Doing 4 things at a time man....not all of our gigs are as laid back as yours.
Warrantless search? Nah. If you have 30 cars parked on your street and the neighbors called in a complaint, I think there is probable cause to knock on the door and say hello. You don’t need a signed warrant for that.
We don’t ask police to have a signed warrant to knock on the door for noise complaints. Nor do we need to suspend the constitution to deal with it. This isn’t all that different. Just put on a mask and meet your friends outside. Problem solved.
So we're back to asking neighbors to inform on their neighbors? Both LA and NY tried that. Unless its a loud large party, folks for the most part said no thanks. And now the LA DA is apparently going to enforce party complaints when he's not going to enforce petty trespass, petty theft, vagrancy, public urination/intoxication, and resisting arrest? That's not where the gatherings are happening anyway. They are like my neighbors celebrating their 21st birthday having 5-6 bros over and drinking beer all night. An army of Karens informing on people for celebrating thanksgiving....even better.

In our county, LEO's have decided not to fine, punish, whatever - they are taking an "Education approach" to those who go against public health recs. Which really means they are too busy with more dangerous stuff, (true.)
My neighbors got fined for doing a Halloween party in LA County. Dad keeps vacillating between "reasonable, common sense" limitations that rely on the good graces of others and that LA County has tried and failed at, and hard core authoritarian policies he wishes he could do if he could get away with it.
Glad to hear it. How large was the party?
I learned recently that my grandmother recovered from covid, but at a cost of rapidly accelerated dementia. Low oxygen is bad for brains.
No tears from me if someone got a $250 dollar fine for hosting a spreader event. Hope they learned and don't hold another one.
It was a large party complete with fancy Halloween decorations. The neighborhood (the one right next to us) is known for its fancy decorations and Halloween celebrations. But you miss the point (in your usual thick way).....Los Angeles is doing this already and your solution isn't working. These are the parties they can catch (with the large cars and obvious noise). It's not working, which is why you are flirting with going full totalitarianism like our friend EOTL.
Sorry to hear about your grandmother.
Yup. I’ve pretty much got the country bent to my will at this point.
So fun watching youth soccer parents get what they deserve. Idiots went to places like Utah so their kids could play a kiddie sports and encourages others to also spread the covid and, guess what, now 3,000 people a day are dying.
You, sir, are the biggest asshole on the boards. My kid didn't go to Utah because he wanted to play soccer. It's because he was fairly close to a mental breakdown and needed to get out of California's horrible oppressive environment. We would have stayed there permanently through the emergency if medical necessity (and the need to have our neighbors take custody of them) hadn't intervened. My niece wasn't so lucky and wound up trying to kill herself. So shut the fuck up you absolute total piece of human garbage NitF.
Interesting take
20% of MLS players have had COVID. I'd guess a similar proportion in Europe. Enough of a base for us to definitively know if COVID causes any intermediate term problems in the young and healthy. Surprised if no one has studied it to date....... It's also consistent with the estimates for COVID across the country being somewhere in the 20%-30% range.

MLS union: Nearly 20% of players had COVID-19
MLS Players Association says nearly 20% of players contracted COVID-19 in 2020.
Ah, does mocking people only work one way for you? Try not doing it and see what happens. Otherwise shut the fuck up you absolute total piece of human garbage. Too bad about your niece. Too bad about the 300,000 people who have actually died from covid. If you’re gonna engage in your patronizing snark and disregard for human life, believe me I will keep returning the favor. It is the only way to convince people like you to get it together.
And by the way @Grace T., do you want another 16 pages of posts discussing politics and covid-19 before I said a word and you started blaming me for going off topic?
I may attack dad and your alter ego, but only when I've been attack first. And I've never attacked anyone's kid like you inhuman piece of slime
I objected early and often to those posts to dominic, who chose not to do anything about it, not just you.
p.s. if @dad4 were ready to declare an armistice and refrain from the behavior he started when he lost it that one week, I'd be more the happy to sign off on it. But he tasks me. He tasks me and I shall have him.
Gaslighting again?
This is the off-topic thread.

With al due respect, this was a bit too much.
