Governments pass ever more restrictive rules in the name of saving us. How many of these rules are helpful? In Encinitas, California, police gave $1000 tickets to people inside cars– watching the sunset. Surfers were arrested, despite being far from anyone. Such excessive restrictions may even do harm, by preventing people from getting exercise. Michigan’s governor condescended to allow big stores to stay open, but told them they must not sell “carpet, flooring, furniture, garden centers, plant nurseries, or paint.” The stores had to rope off those aisles. These rules are arbitrary, and excessive. Sweden took the opposite approach, reasoning that isolating people blocks the creation of “herd immunity,” the long term solution to new contagious diseases like Covid-19. In Europe, many countries are relaxing rules and starting to reopen. The above video discusses how and why.
Sara Brady, 40, was arrested and charged with one count of misdemeanor trespassing, the Meridian Police Department announced in a news release, after officers responded to Kleiner Park following “several calls to Ada County Dispatch.”
This man was caught on tape being arrested in front of his young daughter. His “crime”? Going to get some fresh air in the park while he played catch with his kid in Brighton, Colorado. The man says that being handcuffed and taken into custody in front of his young daughter has really affected her. He should know: he’s a former State Trooper, and he says that the cops should have used more discretion.
Michigan Governor is telling people they must obey her or face the consequence. No buying seeds or planting a garden, no fishing, no painting, no buying carpet. She wants Michigan to be under government control and refuses to accept the Constitution she took an Oath to serve
and protect when she was sworn into office.
Judge Andrew Napolitano tells ‘Fox & Friends’ that he’s surprised Michiganders did not protest sooner against the state’s stay-at-home order.
