Denver mayor reverses order to close liquor stores, recreational marijuana dispensaries after crowds swarm

Hours after Denver Mayor Michael Hancock announced liquor stores and recreational marijuana dispensaries would close across the city in an attempt to slow the spread of coronavirus, his office reversed course, a report said.

The mayor sent a tweet at 5 p.m. Denver time saying liquor and marijuana stores in city would be open as usual, but following extreme physical distancing rules (social distancing). The new rules will continue through April 10, the Denver Post reported.

In response to Hancock’s order, city residents swarmed neighborhood liquor stores Monday afternoon — but violated social distancing requirements while they were at it — with some stores reporting lines forming a block long just 15 minutes after the mayor’s news conference, the Post reported.

Argonaut Wine & Liquor co-owner Josh Robinson told the newspaper his staff had to act like bouncers, allowing one shopper in for each person that left.

“It’s created a safety issue in the short term,” Robinson said. “The mayor said not to panic buy, but that is exactly what he encouraged people to do by shutting us down.”


Don't Mess with my booze and pot!

On my bucket list is one cigarette and a marijuana cigarette! Party time! The weather is nice this week and we are planning to sit on my veranda (6 feet away) and have a beer! :)

Gee, I wish my state's Mayors had been left to make individual decisions, instead, our state governor closed all liquor stores for the whole state all by himself TWO WEEKS AGO even though 90% of the state is at low risk.
 
When will the idiots figure out that by creating the panic, they only spread it further as everyone rushes to stores to clean them out?
Grocery stores are packed with panicky idiots all touching shit.
The shutdowns have been approached with very little common sense.

I disagree. Just as you alluded that people going into stores to clean them out, they had to shut down the non vital spots so many more don't get sick.

The shutdowns have been approached with very little common sense.

One local company offered free Covid testing at the zoo parking lot last weekend. Apparently thousands of cars flocked there tying up bridges and streets with traffic for miles. Now, you would think that if you are well enough for that, you are probably not all that sick. Thousands of the people were turned away after waiting hours in line for not even meeting the minimum requirements of symptoms for the testing.

A long line of morons who think if they get the test they are suddenly "all good".

You can test good today and maybe not good down the road.

And you can be common cold free and then catch it.
