I predict that this week Newsom will issue a NEW Shelter In Place Order this week. All non essential businesses shutdown and no in person interaction with anyone outside your household unless it's an essential service. This is how I think it will be stricter than the one in Spring:
1) Strict mask mandates for anytime you leave your house, including getting your mail or watering your front lawn. No mask exemptions so if you can't wear a mask for any reason, you stay in your house and have another household member get essential needs unless it's a life or death emergency.
2) This time they will enforce the rule about zero social interaction with anyone outside your household: that includes stopping to talk to a neighbor while you're walking your dog (even if you both have masks and stay 6 feet apart).
Anyone violating those two rules can be legally charged with a misdemeanor and fined up to $1,000 and/or sentenced to 30 days in jail. HOWEVER, the rules will ONLY be enforced in upper class neighborhoods where people are mostly law abiding and can afford to pay the fines. There will be a hotline to rat on people not following the rules. If the person in the neighborhood is White or Asian and upper class, the enforcement officers will actually show up and fine the violators. Lower class neighborhoods will probably be ignored because there is too much risk involved when it comes to enforcing the SIP law and they are very unlikely to pay the fine. I don't think anyone will go to jail but there will be plenty of citations and fines issued. Typical cases will be retired couples having their adult kids over for a meal, a person who lives alone having their significant other spend the night, a family with one kid having another family's kid over for a playdate, two single women walking their dogs together, and stopping to have a conversation with a neighbor who is watering the front lawn while jogging around the block. They will also take pictures of anyone who isn't wearing a mask on their mouth and nose and fine them if they are the right demographic to pay the fine to avoid trouble.
Can anyone else here see this coming?

The "stronger" the order, the more difficult it will be to enforce; the individual who does his/her best to comply with s mask recommendation isn't going to be as cooperative when set upon by a couple of "Karens" on a power trip -- or burdened by new directives from a school district more concerned with mindless conformity than developing an ability to think. Every new directive increases the incentive for the thinking individual to move away from the center of "the grid" -- albeit not to leave it.
He’ll wait until about a week before Christmas so he can ruin the holiday for as many people as possible.
I'm deer hunting and I don't care what he tosses out I'm up there I'll see probably...... zero people too. The first baloney lock down didn't stop us either will this garbage. I know when the forest service guys and gals start work and when they stop. They don't want to enforce this pile of steaming dung either.
Talk about a real life Grinch. He's so worried about his "legacy" yet he got caught at the French Laundry. I'm sorry but that's hilarious. Do as I say, not as I do.
I was going to call him Gavin the Grinch, but you beat me to it. I was out this weekend and no stores were limiting people to 25% capacity. People were going in and out as they pleased.
Maybe some restaurants will obey, but most people will ignore any stay at home orders. Let him order it. It’s useless.
I saw one restaurant is ignoring the order in LA and put up a sign over their name that said “The French Laundry”. LOL
There's a bar owner in Staten Island who declared his bar an autonomous zone.
The SF mayor was caught eating at the French Laundry one day after Newsom was there. Same with the LA woman who voted to ban outdoor dining was caught eating at a restaurant the day before the ban. Unbelievable.

Quite believable. They are politicians. They can do what they want. Rules, orders and laws are for us plebes.
Well, seeing as Newsome himself already stated before your post that it was likely....yes, we can all see it coming.
