LA Mayor to Open Beaches—But There's a Catch
PJ Media ^ | May 12, 2020 | Victoria Taft

Posted on 05/12/2020 11:49:38 AM PDT by absalom01

Beaches in Los Angeles will re-open on Wednesday, which will come as good news to surfers, swimmers, joggers and walkers. The indulgence one must pay to Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti for the privilege of walking or jogging on the beach, however, is to follow the edict that the people who own the beaches of California must wear a mask.

“We’ll have to pay a lot of attention to what that means in a county with as many people, with 10 million people,” county health director Barbara Ferrer said at a news conference Monday. “Like, are we able to keep our beaches from getting crowded? Are we able to keep people moving? Are we able to have all of us wear our face coverings when we’re going to and from places where they’re going to be other people?”

Like New York, the LA County hotspots for COVID-19 deaths are in nursing homes. KTLA TV reports 47% of all COVID-19 cases in Los Angeles County are in nursing homes, and half of the cases in the entire state are in nursing homes and probably more. With L.A. County accounting for roughly half of all coronavirus cases and deaths in California, ...

But everyone else on the beaches of Los Angeles must wear a mask while walking or jogging in the relatively fresh air beaches of LA. Inexplicably, Garcetti had no requirements to wear a mask and socially distance while in the water. K

.... To discourage sunbathing, gatherings and picnics, people will not be allowed to lie or sit on the sand, nor will they be able to bring items such as coolers, umbrellas and canopies.

I refuse to go anywhere where I am “advised” to wear a Masque of Red (Chinese) Death. What absolute fascist BS. This country was sold a pig-in-a-poke by the so-called experts and by the worthless as usual politicians. Pathetic weakness is on display.

I’m in Hollywood and put up with the faggy crap. If I survived 8 years of obamatard, then 8 years of Trump is heaven.

Seeing leftards blow brain cells when I say “Trump” makes every day MAGA.

“These Democrat dictators are just stuck on stupid”.

As are their supporters. And the rest of us must try and minimize our suffering for it.

When a 100,000 of them show up on a beach and half are not complying he'll probably just close them again.

They weren't really enforcing the close beach order from what I could tell

Agreed—I am a card carrying “fearper” and masks are just not needed outdoors if there is distancing.

Just checked Webster’s dictionary.

Fearper (Fear-per)

1. n. a person who observes sometimes unpleasant facts, and then applies reason to develop the most pragmatic response to those facts.

2. n. The subject of unearned bile on Free Republic.
