If you don't place law enforcement on all access roads into the state, how do you enforce it for drivers?

Would an out of state plate catch a lawman's eye?

I’m wondering. Remember H1-N1? Mass hysteria? Stock Market going crazy? Who’s going to make money? Who’s pushing the most hysteria?

I work in a gov't office in a secret underground undisclosed location, as they say.  No, really.  We received a briefing from an epidemiologist in Washington State.  He said that if you put someone in

Yes. But the enforcement would be way to manpower intensive.  1 north/south interstate would take about 24 cops 24/7.  (90% of my friends are cops)

Does anyone have a concern for what’s constitutional anymore or did we convert those documents into toilet paper when we ran out three months ago? There is no way to ban and then enforce interstate travel. And we should all be grateful for that regardless of whether it would help or not (it wouldn’t). Slippery slope some of you guys are happy to ride down, I guess.

 

“It’s all temporary” until you realize the mob and power-drunk politicians won’t live by these rules anyway, and won’t give you an inch back no matter what happens with the virus. 
 

Worrying about the few restaurants still in business and holiday interstate travel is pretty stupid in light of what’s actually happening.

Wasn't Texas one of the states bragging no need to shut down anything? 

Yeah your right, along with Florida, Georgia, and Arizona.  Those governors were under political pressure but should have grown some gonads and did right by the people.  I think we should start a new movement, "DEFUND THE POLIticians".

As true as that maybe each person can and should protect themselves. My local diner I've done the 'old fart' coffee thing with for about 20 years is kind of miffed with me right now as I will not dine in. I told him when it's gone or I have a vacine, I'll be back.

I agree until you got to masks. How is that antisocial again? Other than protect you from me how does that piece of cloth hurt you? But yea, people are sort of off the rails to talk to. Ticky Tac.

Last night again on twitch, LA protest a good 10+k in people standing about 3 inches apart screaming and chanting at the top of their lungs and at best maybe 1/3rd wearing mask, another 1/3rd wearing chin mask's and the rest without anything. I'm sure the numbers on Monday for this media will be because of the holiday weekend and everything shut down. Oh well the more we continue to not state the obvious and why we are the only country pushing these kind of numbers, we will continue to fall behind with getting a handle on it. What are the plans of those protesting after the protesting is done and there are no more businesses or job's left from their destruction?

Our local Houston news reported one the reasons in uptick in hospitalization is delayed procedures because of the lockdown. Some of those people unknowingly to them had COVID with no symptoms. Of course that doesn’t fit into the pre November narrative. So it’s not being reported.

Totally agree.  Some wear masks, some don't.  No masks in a California city will make your wallet 300 bucks lighter.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      New tires are on, Cooper Discoverer Road+Trail AT's in 235/75/15. $100 per tire, after $10 AAA discount. Plus install ($100), disposal fees, and taxes.   The new tires ride nice. Catch 22, new tires, I love it again! But I feel like I've been through the wringer with this rig, and maybe I don't need this kind of headache right now. Wait until tomorrow, I'll probably love it again and keep it another week.   Never a dull moment: Got a CEL driving to the tire shop, P0172 bank 1 too rich. Oh lordy, really? I've been enjoying an emoji-free dash for too long, apparently. I popped the hood at the shop and I think there was a vacuum leak very close to the intake. Cleared the code and put a bunch of miles on it going home, code never returned. My fix was zip-tying the line on the vacuum reserve ball because the hose won't stay seated. It's either that or the fuel pressure regulator has an issue again or an injector is leaking. See why I'm getting tired of this one?!   In the gas price thread I recorded 19mpg on the last tank in fairly mixed driving and some higher-speed highway (70). I also don't have the lower engine shield installed right now, and that would help with diverting a lot of wind underneath the truck.   Not too long ago, a green '96 4-door 4x4 came up for sale with less than 1,000 actual miles. There was a story there but it was real, and the place wanted like $25k for it. Would be fun to have a NICE example of one of these, but not too nice. The joy is driving them.   That's it for a while...family and social stuff all weekend, no time to play with my Hot Wheels in the garage for the next couple of days.

      $5.19 after Kroger discount for 87 today. Moses!   Somehow I've already put 560 miles on the Blazer with the last tank clocking 19mpg.

      Oil dipstick

      By Stu Katz · Posted

      I have a 91 GMC SIERRA 1500 4.3 liter. My dipstick broke. Can someone tell me how long is the oil dipstick. Local Part stores do not stock the oil dipstick. If someone can tell me the length. I can match up an aftermarket one. Thank you.

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Assembling a Word Puzzle   A sentence in a famous sermon says:    “Happy are those conscious of their spiritual need, since the Kingdom of the heavens belongs to them".   Forget it was a sermon and forget its religious nature. Assemble the puzzle. What did he say? I'm only going to unravel the part underlined.... Keep it simple and out of the ditch. It's a word puzzle not a religious class. I'm not writing a book. Okay..   By saying that people conscious of that stated need will receive; the implication is that there are also people that are not conscious and thus deprived.   But this one sentence also says that ALL people have this need, not just the ones aware of it.   NEED will try to lead you to satisfying it. You're thirsty, you seek water. You're hungry, you seek nourishment. You're cold, you find cover. Lack of awareness is a choice. So when he says "conscious' he isn't saying simply aware but aware and active in satisfying that need.    That's allot of information for eight words. This man knew how to craft a sentence...   Give that some thought the next time you read an advertisement or a book.

      Gas fill door

      My gas fill door does not stay closed. Not sure what happened, but it works its way to about a inch open every trip. Need a fix to this. 2020 Silverado 1500.
