Lots of places with stay home orders, but still people just need to do it.

Common sense will prevail for most. Darwin will look after the rest.
I'm glad he issued the order. It is frustrating that I cannot find it on the CDPHE website or the Governor's executive order page https://www.colorado.gov/governor/2020-executive-orders
Hopefully that will be corrected soon.
I found it on the Colorado Public Radio web site.
Where? And is it the text of the full order or a summary? The Public Safety Alert just went out and colorado.gov is swamped at the moment. For employers, it is really important to know the exact text of the order to see how we can comply. For employees, it is also important to know, for labor rights and workplace safety reasons.
Aha! After rooting around enough, I came across this link. For anybody who needs it: The order
Thanks GP!
As long as I can buy food, booze, and dope—I am good.
I have postponed my guns and ammo purchases. I do find it interesting that both “firearms stores” and “gun stores” are mentioned. Is firearms too bigly a word for a certain crowd?
Attaboy, dave.
I'm wth you.
Of course, with my guns and ammo, I can help myself to dave's food, booze and dope!
Nope.
. . . at least not until armed robbery is permitted to be “necessary business.”
Rules is rules.

You will, however, probably soon be in the clear just shooting him — and may even be encouraged to do so, under the Republican plan and federal preemption. (As I understand it, the details on the age requirements, etc., are currently being discussed and negotiated, and have not yet been finalized.) But, I think you may still have to leave his food, booze, and drugs, untouched, even then . . .
. . . at least until we get a clarifying SCOTUS ruling?
It’s complicated, and things are going to be a little in flux for awhile, given the current state of things.
One chart explains why Polis decided to act now:

Let me try to paste the chart one more time

Aw heck!
Colorado Case Summary (Updated 3/25/20 at 4:00 p.m.) PDF version
Note: This summary only includes data through 3/24 and does not reflect cases since then.
1,086 cases*
147 hospitalized
36 counties
8,064 people tested
19 deaths **Correction**
9 outbreaks at residential and non-hospital health care facilities
Here's a moral and ethical problem I would not wish on anyone. And it is primarily due to the critical shortage of PPE that Trump takes no responsibility for.
