A major protest against the state governor’s tyrannical lockdown order occurred yesterday in Wisconsin.
Thousands of protesters descended on the Wisconsin State Capitol on Friday as they called for coronavirus restrictions implemented by Gov. Tony Evers (D) to be lifted.
Photos of the massive demonstration show protesters packed on the capitol’s steps, breaking social distancing guidelines as they crammed into the area standing shoulder to shoulder.
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports that protesters cheered “USA” and circulated petitions to recall Evers. Protesters also reportedly held signs reading “All Workers, Are Essential” and “Death…. is preferable to communism.”
The original stay-at-home order was supposed to end Friday, but last week, Evers extended it to May 26. Evers’s new extension of stay-at-home orders does make some adjustments, including the opening of golf courses.
As of Friday evening, Wisconsin health officials said there were 5,356 confirmed cases of coronavirus in the state and 262 deaths.
I’ve been saying for weeks that it would be impossible to maintain these retarded lockdown orders indefinitely. Especially considering how it is becoming increasingly obvious that the coronavirus has not caused a major health crisis. Hospitals are empty and medical workers are being laid off around the country. All the data we are getting shows that the coronavirus is no more dangerous than the flu and that’s despite weird attempts by government officials to inflate the death numbers.
These lockdown orders are nothing more than a deliberate attack against working Americans. The lockdowns threaten people’s ability to survive and provide for their families. Protests against them are only going to grow in size and frequency the longer they continue. What else is someone who is out of work and can’t get work because of government imposed restrictions going to do besides protest? These state governments have left these people with no alternative but to protest.
All these unconstitutional and illegal lockdowns need to end immediately. The focus needs to shift on to how we are going to manage the severe economic fallout that has resulted from this madness. Of course, the chance of that happening is close to zero. These treasonous politicians and bureaucrats are going to try and extend these lockdowns as long as possible.
