    Look around at what is happening ... full quarantine is happening this week

    Inslee and the other governor’s aren’t shutting things down without knowing it is coming

    Vegas also isn’t shutting shit down unless they have to

    MGM already has and the most profitable Indian Gaming casino in northern CA also just shut down.

    Has anyone else heard this rumor from friends who supposedly have contact with military personnel that the Pres. is going to invoke the Stafford Act to quarantine the entire country for some period of time?

    Any legs to this thing?

    Sounds like that was some major fake news. He would play right into the hands of the nanny-state loving democrats. We are already well beyond any point we should have been and the democrats are circle jerking the fuck out of each other to see who can outdo the other with lock downs.
    Yeah, the question wasn't meant to generate yet another fake news, rats, conspiracy deep state thread. At this point, if Krisvashon herself had the right answer to this problem, I'd be all ears.

    For now, I just want to get some intel, if there's any to be gotten, on what might be coming. I want to get a sense if there's any real possibility of me having to do something uncomfortable to deal with my kids 3,000 miles away from here. The politics is a secondary issue at this point, unless you or someone can show me that this is all a liberal hoax.

    If you want them home with you, get them on a plane very soon. I have family who were told by high ranking intelligence officials to get out of Hawaii unless they were prepared to be there for a while.

    I don't know on what legal basis, but I have heard full quarantine. What I heard was so crazy I couldn't believe it. 14 day house bound quarantine; after that 4 weeks only allowed out for 1 hour a day.

    I don't know how they would enforce it as a practical matter.


    Stores were getting pretty fucking bare tonight. The checker was certain things were going to be berserk tomorrow after "an announcement". Bellevue QFC


    Tomorrow I'm buying the best home protection one can buy. God bless the 2A. Also packing a bug-out bag.
    No waiting period? What took you so long? I've been getting armed and loaded for about 15 years now.

    I don't even want to get into the politics debate of all of this. This is so fucking crazy. Outside of 9/11, weirdest shit I've lived through.

    And yet you're one of the most partisan, liberal hacks on this site. Why the sudden change in tone? Did you finally realize this is team fucking America?

    Early to mid-April all this will go away and everything will be heading back to normal, albeit with a stock market that has temporarily crashed and some helicopter money for the masses. We aren’t going to run out of food and it’s not going to continue through the summer.

    Will be a wild next couple of weeks though mainly due to the fact that life won’t be normal with kids at home and a ton of people working from home and not eating out/etc. Feel worst for the waiters/waitresses...they will be hardest hit.
    Agree but could see this lasting into May. We have just begun the testing phase and the media will panic us into hiding as the infection numbers go up, up, up.

    Thought about that. I'm not sure they're better off here. There's a guy in my neighborhood who's in ICU with this thing. They're both in smaller town settings where things haven't really hit.

    I'm also not sure putting them on a plane is what I want to do either. If this thing were to extend into the summer, I'd drive to go them if need be.

    Yeah, 9/11 was bad, but this is way worse IMO.

    I think we’ll all get through this, but I’m pretty appalled at how people have reacted...and I include myself.

    Silver lining is I think we all are identifying where the holes are in our boats and can hopefully plug them up.
    You said plug the holes.
