Oregon Governor Wants Police To Arrest COVID Order Violators
That sound you just heard was every cop in the State being flatulent in the Governor's general direction.[OregonLive] "For the last eight months I have been asking Oregonians to follow the letter and the spirit of the law and we have not chosen to engage law enforcement," Governor Kate Brown said Friday. "At this point in time, unfortunately, we have no other option." Did the nightly riots in Portland give you a clue? The notion of citing or arresting people at their homes will become another flashpoint in the ongoing culture wars over how to limit the spread of the deadly disease. "We let you off with a warning when you tried to burn down the precinct, but this time it's serious!" "The Oregon State Police will be working with local law enforcement to enforce the Governor’s orders, in the same way local law enforcement officers respond to noise complaints for loud parties, for example, and issue citations," Brown's flack said in an email Saturday. The state police said it wouldn’t have details on its enforcement plans before Monday. Or for that matter, before Hell freezes solid.
