The fights and lines at the liquor stores will be epic in the coming days.

Any bets if all alcohol sales (grocery beer and wine) will be banned?

Also, if a medical system is saying there are no masks available, they arent trying
If I can buy them with a company visa card, they can too.
literally thousands of them available. type in PAPR to ebay, google shopping, grainger, etc etc etc.
They just dont want to spend the money on them.

ServPRO can get their janitors PPE but the hospitals cant? Thats BS.
Even they get it- PAPR masks.

**** no, they are doing curbside pickup around here. you call ahead- pay over the phone, and they come load your booze for you.
I got 2 extra boxes of wine, just in case.

Well you left out the part where I said, "I'm guessing they're state related..." You work for the leftist media???

But I'll stand by my guess. NG units have been activated in states, and Trump doesn't have the power to do it.

State, not Fed directed.

Already done in some states, and the NG is under the Governor's control

The densely populated areas are the problem, and most are restricted now.

Trump doesn't have the power to declare martial law and activate the NG? How so?

I mean i know if nationalized they cannot act as a police force, but they can still act. Just not make arrests. They can shut down roads, stop people, work with local LE (brigade homeland even has active duty military doing that).

You are at big risk if you smoke dope with this disease. Better get a good brownie recipe.

You might want to email the Washington Examiner and tell them they fell for a fake tweet...


Here is one article of 100s explaining how the Stafford Act does not give the president the power to do a quarantine, and it's just a fake tweet going around. https://www.statesman.com/zz/news/2...to-order-national-mandatory-2-week-quarantine

Yes that's what I said originally in my post above. I believe all these rumors about shut downs are just stated related which is happening. I doubt we will see any attempt at a national quarantine since the federal government doesn't have the power to do it.

Have you ever seen the NG in action shutting an area down?

A minor inconvenience if you know the area or have county maps. BTDT
