Coronavirus: Lockdown Protests and Riots

Update on the 77 year old barber vs the universe - https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politi...year-old-michigan-barber-who-reopened-n389860

Militia is blocking the cops from stopping the barber from opening his shop.
He lost his license but is still working anyway. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-new...censes-suspended-n1206951?cid=sm_npd_nn_tw_ma
“I have decided, within my authority, that our office cannot and will not divert our primary resources and efforts towards enforcement of Governor Whitmer’s executive orders.”

Do you hear that sound, Whitmer? Do you hear it? You should be able to, I imagine most of Michigan is quiet enough now to hear a pin drop.

I'm so glad our states are being consistent.
 
Speaking of pubs, here in the states all of the places that sell beer have locked up their beer coolers for some reason. Am I missing something? Every time I go to a convenience store to get a beer, the cooler doors are locked shut.

Styx vlogged about "Governor Gretchen" who called these protest racist.

These Youtubers are right on target.
I, Vercingetorix
In 10-15 years everyone will deny that they were complicit in "woke tyranny". Remember every name, every fake news story, and every real event.

Remember the boy who cried wolf? Now it’s the leftist who cried racist.

Two more barbers claim that they will reopen today, Friday the 15th, in defiance of Governor Whitmer's executive orders. The Michigan Conservative Coalition is organizing "Operation Haircut," for next Wednesday, May 20, which will involve giving free haircuts on the lawn of the state capitol

Michigan is a fascinating lesson in Poli Sci, Economics, History, and Civics. It’s like the perfect lab for political Science. Build your own Revolution in a box. You couldn’t dream up something like Whitmer if you tried. Is nobody in her circle warning her that she has lost the will of the governed and is now politically unsurvivable? And if she does not bow out immediately she is likely to end up dragged through the streets and left dead in a drainage ditch alongside many of history’s monsters. She’s actually worse than Maduro. That’s remarkable. All because she seems mentally incapable of admitting she was wrong or is following the wrong course.

I assume it's a state-by-state thing, since it isn't like that here. Of course Nevada has some of the least restrictive alcohol laws in the country, so that's hardly surprising.

You are also totally immune to coronavirus if you stay home after sunset and don't buy garden supplies at Walmart (Corona-Chan hangs out there, she doesn't care about anyone buying food).

I'm tempted to call these people the real heroes (and not like that stupid highway billboard campaign with the face masks saying "heroes") but I'll hold off until Governor Whitmer gets a haircut from the neck up as does the vast majority of other stupid politicians right now.

Michiganders flock to Ohio after the latter state reopens.

Tuscola County (in the Thumb) Board of Commissioners passes 5-0 resolution demanding various Coronavirus-related information from Governor Gretchen Whitmer (D), and to "encourage businesses in Tuscola County to determine the best approach to implement national guidelines for safe social distancing as they begin to open up and move Michigan forward without the Legislature extending the state of emergency and without the declaration of a statewide declaration of disaster."
Tuscola County has a population of ~56,000; 166 confirmed Coronavirus cases, and 17 deaths.

Thrift store chain Hope’s Outlet Ministries, in the Muskegon area (west side of the state, on Lake Michigan) fully reopened. Customers allowed into the store (not just curbside pickup), and masks not required. They are arguing that they are within the letter of the lockdown order, which allows "Workers and volunteers for businesses or operations (including both religious and secular nonprofit organizations) that provide food, shelter, and other necessities of life for economically disadvantaged or otherwise needy individuals, individuals who need assistance as a result of this emergency, and people with disabilities."
They argue that money from the thrift store funds an associated food pantry, and anyway, providing affordable clothing to the economically disadvantaged is itself a necessity of life.

Whitmer is getting away with it because she has support from most Dems due to TDS. When I saw her with her crazy eyes Midwestern nutjob personality, she reminded me of Gretchen the Mole Woman on Kimmy Schmidt. I thought she'd be pretty ripe for a good SNL parody. When I finally saw them do her, I got through about 20 seconds before I realized it was going to be a partisan, fawning, hagiography. She's a hero to the left because she's That Woman who defied Drumpf, therefore everything she does is noble and stunning and brave and for our best interests and a victory for women everywhere. If you are against Whitmer and the most authoritarian of lockdowns then you are clearly a racist pro-Trump science denier who loves big business more than grandma and the dying POCs.

Sadly, this is the narrative everywhere and will be for the next year.
 
And now, the US protests had spread Corona-chan widely.

Cellphone location data suggests that demonstrators at anti-lockdown protests – some of which have been connected with Covid-19 cases – are often traveling hundreds of miles to events, returning to all parts of their states, and even crossing into neighboring ones.

The data, provided to the Guardian by the progressive campaign group the Committee to Protect Medicare, raises the prospect that the protests will play a role in spreading the coronavirus epidemic to areas which have, so far, experienced relatively few infections.

The anonymized location data was captured from opt-in cellphone apps, and data scientists at the firm VoteMap used it to determine the movements of devices present at protests in late April and early May in five states: Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, Colorado and Florida.

Yeah, we are using your cell phone records to track your movement, what political protests you're involved in, how far you drive to engage in political protest and no, the data is not limited to third party companies for internal review. They just give out countless thousands of cell phone records detailing your movement, when you crossed a state line, when you attended a protest, to "data scientists at the firm VoteMap."

I'm glad these data scientists harvesting my data are using it to threaten our social credit score for not following government orders, and probably to target people who vote the right or wrong way. I trust Google and whatever other "third party apps" that are conducting 24/7 physical GPS surveillance of their users are respecting our privacy and "Anonymizing" our data instead of selling it.

At least they're too busy wagging a finger in everyone's face to realize they're pointing out just what can - And has been done even without any specific tracking software or anyone's permission.

Maybe a few people get thinking about what will happen if you actually say "Sure, track me. What could go wrong?". Tell these assholes they can do that and that data will get used and sold however they feel like.

This article is total bullshit. It just says "may spread it widely" because people are traveling. There's literally no way to prove any local outbreak anywhere else is a product of people going to protests as opposed to people driving around for whatever other reason. Or, you know, hopping on a plane. Why doesn't the Grauniad and these progtards bitch about why you can still buy a plane ticket to a fuckton of places right now?

But most importantly, why the hell does the Guardian and the "Committee to Protect Medicare" even have this information to begin with? That should really scare a lot of people that information on your movements are being sold to whoever asks for it. It doesn't just go into some government vault that nobody ever looks at, no, that wouldn't be enough for the powers that be, no, it gets sold to all these political groups, journalists, anyone!
 
The largest Michigan lockdown protest FB group "Michiganders Against Excessive Quarantine" has been nuked by Facebook for wrongthink.

It has since been replaced by a bunch of similarly-named groups that are pro-Whitmer, pro-lockdown, and possibly honeypots to lure in actual protesters and dox and snitch on them.

I don't understand how anyone wouldn't have seen this behavior from Whitmer coming a mile away though. First thing she did on getting elected was to demand Michiganders vote themselves a 45 cent per gallon gas tax and when they voted against it she basically said "fuck you peasants, fix your own roads with dirt and a shovel" and has since dedicated her entire rule to getting revenge on the little people.
 
Oh and since I'm locked out of the threads, accusing Tara Strong of having fake tits when they are not, using nazi and little Hitler when your leaders are trying to save your lives, believing nonsense conspiracy theories about our freedoms being taken away. Etc.
They filled my skateparks with sand, bro, my freedoms are gone mang
