It’s been touted widely as some kind of tool of public control by The Moonbats.
It’s nothing of the sort of course, just personal vehicle/traffic management.

BEAR ATTACKS AND KILLS MAN IN WOODS AROUND PRESCOTT
At approximately 7:50 this morning, the YCSO dispatch center received multiple 911 calls about a man who was being mauled by a bear in the Groom Creek Area. When YCSO deputies and Prescott PD arrived at the scene, which was in a heavily wooded remote area, they found Steven Jackson, 66 years old of Tucson dead of an apparent bear attack, and the bear dead nearby. Deputies called officials from Arizona Game and Fish to respond to the scene as well.
From multiple witness accounts and preliminary investigation of the scene, Mr. Jackson had been sitting having coffee at a table on his property where he was building a home. It appears that a male black bear attacked Mr. Jackson, taking him unaware, and dragged him approximately 75 feet down an embankment.
Neighbors who heard the victim screaming tried to intervene through shouts and car horns, but the bear did not let go of Mr. Jackson until one neighbor was able to retrieve his rifle and shoot the bear to get him to disengage. Unfortunately, by that time Mr. Jackson has succumbed to his horrible injuries.
According to Arizona Game and Fish and confirmed by YCSO this attack, which appeared to be predatory in nature, is highly uncommon and unusual, with only one other fatal attack known since the mid 1980s. At first glance there did not appear to be anything on the site that would have precipitated a attack by the bear, such as food, a cooking site or access to water.
There is no threat to the public as this bear has been put down. The location where the attack occurred was not near recreational sites for camping, but officials still caution revelers to take precautions when camping, such as locking up food in a vehicle and not leaving out items such as toothpaste that may bring a bear to your campsite.
YCSO will be conducting the death investigation, while Game and Fish will investigate what may have caused the attack, but officials at the moment do not have a theory other than a predatory response by the bear. Both investigations are just beginning, and more information will be release when available.
“Our sincere sympathies go out to Mr. Jackson’s family” said Sheriff David Rhodes. “I cannot express how deeply sad this situation is and can only say our prayers are with you.”
YCSO and Game and Fish caution people to not shoot bears that they see unless there is an imminent threat to you or someone else.
With a black bear, one almost has to ask...
WHAT DID YOU DO!!!???
We had a resident here that confronted a bear with tupper ware on his porch protecting his pooch. Pots and pans clanging would have sufficed. My sister hit me with tupper ware once. Kinda just pissed me off.
Sad news that the folks died trying to see the Titanic. Lots of red flags about that sub before it went down.
Seems the Navy heard the implosion on Sunday. 😔
Because the Titan operated in international waters, it was not subject to safety regulations. The vessel was not certified as seaworthy by any regulatory agency or third-party organization.[41] Reporter David Pogue, who completed the expedition in 2022 as part of a CBS News Sunday Morning feature,[42] stated that all passengers who enter the Titan sign a waiver confirming their knowledge that it is an "experimental" vessel "that has not been approved or certified by any regulatory body, and could result in physical injury, disability, emotional trauma or death".[43] Television producer Mike Reiss, who also completed the expedition, noted the waiver "mention death three times on page one".[44] A 2019 article published in Smithsonian magazine referred to Rush [one of the cofounders of OceanGate, the company that built the submarine] as a "daredevil inventor".[14] In the article, Rush is described as having said the U.S. Passenger Vessel Safety Act of 1993 "needlessly prioritized passenger safety over commercial innovation".[14][45] In a 2022 interview, Rush told CBS News, "At some point, safety just is pure waste. I mean, if you just want to be safe, don't get out of bed. Don't get in your car. Don't do anything."[46] Speaking in a 2021 interview, Rush further observed, "I've broken some rules to make [the Titan]. I think I've broken them with logic and good engineering behind me. The carbon fiber and titanium, there's a rule you don't do that."[47]
@Tree09 I believe that one ticket on that mess of a submarine cost $250k. There were no poor working peeps on there.
@BlackSmith Sounds like the waivers are pretty ironclad. They'll definitely need some good lawyers and I bet there are plenty out there willing to do it pro bono for the attention. It's not as if the families can't afford representation of course. I'm speculating based on the cost of the ill fated sub ride. They obviously have loot to throw around.
"Customers who travelled to the Titanic with OceanGate, referred to as "mission specialists" by the company,[38] paid US$250,000 for the eight-day expedition.[4][39][40]"
More interesting information about the Titan sub incident...
"BBC News reported that in March 2018, Rob McCallum, a leading deep sea exploration specialist, emailed Rush to warn him he was potentially risking his clients' safety and advised against the submersible's use for commercial purposes until it had been independently tested and classified: "I implore you to take every care in your testing and sea trials and to be very, very conservative." In response, Rush replied that he was "tired of industry players who try to use a safety argument to stop innovation". McCallum then sent Rush another email in which he said: "I think you are potentially placing yourself and your clients in a dangerous dynamic. In your race to [the] Titanic you are mirroring that famous catch cry: 'She is unsinkable'". This prompted OceanGate's lawyers to threaten McCallum with legal action.[56]"
I think that's admirable. Nobody ever truly wins an argument about politics. Politics don't just divide countries, they can ruin friendships and create resentments for those are really empassioned about one side or the other. I've always had a personal rule of never discussing politics in depth with friends or family. There's sooooooooooo much else that I can talk about with them; subject matter that isn't nearly as polarizing. That's just my two cents. Don't get me wrong: there is a place for discussing politics, and having a political opinion is very important, and so is voting -- but as a civilian, I don't see the point in talking about it in depth unless I'm getting paid to do it (unless it's a job)...which it isn't for me.
