Some officials are enjoying their new power

What's interesting is that Brownsville has an enormous Mexican population, and Mexicans have like 8 million kids.

That's the truth - you never see a Mexican woman out and about without at least 4 small children with her.

So what are these people supposed to do with their brood while they go to the grocery store?

It's annoying how stupid and out of touch our elected officials are.
Guess they will have to get it delivered.

Larry Hogan has been a wonderful friend to his democratic base.

He's been a wonderful friend to his cronies and big donors, too. In fact, that's pretty much all he gives a chit about. No doubt they are getting the lion's share of the money earmarked to get us through this.

I can't wait until that MFer is out of office.

That would depend on where you live now, wouldnt it?

It's unfortunate that so many people have no idea how others live. They think everyone is them. "Get a sitter." "Have your husband watch the kids." "Leave them with a neighbor." In many instances none of those things are possible.

Let them eat cake!

We do love our dictators in this country.

You know the historical context for a dictator?
It was a rare occurrence in the Roman Republic (the government they had before there were emperors). Normally they were rule by two consuls and a whole slew of other government officials - and the Roman Senate, which consisted very largely of just about anyone who'd ever had a high position in the Roman government.

But in the case of extreme emergency - it allowed them to appoint a dictator who was granted all authority to address the situation. Say, the Celts were pouring down the peninsula and they needed quick action.

The position was to be occupied for as long as the emergency existed - or six months.
Whichever came FIRST.

It only came to mean authoritarian despot when Sulla tossed out the time limit - and later when Caesar appointed himself dictator for life.
Not the best circumstances.

Goes to one of my yet uncodified into a pithy statement life axioms - it's always different when it's YOUR ox that gets gored.
Everyone else's problems always are easy to solve - but not yours.

Until people start getting arrested and CPS takes away their children for neglect or abuse ...

:sshrug: Empathy was never my strong suit.

Nor mine, to be perfectly honest, but I do have a head for practical matters.

I feel like these people lay awake at night dreaming up new ways to flex their power and subjugate their citizens. This is the opportunity many of them have been waiting for and our descendants will be reading about them in the history books, depending on who wins this war.

Guessing many many illegals, laws don't apply to them anyway, so what's the problem for them?

Well that's not really what we're talking about. This low level fascist has decreed that NO children be allowed to accompany their parents to the grocery store or anywhere else.
If I may be serious for a moment. Small children have THE WORST personal hygiene, their immune systems are also not mature.
They put themselves and others at risk. I would also say that people often leave their spawn to play with the shopping cart or run around the aisle.
On a good day they are a hazard.
Also, stores are now going to one way aisles. I've recently seen couples stand in front of something, blocking the aisle while they consult on the shopping list. STAY 6 FEET AWAY FROM US!!!!

THEN GET THE FlUCK OUT OF MY WAY or I;ll put my boot up your collective arse.

It's getting ridiculous, like that idiot that sent his Town Clowns out to give tickets to people sitting in their cars in the Church lot.

We've got warm weather on the way and people want to play ball, and get out on their jet ski's and boats.
This BS has to stop soon. It's getting crazy.
