the U.S., on Friday reporting a total of 44,000 cases.

Rhode Island has just over 200, and it has begun an aggressive campaign to keep the virus out and New Yorkers contained, over objections from civil liberties advocates.[/QUOTE]

When I wrote yesterday about the emerging coronavirus police state, this is precisely the type of thing I had in mind. Governor Raimondo (who is already the fourth least popular governor in the nation) isn’t pulling her punches here. In a separate statement she declared she had consulted lawyers and said while she couldn’t close the border, she felt confident she could enforce a quarantine.



Let that sink in for a moment. She was serious enough about potentially closing the borders of her state that she took the question to her lawyers. Having apparently been informed that she’s not constitutionally empowered to take such an action, she fell back to the idea of simply locking all of the New Yorkers indoors and away from the public. Her public statement on that subject was put as bluntly as you would imagine.

“Yesterday I announced and today I reiterated: Anyone coming to Rhode Island in any way from New York must be quarantined. By order. Will be enforced. Enforceable by law.”

So Rhode Island law enforcement officers will forcibly quarantine any New Yorkers in the state. Precisely how they plan to do that isn’t specified. Her executive order applies to anyone who has been in New York in the past 14 days. She is further calling out the National Guard to be stationed at the T.F. Green airport, Amtrak train stations and at bus stops. The Guardsmen will also be “following up with people at local residences.”

The maximum penalty for noncompliance? A fine of $500 and 90 days in prison.

Keep in mind that many (though not all) of the people in question are not tourists looking for hotel rooms. Most of them own second homes in Rhode Island. They pay taxes there and for at least part of the year are residents. But since they also spend time in New York, armed members of the military will be knocking on their doors, following their vehicles and threatening to send them to prison if they dare come out in public.

Yesterday afternoon, state police were set up on the northbound lane of Interstate 95. A prominent sign instructed all passenger vehicles from New York to pull over at the adjacent rest area. Troopers were seen questioning the passengers of the vehicles. This is insanity.

I understand that the pandemic is a serious matter and public officials are struggling to keep people safe. But at the same time, being from New York or having a New York State license plate does not qualify as probable cause to pull anyone over, interrogate them or tell them to turn around and go home.

Billy, you know there's no such thing as a safe goober ...

And even if one were not a goober, there's always somebody out there claiming a goober allergy.

This is why we can't have any fun anymore, or even snacks on a plane.

Kurt Schlicter is often over-the-top, and often spot-on.


This column is a classic, even though it's "dammit" or "damn it" and not what he said.


[QUOTE]The problem with people referring to this bizarre pandemic life limbo as “the new normal” is that there are people out there, both in and out of positions of responsibility, who are digging this opportunity to boss us around. And it is troubling to see that there are a number of prominent folks who are in no hurry to curtail their ability to boss us around. We need to note carefully who these people are and ensure that they never get a chance to control anything again.

You are starting to see more of that as this drags out. You have got Nancy Pelosi, Gavin Newsom and others thinking this is a great time to get our socialism on. You also have functionaries – all of whom are still getting paychecks – who are way too eager to start issuing orders instead of relying on citizens to behave rationally. We don’t need to be ordered around, but they can’t resist the ordering. The moron mayor of LA is offering rewards to freedom narcs, and government hacks making stores refuse to sell “non-essential” items – what the hell they are thinking telling us what is and is not “essential” anyway? They are thinking, “Hey, this power stuff is fun!” Which is why you should never give power to someone who enjoys it.

The mainstream media, when it’s not otherwise engaged in covering for the bat-eating ChiComs and ignoring the credible #MeToo allegations against ole Grandpa Badfinger, is cheerleading to shut down the entire country. Of course, just because New Yorkers live on top of each other in a festering urban petri dish does not mean everyone else does, but who cares? If those urban swells have to sit tight in their crappy walk-ups watching Netflix, so do those folks out in Jesusland, damnit. Also, they feel the need to close the gun stores since the manly act of purchasing equipment to defend one’s self, family, community, and Constitution shames the liberal sissies whose low-T lifestyle keeps them from doing their duty.

Even some randos are joining in. We have all seen vids of bossy people on the street screaming at other people who refuse to truss up their pieholes like suburban banditos. The proper response to the Junior G-men (most of whom appear to be hard five chicks named “Karen”) is to invite them to do to themselves what their husbands cannot or will not do.

And there’s that video of mortified deputies waiting on an LA beach for some surfer to come back to the sand, because being alone in the Pacific is basically condemning millions to infection or something. What it really constitutes is defiance, not danger, which our midwit overlords cannot abide. And just imagine that you signed up to be a cop thinking you’d live Heat and instead you’re popping Spicoli for riding some tasty waves.

“We’re gonna have to take him in the water. Wait till he’s all in. Get clean shots. Watch your background.” (BTW, I will be discussing Heat and other stuff you should watch while incarcerated on my next Townhall VIP podcast “Unredacted”).

What is particularly troubling are the medical experts who gleefully demand months of our continued imprisonment. They can’t seem to understand that the medical angle is only one component of this situation. Yes, it’s an important one. So is not creating a depression. Now, there’s nothing shocking that medical people will look at a situation from a purely medical perspective. Back in Kosovo, when my appendix decided to vapor lock, they told me “The surgeon is out doing a MEDCAP (helping locals) and we want to wait until he gets back to see what he wants to do,” to which I replied, “What do you think the surgeon is going to want to do?” They thought about it for a second then prepped me for the OR.

But the medical perspective is not the only perspective. There are other perspectives that need to be considered, like the economy and our liberty, and so we elect people to consider them. See, this is why we are not a technocracy. We are a republic. We normal citizens get the final say in our country’s priorities, and we may not decide that our priorities are exactly the same as Dr. Fauci’s. I, for one, am willing to accept some risk regarding the infection in order to avoid America degenerating into a Road Warrior scenario – unless I can be the Humungous, who really gets a bad rap for his innovative and focused leadership style.

Adults accept risk when balancing various interests. The idea that “It’s not worth one life” is childish and stupid. We have cars. Cars kill 30K people a year. We accept that risk. What’s the proper risk balancing for the Chinese coronavirus? Well, we as citizens need to figure that out. That process is called “politics.” That’s why whenever anyone tells you that “This is no time for politics,” they really mean they don’t want you to have any input into the decision. Without politics, you have a dictatorship, and that seems to be the unspoken theme of a growing number of elected officials and others.

But Americans are not good at being bossed around – well, liberal college grads are, but the rest of us aren’t weak-sauce geebos.

This executive is so screwed up by the virus reaction that he's willing to return stimulus money he got scolded for taking to prevent lay-offs, but says that means he will have to lay people off. But that's better for his business than having his corporate reputation ruined by a few complainers, he says:

[QUOTE]washingtonpost.com/opinions/my-firm-was-attacked-for-taking-a-ppp-loan-so-we-returned-it-now-we-face-layoffs/2020/05/01/0610c636-8bed-11ea-8ac1-bfb250876b7a_story.html


Almost immediately, we were grouped in the media and political discussion with billion-dollar-plus market cap companies with ample access to capital and thousands of employees. This led to concerns from many of our core loyal guests who could not reconcile their view of us as a responsible, and environmentally and culturally respectful, company with the idea of us taking funds from this program.

We now find ourselves in the unenviable position of being approved for a loan that is no longer tenable for us to accept. We have decided to return the loan.

[...]

At this moment, we are not able to qualify for other government loans, and access to capital for a company our size is challenging and costly. So to protect the enterprise given the current state of the business, we have to lay off or furlough employees.

This could not have been the intention of Congress, and our company is almost certainly not alone.

As this crisis unfolds, we urge Congress and the administration to look for ways to help companies such as ours — each one of which employs hundreds of skilled American workers — to gain access to the affordable capital needed to survive.[/QUOTE]


This is completely bizarre.

The only other other explanation besides panic, over-sensitivity and upside-down thinking is he sees a better deal on the horizon, one for which he would not be able to double-dip.

[QUOTE]
“Nancy Pelosi believes abortion is a sacred medical decision,” Carlson said. “It’s a choice that involves a woman and her doctor, and that’s it. Everyone else can shut up and applaud. But on the question of how to treat the coronavirus, Pelosi is happy to judge. After Trump announced his physician gave him a drug called hydroxychloroquine as protection against the virus, Pelosi exploded. This is one medical decision Pelosi does not believe should remain between a patient and a doctor.”

[B][SIZE=2]A Modest Problem [/SIZE][/B]

[I]In response to my piece on the hypocrisy of America’s celebrity class, I have received an emphatic e-mail instructing me to “shut up, and just wear a damn mask.”

I would simply point out that I’m not the only person implicated by this injunction. In particular, I don’t like the idea of my three-year-old having to wear a mask at school, on the grounds that it would prove impractical for him to spend such a long and unbroken period of time each day with his middle finger fully extended.

The more I think about it (and I think about it more and more, looking for good things to say about him) this might be Joe Biden's single greatest contribution to the American Experience.

It's like WC Fields, Jimmy Durante and Yogi Berra all rolled into one unlovable Grumpy Old Man.
