Police in San Diego have started fining people for watching the sunset from the beach amid draconian stay-at-home orders in place for all of California.
At least 25 people were ticketed over the course of the weekend, according to Fox 5.
The citations were slapped on people who “were watching the sunset, having picnics near the beach,” the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department explained.
“Everyone is required to stay home except to get food, care for a relative or friend, get necessary health care, or go to an essential job,” the Sheriff tweeted. “22 people were cited near the beach in Encinitas. Complacency is the enemy. Take social distancing more seriously to stop coronavirus.”

“This is a legally enforceable order issued under California law-Govt. Code section 8665,” the Sheriff threatened in a follow-up tweet. “It’s a crime to violate this order and you may be punished by up to a $1,000 fine or six months behind bars or both for doing so.”

Police in nearby Los Angeles County have begun arresting surfers, with one man’s apprehension recently caught on video.
The lone paddler boarder was hunted down by a lifeguard boat, a Los Angeles County Sheriff patrol vessel, and officers on the beach, and eventually led away in handcuffs, as Infowars reported last week.
"Why the people ignoring social distancing orders just won’t listen. As a few cling to old mottos of patriotism and perseverance in the face of the coronavirus crisis, one expert warns it could be a formula for disaster.”
As a few cling to old mottos of patriotism and perseverance in the face of the coronavirus crisis...
You heard it here first - Patriotism has been deemed passé.
Government is in the last resort the employment of armed men, of policemen, gendarmes, soldiers, prison guards, and hangmen. The essential feature of government is the enforcement of its decrees by beating, killing, and imprisoning. Those who are asking for more government interference are asking ultimately for more compulsion and less freedom.

You heard it here first from Eleanor Cummins - And since she said it, she probably is a liberal – Ya think?
I was mistaken. Gatlin doesn't post from faggot sites.
A man must be big enough to admit his mistakes, smart enough to profit from them, and strong enough to correct them. While those well carefully chosen words were definitely apropos and most important – those regrettably are not my words. I didn’t write them. I only wish I had. Those are words from John Calvin Maxwell – an American author, speaker, and pastor who has written many books, primarily focusing on leadership.
John Maxwell was born in Garden City, Michigan in 1947. He is an evangelical Christian. He followed his father into the ministry. He completed a bachelor's degree at Circleville Bible College in 1969, a Master of Divinity degree at Azusa Pacific University, and a Doctor of Ministry degree at Fuller Theological Seminary. He currently resides in South Florida with his wife, Margaret. He is an ordained minister in the Wesleyan Church. John Maxwell is a man with individual qualities developed to become the kind of leader people want to follow and to emulate. That is truly so in my case. He has demonstrated the rare qualities one needs to have and skills one must develop to become the kind of leader people want to emulate. And it is therefore with some regained respect resulting from your admission in your post here that you inappropriately responded to me, that I say you too can become the kind of leader others want to follow. You need only to learn what is at the heart of every great leader and above all – You must learn to lead from within. I will gladly listen to John Maxwell preach the Gospel at any time and in any place. He in so many ways reminds me of my dearly departed father – one of the wisest men I have ever known and as John Maxwell, also an evangelical preacher man.
I thank you most sincerely, Stone, for your retraction …
And to “ROFL-Her-AO” little miss “Lady Marian” – I say that she who laughs first and thinks they laugh loudest will always lose out to he who laughs last and laughs best – for he will ultimately be the final winner. Remembering that he who laughs last and best will have more glory than someone who was winning in the beginning but ultimately lost to a better [erson.
Think about that – as I am now enjoyably having the last laugh …
I am definitely not a leftist and I have never supported the ACLU. All I ever did with the ACLU is to post some truthful articles by them on your forum. And for posting truth you are unable to accept logically with sensible reasoning – you have since wrongfully continued to brand me a leftist. Your shameful reaction to truth is an allergic reaction for which there is a cure …
