As a career LEO I’m getting a kick out of these regular people In regular jobs that are suddenly deemed “essential” who are raising hell and pissed off about having to work, the way they’re “getting screwed” on their time and pay and how the management and government  doesn’t appreciate what they’re doing

Welcome to our world every day

I see the other side of it.  Makes you realize how many people are truly essential to society.

The complaining is amusing though.

Yeah my wife complained that all the open places are not essential.  But what I have seen in Illinois they sre.
Like power line workers putting up a new pole
in front of my work and fast food places.  You need
one to help the other.  Here in Illinois bars and sit
down restaurants are closed.  But you can do take
out all day long.  Auto parts stores.  It really is all connected. I sell industrial material handling
parts.  Next week I start a two week stint as home.
8 hours a day on the computer.

Your concern has been noted.  

The Supreme Court hasn't weighed in yet so it's your opinion only...and your opinion doesn't carry any weight unlike SC decisions.  However, there is precedent already in past SC decisions and the SC has pretty consistently decided restrictions are constitutional as long as they are limited and for a specific reason.  A reason like....you know....public health.  

Personally, I think the SC would rule stay at home orders acceptable as long as they are limited and for a specific reason but I don't know for certain.  

If you are that concerned about it, you should put your money where your concern is and file a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of them.  When are you going to file the legal paperwork?

Bravo, good sir. "Safety" is the new power move.

Imagine fining people for just living, because they are "nonessential" and then sleeping at night, knowing you cause fear among the public.

Wasting your time. Our rights are suspended, the virus is loose. Must contain at all cost, including the BoR.

I am really shocked so many here are cool with this continued encroachment by Governors and law enforcement.

Also notice in this thread to walk in the opposite direction of a group, you are shouted down, called names. Nice to see we don't allow difference of opinion.

I have always had respect for the folks working jobs like LEO, EMS, and nursing, especially during Christmas, etc. It's work I could not do.

That said, I always thought nurses waved their flag a little too hard.

If we gave a fuck about “regular people” (let’s call them civilians shall we?) opinions on this particular topic, the OP would have posted this particular topic in GD. The OP  didn’t because we don’t give a fuck about you civilians’ opinions on this particular topic.  That’s why this is the BOTS forum with specific rules. Read and follow them.
