    Good thing we didn't have the presidents of Italy, Spain, France or the UK. Or it'd be even worse.

    Next, imagine a nation the size of California...with 31 million fewer people in it. You have Norway.

    You do know that the population of Norway is mostly in a very small percentage of its land mass, right?

    I mean, I'm pretty sure that's true in California, too.

    Oslo is 7 hours each from the next three biggest cities. At any rate LA's metro area alone has twice as many people as Norway has in its entire nation.

    Why in the world would we compare the US to Norway?

    Ah - because it makes America look bad. Which is kind of the point of many Internet articles.

    Headline: Governor "tells"
    Lede: Governor issues "ultimatum"
    Quote from governor: "request"

    Editing is a good thing. A lot of things in this world are falsely termed "lost arts." Editing is not among them.

    At any rate, this is a Trumpist governor playing to the base.

    That's going to end up with a bunch of Cliven Bundy acolytes storming the reservations heavily armed and sans masks.

    Do you think the Sioux should have checkpoints?

    Do you think Rhode Island should have done so?

    I hope the MAGGATS wear Arrow shirts.

    They were doing something stupid so it’s easy to assume it was a man.
