It’s an “open” rebellion.
A Staten Island pub located in a coronavirus hot spot is stealing a page from Seattle’s anarchist cookbook, declaring itself an “autonomous zone,” free from the public-safety restrictions its owners say they will refuse to abide by.
“!ATTENTION! We hereby declare this establishment an !!!AUTONOMOUS ZONE!!!” read signs outside and around Mac’s Public House in Grant City, invoking a phrase more commonly associated with the monthlong occupation of Capitol Hill in the Emerald City by anti-cop radicals. “We refuse to abide by any rules and regulations put forth by the Mayor of NYC and Governor of NY State.”

Can someone on the Left explain how this is any different than Stonewall?
These folks aren’t degenerates?
NY ping
God bless and protect them and may this spread like wildfire.
The only reason the threats and fines work is cause people cave.
If enough people refuse to comply, the government will be powerless to stop them.
But it takes someone with the manhood to stand up to the bullies, and others will follow.
Civil disobedience is most effective if done in volume.
There must be bodies everywhere.
“...But it takes someone with the manhood to stand up to the bullies...”
They need to get a solid group together and decide how far they’re gonna rebel.
This is NYC so it will be difficult to arm up, but they certainly can man up with ball bats, pipes, meat cleavers, knives, all sorts of stuff because we all know the communists are coming and they will be armed to the teeth.
That’s what Batman says......
Rebellion is brewing.
Ditto that!
There’s always the Black Market.
Or the Dark Web where almost anything can be bought.
I am proud of this act and these people.
But personal risk is a personal decision. And so I applaud those who resist unconstitutional government coercion under color of "emergency powers." As the SCOTUS recently affirmed, some things are unconstitutional no matter what the reason. The lockdowns generally are flatly unconstitutional.
And in any case, the entire lockdown scheme has been fueled from the outset - from Day 1 - by Maoist CCP propaganda, designed to weaken the West and to strip CLASSICAL liberal nations of their freedoms.
And that's how the China CCP wins their war against the West.
The CCP observed how readily Americans were willing to take off their shoes at the airport after ONE attempted “shoe bombing”.
The CCP correctly realized that modern Americans value “safety” over freedom.
Well, they aren’t sheep allowing an overbearing government to walk all over them - they’re closer to the Founders than a lot of willing slaves.
