Anti-Trump Mayor Taunts Lock-Down Protesters and Laid Off Workers While His Business Is Open

The U.S. debate over restrictions for fighting the coronavirus intensified, as protesters labeled mandatory lockdowns as “tyranny,” while medical workers and health experts cautioned that lifting them too soon risked unleashing a greater disaster.

Liberals want a lockdown but only if that doesn’t hurt their business. From BLN News:

In response to citizens peaceably protesting yesterday-

Normal Il mayor taunted “nonessential” struggling citizens and business owners while his business is OPEN. The banner proves he has NO compassion for his own community. He knew people were coming to protest, his message to those NOT ALLOWED to work: his middle finger!

Worse – Koos told the police to fine or arrest nonessential citizens who dare to earn a living.

Koos was brazen enough to post this picture on his Facebook page, minus the text of course. This tyrant is proud of himself! Photo below: I own a bicycle. I ride a bicycle. Or, rather, I used to ride, before the democrat county executive closed ALL the county parks and ALL the bike trails.

In light of the ban on using a bicycle, I am failing to see how a bicycle shop qualifies as “essential”.

Koos also suffer from Trump derangement syndrome! Photo below: What this mayor is doing is almost as outrageous as the fact that nobody in his town will do anything about it.

Please share this article wherever you can. It is the only way we can work around their censorship and ensure people receive news about issues that Democrats and the mainstream media suppress.

He owns a business AND he receives the perk$ from the tax payers. Boycott his business and vote him out. If he wins the next election then Normal really is Abnormal and gets what they deserve.

PO’s me that my tax dollars went to a motard like that. I’m just hoping that even the ignorant around us that vote will see the problems in the Demonrat-run cities and states and will vote the bums out in November!!

The Chastisement of John Malcolm

In 1774, John Malcolm was a Crown customs collector, based in Boston. At that time Boston had had five years of civic tension culminating in the Boston Massacre. Malcolm, like most Crown representatives didn't much like the Bostonians and harboured smouldering resentment against the uppity locals who had been resisting Crown authority since the Stamp Act in 1768. They made his job difficult. Malcolm had more reason than most to hold a grudge against the colonists. He had only recently had a run-in with the good people of Portland, Maine on a customs matter over which they had disagreed. The Portland folks saw fit to tar and feather Malcolm but were kind enough to allow him to remain clothed for the treatment. Being a prideful man who was impressed by his own authority, this didn't sit well.

In the snow covered streets of Boston in January, Malcolm was run over by a boy sledding in the street. Malcolm, his temper getting the best of him, raised his cane to strike the boy. George Hewes, a local shoemaker, intervened and Malcolm turned on Hewes. At first, Malcolm tried to overawe Hewes with his social rank - being a gentleman and, in Malcolm's mind, a hero of the French and Indian War. Hewes took the vituperation of Malcolm with a grain of salt and retorted "Be that as it may, I was never tarred and feathered." That was the match to Malcolm's tinder and he flew at Hewes and struck him a near fatal blow to the head with his cane.

The town of Boston was already electric with tension between the locals and Crown representatives and word of this attack spread almost instantly. A crowd gathered at Malcolm's house while he shouted out a window, relishing baiting the crowd into an uproar, and flourishing with his sword, eventually stabbing one man in the chest.

The crowd swarmed the house, forcing Malcolm to retreat to the second floor. Malcolm was eventually disarmed and the crowd seized him, tied him, put him on a sled and dragged him through the town as brickbats rained upon him.

After pulling him by the wharfs to pick up a barrel of tar, the mob took him to King St, by the Town House, where political rallies were customarily held and where the Massacre had occurred.

In the chill of the coldest night of a Boston January Malcolm was stripped, dislocating his arm, and hot tar daubed on his bare skin, burning his flesh.

Feathers then were applied to give what was then called the "modern jacket". Malcolm was then paraded, both burned and freezing, from one end of the town to the other and back. At the Liberty Tree they threw a noose around his neck and threatened to hang him if he didn't denounce the Governor and the Customs Commissioners. He refused but they didn't hang him. Instead they paraded him back to the far end of town again, eventually rolling him out of the cart at his home "like a log."

Malcolm wasn't the first or last to suffer from the people's anger. In the time before Concord and Lexington many Crown representatives as well as colonists in government positions suffered their houses to be ransacked, demolished or fired and their persons to be insulted most cruelly. Soon, the British Regulars - the Redcoats - the Crown's SWAT teams of the time - which had been withdrawn after the Boston Massacre in an attempt to calm matters were returned in force and Boston was placed under martial law.

Mayor of "Normal", IL?!

Pretty abnormal to me.

He's been mayor for almost 20 years which says a lot about his career politics and hating individual freedom and Trump.

[jonascord]

"What this mayor is doing is almost as outrageous as the fact that nobody in his town will do anything about it. "

Do WHAT? Inflicting THE THING buys you life without parole in Marion. And knowing that he is proofed against THE THING is the only reason he can lock up the town, with his private Brute Squad.

[Oldexpat]

A real Shiite hole of a town.

[GreyHoundSailor]

Those are some mighty large windows in that shop of his.
