Yeah no fucking way

Why did y’all open stuff, DumbFuck🙄

If people would just wear masks, everyone wouldn't have to stay home.

'We only opened things up to fuck over people who were unemployed, you weren't supposed to actually go out'

IF THATS WHAT YOU, WANT GIVE PEOPLE MONEY

you think they'll listen

ericgarcetti if you want people to stay home....maybe you should reinstate lockdown? Only YOU can fix this.

Stay home unless protesting, then it's A OK! This spike couldn't have anything to do with the recent protests could it? Nah, those were approved by the LA times and Governor Grusome.

I predict at least an 85% increase in corona diagnosises after the 4th.

Close restaurants, bars, gyms and movie theaters. Stop playing with our lives.

I’m going to urge my urges urgently, as things are urgently urgent. The urgency with which the urges urge, is urgent.

Where was that during the riots one wonders?

Mayor Garcetti is the one who opened things up too early. A lot of this spike is on his hands for giving in to pressure.

Bullshit the death rate is plummeting. Why not report that? Because it's all about crashing the economy to make Trump look bad. Stop fear mongering.

Had nothing to do with the protesting and rioting

the MayorOfLA is dumb as hell

So. No mostly peaceful protests this weekend? Asking for a friend...

Nope! No one is going to listen. We’re over this!

I need a clarification. Are people just testing positive or are there legitimate cases and the hospitals are overpopulated because last month tests were producing false positives

What if we want to protest?

close your fucking restaurants

Is that the same mayor who shut down the testing sites

Here is the same mayor like a week ago. Notice how the protesters are wearing masks and he isn’t? Why would anyone in LA listen to this dipshit?

Unless you are going to a defund the police or destroy a statue rally

The Mayor of Los Angeles has CommonSense.

'Please don't use all these shops and restaurants we just opened up'

You stay home first

It’s official our mayor is openly on crack. He doesn’t have a clue what he’s doing.

' If I get Coronaravirus, I get immunity.' Never again, I will quarantine.

GavinNewsom please shut us down sir

MayorOfLA then why tf did you open them

Maybe he thought bars, salons, and restaurants were going to have Zoom sessions?

Good luck with that. People are tired of being lied to and are more willing to take risks. 😎

Hmm...this sounds familiar...sun-heat-beach-ocean. Does it make people stupid? FloridaDumb COVID StayAtHome

I'm not even remotely surprised.

Get those extra hospital beds and ventilators ready

Cases are going up due to testing. Deaths however, are decreasing.

Okay, cool...

MayorOfLA what the fuck did you THINK WAS GONNA HAPPEN

Why is it always beach scenes that photo editors choose? Outdoor is far safer than indoor, and recent outdoor protests were far more crowded than the beach.

The result of our leaders not giving necessary support and aid to workers. Now many are going into the red just to eat. Mayor, Governor, Congress all refuse rent cancel/forgiveness. Pelosi and a Dem House block $2k/month. This is the utter failure of establishment politicians.

They better not close down again. We all know this has been blown out of proportion. Otherwise, why would these so-called journalists lie about the protesters not contracting the virus, in which, I call BullS***. By the way, look at all these idiots with people not wearing a mask

I’m sorry, but the guy on the far right can walk down the street shirtless anytime he wants 😉

Hi, can you let me workplace know? Thank you.

LA mayor urges millions of American homeless people who lives on the streets to stay at their tents, don't look for a job, don't steal and don't go to FANCY restaurants.

Close it down

fuck did you think was gonna happen?

& we urge gacetti to defund the police more, fire michael moore & his racist looking eyebrows, but did he listen ?

I’m pro-testing. Get it?

Wow what another BS article of fear porn from this joke of paper. I like the part about how OC deaths were from back as far as May 9th.

Should have thought about that before the protests exacerbated the pandemic... I blame Blklivesmatter ... 🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️

MayorOfLA ericgarcetti do you know what you’re doing. Your all about business and money. You don’t care about people

.02% that’s the percent of the LA population that have been infected. .0008% that’s the percent of the LA population that have died from it. Yeah. Close everything. 🙄

What did he think was gonna happen yet opening everything back up? 🤔😂

Funny how peaceful folk are told to stay home and not work , but rioters and shit are told nothing .

ice town clown reopens whole town

Huh?

fucking incoherent-ass response

quelle surprise

Please explain the logic of saying this while letting gyms and indoor dining to reopen MayorOfLA

The mayor opened up all the clubs in Hollywood and now says stay home Fuck that guy!!

Medical Doctors -v- Politicians CoronaVirusUpdate

The mayor is a piece of 💩

But what about my rights to go to bars and restaurants. 😂😂😂

Stay home, unless you are protesting in the thousands shoulder to shoulder for nearly 3 weeks straight.

People will only stay home when things are closed, so close them!

LA & California's failures light up COVID-19 epidemic. 🖕

then extend unemployment and roll back reopening. How can we stay home when you force hourly workers to go back to work when businesses can't even afford to stay open, let alone pay their staff? How does that help anyone? MayorOfLA Give us a chance. We're begging you.

Gradually emerging from an economic coma? Seriously LA TIMES You don’t see a correlation? Perhaps LA Opened up too soon & too quickly? Even Disney recognized that! Report responsibly.

The same narrative by the left is about to resurface.. “if you go outdoors you are selfish and killing grandma”. Which is utterly sinister after encouraging thousands of ppl to gather in large crowds nationwide. I totally respect the desire to protest, but do you see the irony?

They are a hedonistic culture.

You mean stay at home until after the November election

Stay home

that time has passed.

I see kids soccer teams at the park 😳

Fuck “urging”. Drop the ORDER. Ppl stop being spoiled, complacent assholes and stop spreading this shit.

he wasn't doing this when people were protesting. In fact, the media brushed off COVID for 2 weeks. Im all for protest, but the increase in cases is directly related to the protest.

You can't make these narcissists stay home or wear masks, but you can definitely close the bars and restaurants that they are gathering in MayorOfLA

Only ((Trump supporters)), and most ((Republicans)) would take a common sense initiative about the importance of wearing masks and social distancing, & ((blame)) it on a ((Liberal agenda)). I am going to use my common sense and VOTE BLUE on all fronts next election.

They won't though. I suspect if this gets worse we will be shut down again after July 4th...

No. Don’t close them down again. People who tested positive or sick should stay home.

Only question I have is...is the death rate growth rate increasing? I don't know the answer. But it's the only thing I care about. Why would anyone care about more cases. But if it's mutating and death rate is increasing - then I care.

Lol not happening

Blow me

Don't urge them, ORDER THEM!!!

So we spent 3 months indoors for nothing. No one is going back in. OC residents will riot and loot if they are told to wear masks again. It’s a violation if their right as wealthy people.

At least these people are wearing masks

MayorOfLA You know what would be a great way to ensure people stay home? BY CLOSING THINGS DOWN AGAIN

Stay home even if you're young and in relative good health? Why is Pasadena's mortality rate 110% higher than the rest of LA county?

Welp, last time I checked, which is everyday...

No! Let’s go protest, loot and riot. Get with the program MayorOfLA

StayHomeSaveLives

I really wish all of California would do this. Only going out when absolutely necessary. Yeah it doesn't seem like many are dying but everyone reacts to viruses differently.

Maybe if they didn't let people riot we would be good

Should they issue another mandatory Stay at Home order? Congress SenateLive Senate HeroesAct
