So hopefully that will change.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>KUSI News<\/em> reported that &#8220;Campbell herself wasn\u2019t even following social distancing guidelines during her time at the park.

If you want to get drunk at a bar, that\u2019s okay. If you want to do yoga in the park, or if you want to feed your child because you need to sell something here, that\u2019s a problem.
