I also feel like LE and the system as a whole, does a good job of not infringing on people’s rights. However, something we take as solid legal foundation can be found constitutionally flawed way down the road. I’ve been locking people up for drug possession for 16 years, the law itself being twice that old, and it was just declared unconstitutional in my state. I operated in good faith, but the law itself was flawed.
It's not the law that was flawed, it's the system. Drug use and possession used to be a crime and now isn't because of the liberals higher in the system, not the law.

Regular folks look at the riots and the burning. Those jokers should all be locked up to protect society and it seems all le does is provide a target and protect the mob if someone does anything to stop the mob.

The system is causing this.

Then find a good lawyer and take him to court...if what you say is true about the courts support, it should be an easy win.

That’s my point. He’s already been sued snd lost. Courts ruled that the IL gov does not have unlimited emergency powers yet most people thing we are still under EO but we aren’t snd they aren’t constitutional.

People are sheep. If someone puts up a sign that looks official then most people will just voluntarily comply regardless if it’s legal or not.

It really was the law in this case. The legislature neglected to incorporate common law language into the statute when it was drafted in the 70s. No one ever appealed based on the lack of language requiring the state to prove the defendant knowingly possessed the drugs. 49 states had already incorporated the language, one didn’t and just lost in court. Now the counties are vacating any conviction under the law....ever.

Vandy, do you remember The incident here in California many months ago when Nancy Pelosi scheduled a hair appointment at a salon that was doing limited openings?

Yes Pelosi required the shut down but then broke her own rule and was caught on video. Pelosi had some lame excuse for her hypocrisy of course, and no lame stream media held her accountable.

The worst part Of the story is that the small business owner got so many death threats from Liberal Progressives that she lost everything, had to shut her business down and move out of state.

THIS^ is the liberal Progressive Democrats.... but they say Conservatives are bad? Yeah right?!

And now even more counties get moved back.. plus 11 counties that look to have 2 weeks before they get moved to worst level possible for our state. This is with almost 25% of Oregonians fully vaccinated and another 13% with at least one shot. I don't see us getting back to normal anytime soon. They just dont want us to.

Well, when y’all are out rioting all the time, no wonder they want you to stay home!

Then there's some actual science, but it doesn't agree with the narrative so gov't has to ignore it.
Stanford Study

The lockdowners are now dealing with the huge problem of Texas. It has been fully open with no restrictions for 6 weeks. Cases and deaths fell dramatically in the same period. Fauci has no answer. Or compare closed California with open Florida: similar death rates. We have a full range of experiences in the US that allow comparisons between open and closed and disease outcomes. There is no relationship.

Or you could look to Taiwan, which had no stringencies governing its 23.5 million people. Deaths from Covid-19 thus far: 11. Sweden, which stayed open, performed better than most of Europe.

The problem is that the presence or absence of lockdowns in the face of the virus seem completely uncorrelated with any disease trajectory. AIER has assembled 33 case studies from all over the world showing this to be true.

Why should any of this matter? Because the “scientists” who recommended lockdowns had posited very precisely and pointedly that they had found the way to control the virus and minimized negative outcomes. We know for sure that the lockdowns imposed astonishing collateral damage. What we do not see is any relationship between lockdowns and disease outcomes.

This is devastating because the scientists who pushed lockdowns had made specific and falsifiable predictions. This was probably their biggest mistake. In doing so, they set up a test of their theory. Their theory failed. This is the sort of moment that causes a collapse of a scientific paradigm, as explained by Thomas Kuhn in The Structure of Scientific Revolutions (1962).
