Second one with NKs was ridiculous. Should have been chicoms for sure. The original is a great movie even still. Also was made before it became in vogue to be ashamed of being american.
Crazy policys in California to remove people from thier homes,WTF??

It was supposed to be chicoms but they more or less blackmailed and threatened the movie studios to not make them the villain so they settled on a completely unrealistic scenario of a 3rd world country crossing the largest ocean in the world to conduct an invasion on the most heavily armed country in the world.

Yep, total redonk. I think the NKs somehow got an AC130 gunship in one of those movies with morgan freeman a few years ago and strafed the white house, right?
Chicoms need to be shut out of this rubbish. I'm waiting for a chinese fighter pilot in their bullshit nonexistent jets to come in save the say in Top Gun II.

To address the initial subject of the thread: No. People will not be forced from their homes. The Health Director later stated that his messaging was inarticulate. For people who need to be in isolation but can not safely do so at home, they will assist in finding alternate accommodations.
This is consistent with messaging from Public Health authorities across the country.

Thanks for heads up.
Ventura County officials were forced Wednesday to apologize and clarify that those who could not isolate or quarantine themselves would never be forcibly removed from their homes as part of an effort to further contain the spread of the coronavirus.
Video circulated on social media showed Dr. Robert Levin, the director of Ventura County Public Health, speaking before the board of supervisors Tuesday about a plan to hire up to 50 new “contact tracing investigators” to “find people who have COVID-19 and immediately isolate them, find every one of their contacts, make sure they stay quarantined and check in with them every day.”
Levin admitted his poor messaging during another press conference Wednesday, stressing those who test positive or who are identified by officials as having come in contact with an infected person would not be forcibly removed from their homes.
“I either misspoke or it was misinterpreted – I’ll take the blame of having misspoke,” Levin said.
Mis-spoke? WTF?? What the hell is wrong with these people? You just start talking out of your ass ?

Regardless if I believe him or not, I give him mass kudos for stepping up and owning the gaffe and correcting his error.

Yeah he was going to lose his job, babbling on about forced evacuations , and basically suspension of the constitution.

The Monroe County Health Director has indicted that they are contracting with various hotels in the Rochester region to provide housing for COVID patients who need to be isolated but can not do so safely at home.
Not trying to sway your opinion one way or another. Just providing a data point.
And I definitely agree with you re: this guy owning his mistake.

That's one hell of a stretch from aiding those who cant afford it to tracking everyone you come in contact with , monitoring them daily, and take them out their homes by force. He can own it all he wants, He should lose his job , where the hell does he get off making those outrageous claims scaring the shit out of the public and say he mis- spoke. This is a collage educated man, WTF was he thinking?

Note that I'm not defending this guy in particular.
Being college educated does not make one a good public speaker. Clearly this guy was not.

As I said in the other thread we need to start the change now. We need to unite, the time for bickering amongst ourselves is over. People of Michigan have shown us the way. We need to show them no more. They work for us we don't work for them. We are not serfs we are their masters.

I know, I don't think he should be patted on the back for admitting he scared the shit out of a lot of people.
Right, but as a Collage educated Dr. He should have known better. As opposed to some hoodlum talking out of his ass. Informing the public of facts, he should have had some. Its no excuse for what he said. He was there to present the facts to the public as he knew them , He didnt. (we hope) What he did do is strike fear in people. why he did it , is irrelevant.
I just pissed off , that this guy can claim ignorance and go about this day.

So, testing suggests there are several million infected in the country (most are asymptomatic).
Do the contact tracing for them and you've probably identified 3/4 of the people in the country.
What's the point ?

And in COMPLETELY unrelated News, The United States Coast Guard can track disabled (or not) boats through the vessel owners GPS location on their collective smart phones.

So there is that.
