That's easy, their 1st Amendment right to freedom of the press trump your 1st Amendment rights of freedom of religion and the right to "peacefully gather".

Inmates committing crimes after coronavirus release ‘unconscionable’: de Blasio

It is “unconscionable” that Rikers Island inmates who were released due to coronavirus concerns are committing new crimes, Mayor Bill de Blasio said Monday.

“I think it’s unconscionable just on a human level that folks were shown mercy and this is what some of them have done,” the mayor said during his morning briefing Monday, which came on the heels of a Post report outlining the issue.

I’d call DeBlasio an idiot but that’s an insult to idiots. Damn.

Is this guy serious?

The problem with every single leftist who dreams of utopia is spelled out right there. He or she simply has no concept or relationship whatsoever with the human condition.

You can fix it, but killing these idiots is still illegal unfortunately.

Apologies if I missed this post. Dan Crenshaw hands Bill Maher his ass on Trump reacting to the virus.

GA Gov. Brian Kemp is reopening sectors of the economy beginning Friday

Woo Hoo! I am getting a bit shaggy and craving Guac from my favorite place for a while now

I'm glad that some governors are showing some common sense and starting to open things. Just saw that Tennessee's governor will not extend his stay home order past April 30.

Excellent. Hopefully this is the beginning of the dominoes as the states start opening up.

USC-LA County: Antibody Testing Suggests 4% Of LA County Has Had The Virus

Earlier this month researchers from the University of Southern California’s Keck School of Medicine set up drive-thru testing sites in six locations around LA County. The researchers used a proprietary database they say is “representative” of the entire county and gave people an antibody test.

Based on results of the first round of testing, the research team estimates that approximately 4.1% of the county’s adult population has antibody to the virus. Adjusting this estimate for statistical margin of error implies about 2.8% to 5.6% of the county’s adult population has antibody to the virus- which translates to approximately 221,000 to 442,000 adults in the county who have had the infection. That estimate is 28 to 55 times higher than the 7,994 confirmed cases of COVID-19 reported to the county by the time of the study in early April.

TN Gov. Lee: ‘Safer at Home’ order to expire April 30, phased reopening to begin next week

https://www.wjhl.com/local-cor...-to-expire-april-30/

Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee has announced that his “Safer at Home” order will expire on April 30.

The governor said the vast majority of businesses in 89 counties will be allowed to reopen on May 1, but his administration will work with Sullivan, Shelby, Madison, Davidson, Hamilton, and Knox counties as they plan their own reopening strategies.

“Our Economic Recovery Group is working with industry leaders around the clock so that some businesses can open as soon as Monday, April 27,” said Gov. Lee in a news release. “These businesses will open according to specific guidance that we will provide in accordance with state and national experts in both medicine and business.”

“While I am not extending the safer at home order past the end of April, we are working directly with our major metropolitan areas to ensure they are in a position to reopen as soon and safely as possible,” Lee said. “Social distancing works, and as we open up our economy it will be more important than ever that we keep social distancing as lives and livelihoods depend on it.”

What I'm getting from that is that these lockdowns are utterly pointless at this point.

But don't take my word for it.

Swedish expert: why lockdowns are the wrong policy

That was one of the more extraordinary interviews we have done here at UnHerd.



Link to original video: https://youtu.be/bfN2JWifLCY

Professor Johan Giesecke, one of the world’s most senior epidemiologists, advisor to the Swedish Government (he hired Anders Tegnell who is currently directing Swedish strategy), the first Chief Scientist of the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control, and an advisor to the director general of the WHO, lays out with typically Swedish bluntness why he thinks:

UK policy on lockdown and other European countries are not evidence-based

The correct policy is to protect the old and the frail only

This will eventually lead to herd immunity as a “by-product”

The initial UK response, before the “180 degree U-turn”, was better

The Imperial College paper was “not very good” and he has never seen an unpublished paper have so much policy impact

The paper was very much too pessimistic

Any such models are a dubious basis for public policy anyway

The flattening of the curve is due to the most vulnerable dying first as much as the lockdown

The results will eventually be similar for all countriesCovid-19 is a “mild disease” and similar to the flu, and it was the novelty of the disease that scared people.

The actual fatality rate of Covid-19 is the region of 0.1%

At least 50% of the population of both the UK and Sweden will be shown to have already had the disease when mass antibody testing becomes available

What the ever livin' Hell did you think would happen? You take people out of an environment where they get three hots and a cot, medical care, and hours for exercise, and place them on the streets in an environment where all businesses are closed so they aren't hiring, no money and limited, if any, access to the SNaP food program, not signed up for Medicaid, and with no money to get a place to live, and you're surprised they commit crimes? What a maroon!

Well yeah, if that’s not until 2022 at current pace.

That sound? That's millions of leftist heads exploding. Dang, gonna make one hell of a mess.

Damn.

Ooh, some caravanners are going to have a looong wait in Mexico, yes indeedy.
