    Yeah, you guessed it, piles of poop and gallons of piss
    deposited where you don't really want it deposited.
    My guess is that the liberal politicians are being given
    a messy message by people teed off by these stupid edicts.

      And you're cheering the liberal idiots who think closing restrooms will force people to stay home.

        Ever see a state park bathroom?

        Might as well put "Catch Covid here" sign on the unlocked door

          So what is the difference with all of workers using the portable toilets at all of the constructions locations.How about the rest areas on the highways the one that is about five miles from our house has about 100 trucks parked at it.Who do you think is using it all day long.

            There's a building going up across from my job now. Lots of guys there, still mostly open. The portables are outdoors and don't have a queue so they air out a little.

            The truck stop....maybe the folks there sanitize, maybe they don't. Some truck stop cans are clean, some are not.

            I know a trucker, from when he was a kid growing up around here. He's already had Covid, knows two guys who died from it. He was running freight in the NY/NJ area in late Feb./early March.

            You won't catch me in truck stops or rest area bathrooms for the time being. YMMV.

            Back to the OP, there's never an excuse for people going to closed parks, and leaving their effluent behind. DT surely remembers how the government shutdown soiled California's national parks.

                Yes. Now when things were shut down, traffic was way down, and so was the pressure on those bathrooms. Maybe the attendants were given instructions to keep things extra clean, or maybe not. With things picking up, that is going to be an increased point of risk, but if you gotta go, you gotta go.

                Catching germs in a bathroom is a known thing. I'm not a germophobe per se, but I have paid closer attention these days to what the hands touch. What I don't like is the bathrooms with hot air dryers only (no towel option) but then after washing & drying your hands, to get out you have to grab the same door handle as the guy who didn't bother to wash his.

                  I have few distinctions or accomplishments to boast of, but I do have ONE that may be singular! Many decades ago, I had occasion to enter the first plastic shat-house I'd ever seen, expecting to find (how could I know better?) some sort of flush system with a holding tank, as on campers. What I saw, of course, were turds floating in tank of disinfectant! I departed in haste & revulsion, & that was the LAST time I set foot in one of those abominations! Fortunately, like the bears, I learned long ago how to "shat in the woods," & that I'll always choose over setting foot in another plastic shat-house!

                    Sorry the traffic has not dropped off on this highway.When I drive by in the morning tomorrow it will be full on both sides.It will be full of cars and trucks and the truckers sleep there over night.Where do you think where the drivers go to hit the head? We go to Camp Perry every year and you use the portable toilets that are on the Ranges and in the Pits.My Grandmother still had her outhouse in the 1980's and that was in Ohio.

                      Which has what to do with OP?

                      Bathrooms are a vector. Aerosols. The virus can get to the gut too. You breath another guy's stink you could be breathing his virus.

                      Essential jobs kept working. That fact didn't keep truckers, meatpackers, warehouse workers, from getting sick.

                      Non essential stuff was shut down in an attempt to control the spread. It kinda worked, some places a lot better than others. Pretty much everyone agreed we had to try. Frolicking in State Parks fits most descriptions of non-essential.

                      People shouldn't just take a dump in public lands for others to find it.

                      How is any of that hard to get?

                          In the backcountry holes are recommended. I'd settle for under a bush where no one stumbles on it.

                            how about as a part of the stimulus, every one is given a honeypot w/ tight fitting lid,


                            as a condition of the stimulus, everyone needs to carry the honeypot with them if they leave the house,


                            no exceptions,

                            they can empty the honeypots when they return home (empty in your own toilet)


                            would that work?
