Social distance they said. OK, we said. But you can only do it at home, they said. You can be out and exercise, they said. But now you can only do it at home, they said. And we’ll fine you (unless you are an illegal alien in the sanctuary jurisdiction of Milwaukee). And, no, I don’t think it’s over the top to call them Fascists
Milwaukee police to issue fines for violators of ‘Safer at Home’ order
The Milwaukee Police Department says it will be issuing fines to violators of the ‘Safer at Home’ order starting May 2.
In a Facebook post, the department said that starting May 2, the Milwaukee Common Council will authorize both the Milwaukee Police Department and the Milwaukee Health Department to issue fines for violations of Gov. Tony Evers’ “Safer at Home” order.
Police are authorized to issue fines of the Milwaukee City Ordinance “Rape or Obstruction of Orders” to any person who intentionally violates or obstructs execution of the order, Milwaukee police say.
The post comes hours after a 1,500-person protest against the order concluded at the Capitol building in Madison. During the rally, Capitol police say they issued no citations and made no arrests.
The next protest should be soon be in Milwaukee, don’t you think? I’d say by Tuesday. To be honest, the folks in Madison weren’t helping by not social distancing.
The Green Bay PD also plans to fine people for exercising their Constitutional Rights.

To get around stay-at-home orders, Spaniards have been walking some unusual ‘pets’
The Spanish government’s strict stay-at-home order allows people to leave their homes to walk their pets.
Well, that order has prompted some to get a little creative with what the government means in terms of “pet.”
On Friday the Spanish National Police tweeted an image of a man getting fined for “walking” a fish in a bowl in Logroño, a town in northern Spain. He was penalized for violating government orders to stay inside due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Agentes de la @policia han sancionado a una persona por salir a "pasear" a sus peces por la calle. Los agentes le avistaron en #Logroño portando una pecera en contra de lo estipulado en el RD del Estado de Alarma.

There were also people walking hens, toy dogs, and a guy walking around in a dinosaur costume. But, again, as long as they were social distancing, what’s the problem?
