Do you think people will riot in mass if it goes longer than that?

Masks should be required when rioting. And gloves.

Have some consideration for fellow rioters!

Hoods optional. But shirts & shoes required for restaurants.

Protesting and rioting can work up an appetite.
I always like a piece of Dutch apple pie and coffee after shouting insults at people I don’t know.

Probably not. We can't really go another 4 weeks anyway

First off, we never really and truly locked down. Second, we never even followed the rules of the partial shutdown. Third, we found the threshold somewhere with the levels we took, so we can let more people and businesses return, but with continued restrictions. I don't think we'll see "business as usual" for a long time. I also think masks and testing are the two things we need a LOT MORE of to help us return to work as much as possible. Both will pay for themselves by allowing increased economic activity.

cause going to grocery store is more safe than being alone on a surfboard in the of the ocean or being alone with your daughter in the middle of a football field.

I'm in SC. No one locked down here anyway. No one stopped

anyone. The only people who complied were the businesses. We barely managed to flatten our curve here in SC on April 1, when people actually did a better job staying home. First 2-3 weeks we stayed put relatively well (50% reduction in traffic). Then it fell apart the past two weeks, even before. Traffic is probably 85-90% of normal now at least in my area. Initially people were more compliant than the governor asked. Then when the governor shut things down, they became less compliant.
That's why you will likely see SC, GA, etc. having increased cases in the next few weeks.
Sounds like you should move down here. Your governor did go WAY too far though. That crap wouldn't fly here at all. Then again we'd never elect your governor
Still, I'd rather see us reopen with continued precautions. Work from home if possible. Everyone has and wears masks. No large groups of people. Keep a distance. You can open up a lot with just those precautions, and the masks would make that scenario just as effective as a shut down. The problem will be sporting events, concerts, bars, schools, and restaurants. As for restaurants and bars, no big loss for me. Don't go to bars much at all or restaurants. Grew up eating at home. It's been nice. I've saved a ton of money and lost weight, and am eating FAR healthier. We went to restaurants maybe once a month growing up. Our yard is a playground. Kids have gone to the lake, shooting clays, we've done lots social distancing. They do miss playing with friends though, and I miss some income driving and meeting people in person in their homes.

It more of a suggestion in most places, quasi lockdowns. Not that much different where I am, only thing has been restaurants and malls. Neither of which i frequent.

Read tigermanac above. Also, how about jobs? Some people think jobs and the economy matter. Those crazies.

Trump thinks he can't win if he can't hold rallies.

Most places will open up in two weeks. NY, Cali and a few others hold out for federal bailouts.
