About dam time!
Close the state to non-Marylanders traveling recreationally. It’s long overdue. Stay where you live!
the businesses on his original list will still be able to open. He did not change a thing from what I saw. So nothing has really changed except now he really really means it when he says no parties or BBQ's
Serious times require serious measures.
By the by...Salisbury officials don't think u r off the hook with this national crisis either...lots still need to be clean up in your yards! We won't forget!
Wonder what changed in a week when it was just semantics not to issue the shelter in place order?
That being said, close the damn bridge. Carney should close the Delaware memorial and northrum needs to close the tunnel to everyone except trucks and medical personnel. They can easily isolate the shore and prevent a whole area from exposure.
That sounds mighty excessive.
I believe sun down to sun up NOBODY on the roads
Its a good thing that fat dumb bastard isn't running again. There's going to be a social breakdown in this State & Country directly attributable to this idiot and his comrades in arms. All the rules are on the white social bloc because they're the only ones adhering to them.
The patients are running the asylum. Does he really think people are going to sit in the house with their kids all summer or even until June? He needs some new advisers who are not bleeding heart liberals and dumb as he is.
We're playing with scared money and that never works out. Maybe this will cause a house cleaning in the Md. Legislature which is long overdue.
It sounds like all the businesses that were allowed to stay open after last week's order will still be open now too, including auto sales.
The only thing that changed is now they are testing for the virus. I don't think the cases are new. We now know who has it due to testing
Been saying that for two weeks!!!
Nothing changed? the restaurants are still open for carry out so people will still be on the road, construction sites with more than 10 people are still essential, people will just say the are going to the grocery store....Hogan solved nothing!
So my excuse will be I'm going out to get BREAD #JOKE

CLOSE THE FN BRIDGES
Can't close the bridge becuz that does stop commerce from reaching it's destinations. Grocery, medicines, etc. Until that goes on lockdown (not good practice) bridge needs to stay open.
Good thing I can still go buy a car during all this. Glad the lobbying money is still in full affect.
Wow! What an idiotic and unnecessary dictate to commonsensical citizens of Maryland. And for any state as far as that matters.
We are in a “war”? Having actually been in a real war, risks must be taken to win. Evaluate the circumstances, take recommended precautions to ensure as much risk reduction as possible, but victory will not be obtained and will not occur completely by staying in one’s “foxhole”.
There is a far greater demand for the majority to be out and in the “war arena” if we expect to maintain this Nation,i.e., Delivery personnel, truckers, grocery retail, distribution centers, warehouse, vehicle maintenance and repair, elevator service and maintenance, power companies, medical facilities, petroleum industry in its entirety; I could go on but surely you get the picture. Millions of citizens must and are continuing to respond to the “call of duty”. Leaving and returning to their homes and families daily. Are we going to color code their vehicles in order to monitor essential and nonessential travel? It is a stupid and unenforceable dictate and only lends itself to add to the hysteria and resentment permeating our citizenry.
Your exactly right!
He's done nothing
Shut the bay bridges down except for truckers
This is a joke. Either all or none.
So not only is the order UNCONSTITUTIONAL because of MY 1ST Amendment rights (prevents the government from making laws which regulate an establishment of religion, prohibit the free exercise of religion, or abridge the freedom of speech, the freedom of the press, the right to peaceably assemble, or the right to petition the government for redress of grievances.), but its also UNCONSTITUTIONAL because of MY 8th Amendment rights (The Eighth Amendment (Amendment VIII) of the United States Constitution prohibits the federal government from imposing excessive bail, excessive fines, or cruel and unusual punishments.)
So they've taken away 1st, trying to take away the 2nd, taken away the 4th, taken away the 5th, infringed on the 6th, killed the 8th, ignored the 9th, and have long since buried the 10th.
All or nothing it's got to be
Don't close the bridges. Some are seeking chemotherapy at Hopkins and want to come home each weekend.
I agree with 12:19
That would be different
And emergency personal
Emergency situation..if you don't like it, go to Italy, or New York.
Food /Gas / Medical reasons are still LEGAL , so don't worry !!!!
OMG!!!!! What are we supposed to do?????
Northwest Woodsman: I'm following up on one of my comments on the article dated 03/28 regarding Rhode Island and the restrictions they have imposed on travel and visitors from out of state. A comment from 11:34 suggested that I was writing creative fiction and my opinion was a fantasy. Well, as things are shaking out my comments are proving not to be a fantasy. In a response to 11:34, I wrote the following:
Northwest Woodsman: Ok 11:34, take all the shots you like. They just bounce off as my comments are made from personal experience and observation and you are clearly, entitled to yours. This virus issue is very serious and you can’t convince me that desperate people who run out of sustaining supplies will meekly sit by and experience the effects of starvation and not take drastic action to save themselves, their family and even their pets. Imagine a city like Atlanta or Baltimore having empty shelves in grocery stores because of a breakdown of their delivery system or our medical facilities overwhelmed by masses of seriously ill and dying patients. I’m not predicting this but the reality is that this is a distinctly possible scenario. As an example, an unexpected April snowstorm occurred in Atlanta a few years ago that disrupted re-supply of grocery stores for a period of several days and as a result, there were numerous homicides with customers fighting over remaining items in those stores. Fights have already broken out in stores like Costco where customers have tried to hoard items and leave nothing behind for others. Gun stores around the country have long lines of customers and many have sold out their inventories of firearms and ammunition. I’m a realist as a result of having resided in 13 states, worked in law enforcement in at least five major cities and observed the worst of human nature down at the street level. If your experience has been similar or as varied and not based upon emotion and speculation, I’m willing to consider your thoughts and refute my dire concern regarding the possibility of societal collapse. Your input is highly desirable as I sincerely would like to have my concerns substantially refuted so I can sleep better at night.
Suicides Going Up !!! War of the States !!!
The State can make laws/executive orders during a public health crisis. In a nutshell, the first amendment prohibits Congress from making laws that impede on right to assembly, etc. while the tenth amendment says that states have all other rights not given to the Feds by the Constitution.
Autocratic grandstanding at its best! You go Governor for surely you are full of yourself.
I think our governors would love to be able to impose strict stay at home orders but they can't because our economic/political system can't function as in China. China's ability to tell folks to stay at home was strictly enforced. If you needed groceries, including toilet paper were ordered from a gov website then delivered to your living complex. Our government is simply not capable of that.
FYI in Wuhan you can look up on the internet who in your living complex had been infected and their apt#. Also all economic transactions are done by phone (not even credit card) so that the gov can track where you have been. The gov could track an infected individual's travel and could see who else was on a train with that individual, in order to trace more possible infections.
@7:11 The state can claim it can do whatever it cares to. None of it trumps the Constitution.
So let me get this straight you want the trucks bring you food but the hell with everyone else across the bridge because we are so much better? Get off your high horse. There is no way we are closing then bridge a hole.
What does the sun have to do with it?
