There have been maddening, baffling and idiotic Covid-19 regulations in various parts of the country for the past year, but California’s leaders are leading the nation in causing people to sarcastically yell “SCIENCE!”
Here’s the latest head-scratcher:
NEW: Outdoor dining has reopened in L.A. County as of today, but now the Health Department is banning restaurants from having their TVs turned on for customers. @FOXLA

Directly from the new health order: “Televisions or any other screens that are used to broadcast programming must be removed from the area or turned off. This provision is effective until further notice.”

As usual, there’s counterproductive progressive genius behind the move:
This is @CountyofLA’s way of preventing #SuperBowl watch parties at restaurants. https://t.co/9rAQqT3uKB

It’s obvious the Health Department wants to stop people from watching the Super Bowl outdoors at sports bars/restaurants, so they are now going to force people to watch it indoors with private home gatherings by taking the outdoor option away. Absolutely brilliant ?

“Stupid” must repel the coronavirus, or something.
It's all about control and conformity for the peasants.

And for the state’s public officials, tomorrow presents another opportunity to out-do themselves.
