fozzype Posted April 12, 2020 Posted April 12, 2020 I understand some of what we are trying to do with flattening the curve. I am also not happy with a lot of what is going on and feel it is becoming government overreach in some cases. This is difficult, uncharted waters and I know that officials make mistakes. As always, trying to protect some while impacting many is a tough choice. In Michigan they have closed the lakes and in Arkansas the Buffalo River. I am just now a fan and this seems like they are crossing a line. magicwormman 1 B. Foz

96 CHAMP Posted April 13, 2020 Posted April 13, 2020 Not that I agree with her at all, as I know I have no direct info as to why, so that makes me no judge, yes, I would definitely be upset if it Happened hear as well, but people are their own worst enemy, people these days do what's only in their best interest and needs, most could care less about the other guy, that's society today. curtisce and magicwormman 2
MOBass Posted April 13, 2020 Posted April 13, 2020 Apparently people were congregating at the ramps so instead of dealing with the people that were a problem she decided to shut it all down. This is where people will start saying to heck with it and just go on with life. Give people good direction, a plan for mitigation and turning things back on, and a little hope most will go along with the rules. Lock things down with no plan other than hide until we tell you it is ok to come out and leave them with the choice of be destitute or face a virus, most or going to take their chances. As for the restricted products. They can be purchased on line for curbside pick up, but can not be purchased in store. The thought process is they don't want people wandering around stores. My experience at the ramp Friday, no one was anywhere near us putting in or taking out. Talked to someone about 20 yards away in a pocket. Hopefully this will continue locally and no one gets any bright ideas about closing the lakes. magicwormman 1
magicwormman Posted April 13, 2020 Posted April 13, 2020 I understand that Michigan had a problem with people during the walleye run. 4 and 5 people in a boat and lots of out of state fisherman. It only takes a few to ruin it for the majority! snagged in outlet 3 1
DADAKOTA Posted April 13, 2020 Posted April 13, 2020 A lot of the Michigan fishing seasons have yet to open. All depends on specie and location https://www.michigan.gov/dnr/0,4570,7-350-79119_79146_81200---,00.html
abkeenan Posted April 13, 2020 Posted April 13, 2020 She also banned the sale/purchase of seeds for growing your own plants and vegetables. They were deemed "non-essential" by her and her cohorts. They posed a risk due to the fact that a person buying them has contact with sales associates for a duration of time. When is the last time anyone needed help buying a pack of seeds off the cardboard displays at Home Depot, etc.? She is just full of wonderful ideas. Deadstream 1
