When it really happens: SHTF...

That should prove interesting. Pretty much take some sort of declaration of martial law to enforce it. Many states with low rates will resist it. Even Cuomo will likely resist it as he's stated he would. He's mismanaging his state in the process and now threatening other states that are restricting New Yorkers who are fleeing NY and going to these other states. Restricting them is common sense. They are coming from the most infected area in the country. Surrounding states are gradually getting the bus companies shut down. There are even some demands to shut down the borders with NY to slow the spread.

Kind of turning into a Stephen King novel.

Stephen King novel, yep, that's about right....

The UK has always tried to control by consent, it's a system that to be quite honest, doesn't really work anymore.

We have rocketing levels of knife crime with our youngsters ( knife murders increase constantly) and 'zero' respect for the police or authority, with weak sentencing etc ...

The issue being that the bulk of the population will (and are) do as asked, the rest simply won't (as was witnessed by the disgraceful scene of people selfishly piling carts high in the supermarkets).

Consent doesn't work for people who simply aren't consenting, it might take a heavy handed approach do the job in the coming weeks, it will come as quite a shock to the criminally minded too!
