Ok, the line has been drawn here. Are public officials allowed to rule by edict or are we still a free people?

Are public officials allowed to rule by edict or are we still a free people? Yes and no.
Governors have been given a lot of power by their states, and since these powers have been used relatively rarely, they haven't been abused enough to be litigated. And, no, we aren't free--just semi-free. Various officials, including police, can abuse the hell out of you and claim "qualified immunity" because they are in a public position. They can't just shoot you (because of cameras), but they can physically and legally abuse you, and getting redress requires a long and expensive appeal process.

It’s only a matter of time before one of these tyrant Democrat governors finds out that their armed guards and police force are no longer willing to protect them.

Musk defied today and said if anyone is to be arrested then arrest me.
Dems are on the losing side and have overplayed their hand again just like occupy, hands up don’t shoot etc

For those not familiar with Pennsylvania political geography:
Franklin County is the most westward of the "red zone" counties along the Maryland border.

Ok there are less than 4000 covid deaths. More than 2/3 are from nursing home residents.
So, if you dont reside in a nursing home you have a less than .008 % chance of dying of covid in Pa.

With the internet, people are beginning to set up alternative norms. Hopefully, going forward, a virtual secession movement will begin .. under ground economies, etc

We haven’t been a free people for many years.

Still think Trump is going to win PA or MI with these kind of tyrannical Governors ???
What will most likely happen is they will fail to certify results before the required time "due to COVID-19", thus denying Trump or the Dem Candidate 270 EV.
This means the current House of Representatives will elect the Dem president, and kick off a civil war for a second time ...
