While I am totally for wearing a mask, keeping your distance and not going out as much as possible, I think the curfew is totally ridiculous and useless. The virus doesn’t know the time of day and people can visit and see others from 8pm to 5am it only makes it a bit uncomfortable, the virus is perfectly happy to spread between 8pm and 5 am.
As far as the cops, the kid was 17 and only one set of lights away from being home or complying, so yes the cops were total ass holes and on their usual power trip, it is a 17 year old kid after all what would have been wrong with giving him a warning.
It would have hurt the ass hole cops super power trip ego that’s what.
Perhaps some people have a hard time remembering when they were 17 and the stupid shit they did then and they wonder why a lot of people hate cops and don’t want anything to do with them.
Personally I have never had a pleasant conversation with a cop they all have this huge chip on their shoulder and talk down to you, obvious sign of a real dumb ass.
