Ottawa denying launching to out of Staters

[Eyezcrazy]

I believe the Governor is doing what he can to slow the spread in Ohio. It’s not only the time in their boats it when they stop at the stores or gas stations. This is how it is spread state to state. As for you calling people sheep for following the order...I guess we have no need for any laws if that’s the case. I mean, everyone should just do what they want because we all have our freedoms? Why have legal limits for alcohol? We are all adult enough to know when to say when. Why are us sheep even listening to any of these rules of law. Your sheep argument doesn’t hold water.

Actually, it does hold water. If an order or law doesn’t make sense, yet people willingly go along with whichever Governor’s order and condemn those that protest. For example, I am an Ohio native that resides in TSUN. Our governor has declared that we cannot buy paint in a 50,000 square foot store. We CAN order the same paint on line and pick it up at the same store. Or we can purchase from a store under 50,000 square feet. Please, someone explain the logic. Our governor can’t, her response is basically, “because I said so”. Therefore, there are protests. To do so is a right guaranteed by the first amendment, which does not include a clause modifying it because of a pandemic. As far as fishing/boating is concerned, the launch ramps can be easily modified so that people maintain their distance. In over 50 years of boating, I really don’t recall being very close to other people launching their boats, although I admit I never had reason to pay attention to such things.

Oregon, and Wash State, totally locked down for all fishing...both fresh and salt.
