This story has to start with the K-rails, and keep this image in mind. During the worst of the pandemic measures, restaurants in California were unable to serve customers indoors. They turned to take-out and delivery service to survive, but lost their core business. So cities all over the state did something that was actually kind of pleasant, closing main streets and putting up concrete barriers to create pedestrian-friendly outdoor dining areas where restaurants could “safely” — yes, eye roll — serve their customers.
This was hilarious. Reminds me of the local going-ons in Vermont. It is now illegal to throw food in the trash. You must compost it or put it in a separate food trash bucket. Unless you don’t want to, of course, as the “law” has zero enforcement provisions. Thank god. Meanwhile in Burlington, the homeless are murdering each other but the city council has voted to legalize prostitution. (It’s still against state law, though, lest folks start flocking here for maple flavored prozzies.)
Those barriers happened once before, after 9/11. Supposedly they were meant to prevent "Islamic terrorists" from invading, but the sheriff accidentally let the truth out. He was more afraid of rebellious local peasants.
The lucite barriers serve the same function. Nobody can possibly imagine that a lucite barrier will block an airborne virus. It's there to protect the store clerks and bus drivers from peasants who don't like being tortured and strangled.
