These protests and protesters may be dumb, but let's not pretend these kind of improvised Calvinball quarantine "laws" don't raise all kinds of serious-ass civil liberties issues
An obedient public following orders to stay home might end this national emergency faster, but at some point it will just hasten more "national emergencies"
I mean, you might not like it, but "the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances" is right there in black and white, and you better have a pretty goddamn specific and time limited reason for restricting it.
and "the protest might result in spread of a deadly virus" is now an all-purpose reason for shutting down *any* protest, today, next month, next year.
Amazing how this virus has liberated every statehouse and city hall deadwood to let their Barney Fife freak flag fly
