This has gotten beyond stupid!

Post by WB Staff »

The orginal "This has gotten beyond stupid!" thread started out with an opinion on the stay at home order closing fisheries etc. That thread has been moved.

Feel free to continue the convo in a manner that is respectful of differing opinions.

How many have read the governor's actual lock down order? If you have it’s clear that fishing or any other activity not deemed essential outside your home can land you in jail.
Is that really necessary? Or is the dangerous
Virus also being used for a power grab?
How long can this lock down continue before
You loose your mind?
Is this the new normal?
Alcohol sales up 250%.
Domestic violence is climbing
How many known cases are in the state?
Is it all Donald Trumps fault ?

Seriously? You're worried about a government take over during this crisis?

Government take over?
What does that mean exactly?
I am not worried I am certain that the people who want “democratic Socialism”
Will stop at nothing to get it.
Basically the shut down has achieved Much of that goal “Temporarily”
Just look around at the present conditions.
I AGREE that we need the quarantine but that it is just a little bit much.
When the government has put in restrictions
And closed areas of land, parks, forest, waters
They seldom reopen. I know this being half a century old.
I understand this is an entirely different situation
I believe we will recover and things will be as were before. But if you think we do not have people that hate our fishing and rights to go out in the forest you are wrong.
The vast majority of people really would not care if fishing were removed forever. The majority does not fish.
I don’t know if you recall but it only took a few collage students to stop fish planting across CA for years

Well, I lived in a place that is an evil social democracy for half my life and fishing wasn’t outlawed (nor was anybody trying to end it), parks and forrests weren’t closed and fish plantings happened. So I’d say you have nothing to worry about.

Interesting.. free speech? Get the heck outta here! I thought all the logical debates would be on lock down too. Nah, really though. We can all come up with some good ideas as to WhoWhatWhereWhen&Why (The 5W's) but at this point, its honestly not understood. What I do understand is that we need to learn to be specific with regards to rules. There are branches to a tree and branches with branches with branches. Quite literally, the government doesn't trust us to stay at a safe distance, its "droplets". The problem here is that I think our leaders believe its easier to treat them like stupid, instead of being specific right now. I think the Department of Fish and Game could regulate a good number of boat ramps and levee's at least on the cal delta (our biggest chance to make it happen) but they've got their own rules to follow I'm sure. No need to panic though, when we're all cleared of our "governments containment efforts" (we meet somewhere after stupid but before ignorant on their "safety scaleo'meter 2.0" we will get right back to fishing. Yeah, unfortunately, the first one broke because they actually thought it was our decisions but... there is 1 stupid person for every 10 smart people, and that is all that it takes to make things different. So the 2.0 version had a new framework. Be cool, laugh and just relax while we figure this out.
