Are crawfish roadside boil and go’s considered essential? Last time I was there these seemed to be on every corner.

They can't get it through their skulls that the longer they refuse to do this, the longer they will have to do it, resulting in the economy being non-existent longer, and people being out of jobs longer.
Keep being stupid though.

As far as I know it's not happening in other places.
pretty sure most places have stated that you can be fined/jailed for not following the orders
this isn't unique to Shreveport

What statute will be on the citation?
Some of us are constitutionalists who believe in the right to travel and due process.

Judge on TV just explained this, only state legislators can make laws, Governors, mayors, sheriffs, etc. have no power to make arbitrary laws or rules, they are not enforceable. They can only issue guidelines and hope the public follows them. Threats of fines and jail time are just that threats.

They might cite disturbing the peace or La. RS 29:724(E), which says: "In the event of an emergency declared by the governor pursuant to this Chapter, any person or representative of any firm, partnership, or corporation violating any order, rule, or regulation promulgated pursuant to this Chapter, shall be fined not more than five hundred dollars or confined in the parish jail for not more than six months, or both. No executive order, proclamation, or regulation shall create or define a crime or fix penalties."
This is what La. State Police issued early on:
Louisiana State Law (RS 29:724) gives the Governor authority to set restrictions on gatherings and businesses in the interest of public safety and to prevent spread of COVID-19. These proclamations and declarations have the power of law.
As such, local, parish, and state law enforcement agencies as well as other state authorities including ATC and the State Fire Marshal, will be acting to enforce these rules set by the Governor.
Violations of gathering capacity and business hour restrictions may result in revocation of licenses and/or citations for violating the executive order under La. R.S. 29:724(E), Disturbing the Peace, or other appropriate violations of law.

Maybe someone can beat the rap in court, but I wouldn't want to go to jail right now to be the test case.
There is also the bonus of having a mug shot all over the news for being "that guy."
