Arizona: 8pn-5am curfew.

[Jgunner]

Doug ducey called this in today. Can be a misdemeanor if found out in public after 8pm up until 5 am unless a first responder or just an essential worker/got a real reason or whatever.

The problem is: they are not abiding.

Will police do their job? Will the police be allowed to do their job? If mass arrests happen, where will they all be put?

I see they are deploying tear gas.

The list of exemptions is long, including obtaining food. I’m in Tucson this week for work. I anticipate having to travel between my elderly parent’s house and my buddy’s house where I’m caring for his dog after curfew. I expect this will only be enforced against protesters/looters, not against normal taxpayers.
