In Florida, it was spring breakers , what's California's excuse?

The pic in this story from East Boca Raton and the boaters are at Lake Boca Raton which is about 300+ yards from my house. I walk over that bridge almost every day in the morning. The intercostal and that small lake area are not under the jurisdiction of the Boca Police (its a state thing) so they can't do anything to stop the idiots. But they called on the Governor and its stopped now.
They don't have spring break in California?

Actually, as long as you maintain your distance, going to the beach is no more a danger than walking your dog, and far less dangerous than going to the grocery store and getting takeout (considering all the hands involved). All three things that are allowed under a lock down. 

I know in Denver, when it warms up, Spring Fever is going to hit people like a fucking truck this year. You're just not going to keep people inside. They'll be running, biking, walking their dogs...and all of that is OK...at a distance. 

I say this only because I think we're going to hit a point where the isolation, depression and crushing anxiety is going to start doing more harm than the virus itself.

at what point does knowingly putting others at risk become a criminal act?   I have heard of one case where a person wasnt feeling well so went and got tested, but went back to their job working with the public while waiting for their test result.... which came back positive.  IMO that kind of disregard for others safety should have serious consequences.
This is exactly what Rand Paul did.  Got tested and while waiting for the results, worked out in the Senate gym and swam in the pool.  He tested positive. I just can’t believe the level of stupidity and arrogance this shows.

Rate of infection animated (excluding china). Watch how alarmingly similar the paces of Italy and the US are. Also, keep an eye on South Korea. Right around the beginning of March, they did something just stopped new cases in their tracks.
