re: Mandatory lockdown - coming soon to us all?

Yep. Next thing these morons will say is we will shut down all the refiners and stop making gas. Imagine the panic if this would happen, it won’t.

Your actually right. I just talked to him. He said he would know about 6 hours before the general public but he's now hearing they will make a national announcement telling people they will need to shelter in place by a certain day.

You and your buddy are fricking morons. If that announcement is to be made it will come from the local level.

Real strong rumor they are going to shut interstate travel down Friday.

Buddy with national guard told me to "buy what you need by Thursday. shite is about to get real."

You showed be banned for even posting this stupid shite when people have already lost their collective minds over a 2 week activities halt. Also go frick yourself.

So if we do this and it slows down for a while what do we do when it picks back up? Do we shut down the country every few months?

---

A two week shutdown is nonsense. It’s going to be 60 days at a minimum.

Also, to the people predicting mass chaos amongst complete martial law, my guess is before it got to that point, the government would probably say “frick it, let’s just go back to normal and let nature take its course”. Lesser of two evils.

ETA- the shutdown I’m referring to, that will happen in other US cities, is non essential businesses; what SF, Spain, France and Italy are doing.

I am not talking about a full scale shutdown including markets and other essential business. That’s not going to happen. It hasn’t happened anywhere.

I hope you're right but would you have thought they would shut every bar and restaurant down for a month?

The national guard is like the jv team of the military. Your buddy don’t know shite.

You start talking about shutting down grocery stores and gas stations for a month,

Will not happen, but it doesn't stop idiots from flooding grocery stores thinking it will.

This statement that is so frequently used over the past two weeks in Covid-19 threads has lost all meaning. It’s already “real”. It’s been “real” for what now feel like an eternity.

If the National Guard came to my house and wrapped it in a big freaking rollmof Saran Wrap, it would fall short of being any “realer” than the events of the past 14 days.

Let’s stop fear mongering and actually wait for the actual announcements that are critical to this situation. Rather than regurgitated rumors from “military buddies” and Facebook.

Where is the poster that knows the “ lady in charge of the life jackets for the State “?
He ought to be able get some inside info from her.
