There are plenty of unused military barracks around. Ship them all there, lock the gates, and let them party as much as they like. Oh, and tell them they will have to bury their own dead.

Add armed guards to shoot on sight any attempted escapees, and you have a deal!

Isn't there a sci-fi/fantasy/zombie-land story that starts out that way ...
Keep Calm and Carry On

Yes, something about a special zone for criminal gangs in New York, and they somehow kidnap the President. I think Mel Gibson plays the hero.

That's the one. I had an image in my mind of the lead actor but could not recall his name.

Kurt Russell is Snake Plissken, no he isn't dead. The president's plane went down and he was captured.

Escape from New York as a movie, but I read a short story years before that movie about a similar concept. I think it was written by Heinlein.

Local police in Québec are allowed to give tickets on the spot if people get together "too close".
It's (starting at) $1000+$500 administrative surcharge for the first offense for each person.
They gave 400 tickets in 3 days; they busted a soccer match.
I'd rather be phishing!

Are you guys allowed to got to the grocery store during lockdown?
|
|
|
|
|
Oh yes. But you have to queue to get in, and keep 2M apart at all times. Shops are limiting customer numbers, and only let a new one in when one leaves.

good. makes sense. some places here are now implementing the 1 for 1, entry rule.
6 feet(2 meter) distance, same here.
basically you are not allowed here to just walk around aimlessly, or be in groups of people, without attracting the coppers.

We are allowed to go for walks/bike rides as long as we keep 2 meters or more between people; major streets are being updated to reduce car space and allow more space for pedestrians.
Familly and people living at the same address are allowed to be more than 2 persons.

Pretty much the same here

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

It's the same at most stores where I live in Canada.
|
|
|
|

Yep, same as Griff.
Every lockdown I've seen allow going to at least the supermarkets and pharmacies and booze shops.
We also have smaller local food store open like bakeries, butcher shops, fruits and veggies open.
Most have the usual rules, queue outside, 2 meters apart, limited to 6 or less clients inside at the same time.

I am an antichrist
I am an anarchist

'Cause I want to be anarchy
No dogs body
Anarchy for the U.K.
A classic I hadn't listened to in a while[^] (but no, this won't be the SOTW)

The one woman waited until the police had left, and restarted her party.
So she finished the celebrations in a gaol cell.

Hey man, what's more bright than a party? A Supernova might be.
Let's party and ignore the OriginalGrief!

Except that the cells are overcrowded and don't allow for distancing.
Apparently, many jails in the US are releasing people early to try to alleviate this.
But year, WTF? People are dumb.

Well I've never considered myself right wing, but surely to God we have some uninhabited islands around our coastline. Ship 'em all over there and go and collect the survivors in three months.
As I've not heard a single comment/quote/announcement from the Home Secretary during this period, perhaps I should offer my services in the role ...
