Do You See Violations Of The Governor's Suspension Of Rentals?

I'll be there on business next week. Staying at a friend's place. Don't call the police for the smell of marijuana coming from the house; it's medical.

I think I know them. What's the address again? 😀

I’ve met homeowners that kept renting to tourists through VRBO and have since stopped. I also know people that are letting family and friends from out of state, stay in their homes. In my humble opinion... locals know locals! It’s a small town.

On a side note: my beautiful wife was walking through WalMart wearing a mask and gloves and an elderly man ( not gentleman ) said to her, “ you must be a democratic “.... we both have no party affiliation and continue to be surprised at the lack of understanding and empathy people have.

The meanness of this red area is almost too much to bear. Couple that with willful shedding of science, reason and logic and it makes me very concerned for tomorrow.

Serious question - where in America is an area with warm weather that isn't so red?

The virus doesn't know or care about party or politics.

Really appreciate the care Publix has put into safety precautions. All staff wear masks. Arrows to direct you throughout the store which are great in the little Watercolor Publix. And clear partitions at checkout (these need to cover more area but still a good thing). Half of the shoppers are wearing masks. Lots of visitors with no masks and not a care in the world. No one has ever said anything about my mask. And i do it for our wonderful Publix staff and everyone else.. I don't shop at Walmart but I know friends who do and they are wearing masks. We can only do our best.

Hi Teresa,
I’m am someone that wears a mask or neck gator in public and have two family members that have Covid-19. They live out of state and I haven’t been in close physical contact but I take this virus seriously.
I’m grateful to the employees of our super markets for literally risking their lives for a paycheck. In other cities and towns, the super markets have curbside service ( which I feel is safer ). I am not a fan of WalMart for my own reasons but I will never try to control my beautiful wife, lol!
Yesterday I went to FWB and only encountered ONE person wearing a mask. I even gave a drunk man $10 for lunch just to try and get him to stop trying to shake my hand! He was wondering around asking for money and I know that many of us have lost jobs including myself ( I haven’t worked in two months). My heart goes out to everyone. I believe in country over party. However, I’m in disbelief as to the distain people have toward each other because of political party. Please stay safe

Was in a Publix last night and noticed this exact thing. Many not respecting distancing, no masks, and ignoring aisle markings.

Hello Dawn,
I’m more than fortunate to have wonderful friends of different political parties. I’m an independent and have issues with both parties at times. I love this beautiful town but there is definitely a huge rift with people being terribly judgmental whether it be political or religious.... I sure do my best to be polite and at times very quiet, lol! The older I get, I wish I could be more myself in public but I still choose not too. Please be safe

I go the the SRB Publix ( even though I like Fresh Market ) not many people wear masks. I would guess about 25% do?

In Gainesville you can't enter Publix without a mask.

Hawaii.

Ooh I like that idea. Got to find a town like Grayton used to be though.

But what if the "illegal activity" isn't in fact illegal? An executive order by a governor may be in conflict with Federal Law or the constitution. See amendment 4 of the U.S. Constitution.

Florida has long been a disaster-prone state and the laws covering restricting movements of people within it during a disaster declaration have been well-vetted. I can remember full lockdowns in the days immediately after a hurricane followed by weeks of disk to dawn curfews including s few times we were kind of racing back home because we'd gone out a bit far and we were trying to get home before curfew.

Heck, Hurricane Michael was less than two years ago and there were parts of Panama City closed to non-residents altogether for more than a month in the name of public safety.

And trying to control disease outbreaks is nothing new here either. Go back 150 years and a little to the east and...

I think a lot of people are not aware that a governor's authority in issuing executive orders is limited and many governors seem to think they have the power of dictators.
