Here comes the Federal Quarantines....


(CNN)President Donald Trump said Saturday that he's considering a short-term quarantine of New York state, and surrounding areas, as cases of coronavirus continue to rise.

"We're thinking about certain things. Some people would like to see New York quarantined because it's a hotspot. ... We might not have to do it, but there's a possibility that sometime today we'll do a quarantine, short-term, two weeks on New York. Probably New Jersey, certain parts of Connecticut," he told reporters as he departed the White House.

You may not have noticed, but we are under a state of emergency at present time.

Don't like it, call your leader Pelosi and ask her to start impeachment proceedings again.

Are there any dims saying "We can't keep America closed" ? honest question, idk . Trump keeps saying it but then get's hammered by the media . Everyone at high risk of dying from this should stay at home along with everyone that promotes panic. Everyone else should be able to continue as our Constitution insists . IMHO , I'm out

I just visited their website, and the only **** they care about is stopping arrests so prisoners don't get exposed to Corona in jail. It's like they don't give two ****s about the constitutional rights to movement and assembly. It's not even on the ACLU's radar.

As health and medical experts have said, all local law enforcement should be taking whatever steps they can to reduce the number of people that they arrest and put into jail during this public health crisis. Senior staff attorney Carl Takei explains why.
