Boat's owners, captain accused of violating social distancing guidelines

A party boat allegedly cruised around New York City on Saturday night with more than 170 guests, leading to three arrests amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The four-story Liberty Belle riverboat has four bars, three outdoor decks, and can fit as many as 600; people complained to authorities about it departing Manhattan's Pier 36 around 8:30pm, and when it returned about three hours later, deputies intercepted it. The boat's captain was arrested and issued a summons for not properly displaying the craft's ID number, and the boat's two owners were arrested and charged with violations including serving liquor without a license.

It sounds like a boat with a capacity of 600 was entertaining at less than 1/3 capacity - a situation that was conducive to adequate social distancing.

However, radicals saw them and turned them in, so the cops felt they had to do something to justify their existence and charged them with literally anything they could find even minutely wrong.

It's not really a news worthy story, but it does make for a good social commentary about the brown shirts in America. Someone is having fun! arrest them! Hahaha

Where did it mention radicals?




How do you know what the cops “felt”? Seems a strange take on it.

Don't you think it takes an absolute radical to call the cops on a few people on a boat?

I'd say it takes a person with mental health issues myself... who cares what others do? For real.

As far as cops feeling a need to justify their existence, with all the calls to "defund" police department's across the nation they may feel undue pressure from the public to justify their paychecks.

You may consider my post an opinion piece... :) likely one with far more worth than the "news" article..

However, radicals saw them and turned them in, so the cops felt they had to do something to verify their existence and charged them with literally anything they could find even minutely wrong.

Yeah, or shoot them on the spot for not wearing masks- as some compassionate liberals say. :wave:

This country is in serious trouble. People just will not do what is needed to get this crisis under control. If the "greatest generation" (WW II era people) are looking down from Heaven and watching what has become of the American people and their unwillingness to sacrifice during a real crisis, they must be very disappointed in their grandchildren and great grandchildren.

IMO they just threw in the social distancing charge because that was probably to address the initial complaint. 170 is within the guidelines for a 600 capacity restaurant but I do not know if NYS is allowing any party boats at all out of NYC at this time , Nor do I know whether, if they are allowing them, they are allowed to have the same percentage of capacity as a restaurant. None the less they had the other violations.

And I suspect the initial complainant had no idea how many people were on the boat, if it was noisy and the people were concentrated in just one or two of the decks.

People are making unfair assumptions about the complainant, brown shirt?(you've list the argument if your comparing this to the Nazis).

Basil the great! Dude! Just take it with a grain of salt. :) Turn off the "news" and don't worry about it. It's not as bad as the media wants you to believe. Can't hide in your house forever. Let the joy of the Lord be your strength! He's got this! :oldthumbsup: Just think of the bros and sisters in heaven now with the Lord. They don't have to suffer anymore or go through what is coming up. That's a good thing according to St. Paul.

Kids were playing soccer, people were playing softball at our parks last weekend-on the outskirts of St.Louis. A few places might have it worse, but that is the nature of a virus. It will ebb and flow until we have all been exposed. After death has claimed the number God has allowed. Then it will be ok. :)

Do we believe this anymore? Our are we so conformed to the world we have lost our desire to check out of this skin suit and be with God and the saints? :scratch:

21For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain. 22But if I am to live on in the flesh, this will mean fruitful labor for me; and I do not know which to choose. 23But I am hard-pressed from both directions, having the desire to depart and be with Christ, for that is very much better; 24yet to remain on in the flesh is more necessary for your sake.

Well if I believed the mainstream narrative lie, I would probably agree with you. But I don’t! I’m sure most of the German folk believed Hitlers lies as well

Police are liars then. Seems a bit of an extreme leftist stance you are taking.

I'm more Conservatives when it comes to punishment. But where's Trump supporters compassion. When it comes to protecting people, from getting COVID-19. By just taking a few steps.

Nonsense you guys do nothing but whine about the economy and masks, and being asked to act like grownups, thats all the right has been doing since this started. The only deception is the ones people like you are spreading that will get people killed.

only good thing about all this we can laugh any time the right claims to be pro life, it was always a joke but now it's just laughable.

Many people seem to compare others to NAZIS these days. I would guess the people that complained were just busy bodies and not Nazis.
