Marlena Pavlos-Hackney, during her arraignment.
"Your health is your responsibility.”
Couldn't be simpler than that, and it makes control-freak liberal's heads explode.

A Michigan restaurant owner was arrested after she disregarded state Covid-19 protocols and ignored a court order, the state's top prosecutor said Friday.
Marlena Pavlos-Hackney, 55, of Holland, was taken into custody by Michigan State Police about 5:45 a.m. EDT, according to a statement from Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel.
Pavlos-Hackney, the owner of Marlena's Bistro and Pizzeria, had been given until Thursday to turn herself in after a warrant was issued for her arrest, Nessel said.
“This owner has continued to willfully violate the state’s food laws, public health orders and the order of the court — a dangerous act that may have exposed dozens of diners and employees to the virus following the discovery that one of Marlena’s customers tested positive for the virus within two days of eating there,” Nessel said in a statement.
The state and restaurant have been at odds for months over Covid-19 protocols.
Back in mid-November at the height of the fall spike, the state's Department of Health and Human Services banned indoor dining at restaurants in hopes of slowing the virus' spread.
Pavlos-Hackney kept Marlena's Bistro open, even posting a sign at the front door that read: “Welcome. We are a Constitutionally Compliant Business. We are not infringing on anyone’s inalienable rights. By law, we do not follow any of the governor’s, mayor’s, health department’s, or other government agency orders or suggestions pertaining to social distancing or mask wearing.”
The restaurant said that, "Your health is your responsibility.”

May Divine Providence stay her course.
Carl Drega, please pick up the white courtesy phone.

Amen..... May the mind and body controllers in Michigan burn in Hell.
My worst fear is that we’re going to have to shoot our way out of the current mess we find ourselves.
go surfing for “Carl Drega”....
Make Michigan a Free State.
Right now its a slave state.
No more chains. locks and fetters from the Michigan slave plantation owner/overseer Whitmer.
She and her lawyer from the Constitutional Law Group were on Beck’s show yesterday. She escaped from communist Poland to the land of the free.
Why aren’t we open yet, Witch-more?
This lady came here from a communist country. The constitution is still in effect. We are a free nation nazi’s need to stand down.
I would like to know if the state Legislature in Michigan passed a law that directs a business too close. How can a court issue an order without a law being broken. Just curious.
In today’s formerly-great USA you can do anything you want, but the biggest crime of all is defying the supreme authority of the almighty state.
Look at her expression in the photo.
She is not one to push around. I have an idea the MI gestapo will regret picking on her.
Go gal!
Let a jury decide.
She is Polish. Or pure Viking.
They picked the wrong one for sure.
The fight is on.
Black-robed tyrants do not like free Americans.
Surf Stuart Alexander.

Their Bodies, Their Choices.
Leftist ideology is the complete opposite of what the founding fathers envisioned for this country.
Are MI’s restaurants still closed to indoor dining or something?
Whitmer was elected by a 10-point margin. Her approval rating is still above 50% albeit narrowly above 50%. Her approval rating should be in the 30s. That it isn’t even though things like this are happening to good citizens, says a lot about MI voters and what it says isn’t’ good.
Will she be reelected?
