@stumpknocker it actually does concern me. Look on jail view and see what some of the charges are and research how long most stay in jail. I did not say just let them go without any charges. If they do not appear then they can come to jail and sit. Then it will still concern me and my profession.

First of all, I want to thank all of the medical people for what they are doing. As a former retired LEO, she is right. During times like this we do try and do notice to appears. The worst thing you could do right now is fill up the jails. Thank you for your service.

@ ER RN why don’t to you take your case to the offenders and tell them to just stop what they are doing. You’d be the first one to complain if the matter at hand concerned you in any way.

I appreciate Morgan saying that. It is ridiculous to expect their department to stop every vehicle checking to ask where they are going. I would much rather they do their normal patrol and take calls for theft, assaults and everything in between.

If you feel the need to voice your feelings then I would suggest County Commissioner Underhill. Have you not seen him on the news wanting to open local restaurants and the beach? THAT needs to be openly criticized!

Sam is correct. Use a LITTLE common sense in this. Stay home unless you really need to go somewhere. This is all Morgan is saying. He’s not bound to arrest ANYONE for just being out. He can’t! It’s not martial law folks, it’s a request/order from the governor to stay home unless it’s essential for you to be out. Limit contact with others and wash your damned hands. Why is it so hard for this to be understood. Sheriff Morgan isn’t doing anything wrong(other than breathing if you ask some folks) It’s not a political agenda at all. Support your law enforcement guys and first responders who are out there in this crap. They’re the ones coming in contact with folks every day and the first to get exposed to this nasty virus. If you can do a better job than Sheriff Morgan can do, run for the office and prove it. You might just be surprised at how POORLY you’d do under even the best circumstances.

This what nothing but a pathetic attempt by a pathetic governor to keep the public off his case. I am not a fan of our sheriff but what he said is the truth. If you look at the essential services list, practically every business fits into one of those categories in some shape or form. Therefore just about everyone has an excuse to be out and about. And let’s give a huge hand to Mr. Underhill. You have to stand in awe of the stupidity on display from that one. If you want to reopen our beaches, you should make sure that you’re down there mingling with the crowds every day.
