Well put. You’re right, this has revealed a lot of secret statists hanging out here.

Hmm. It’s the city minority, single mommie and college student welfare recipients + UAW and NEA unionists + entitled retirees that get MI the D’rats.

A great many, as in MN and NY (state), do NOT want D’rats.

What police department wants all their officers tied up in endless jury trials, all of which end up in acquittal?

The police have never been able to stop the justifiably angry citizenry when they rise up against tyrannical, dictatorial maniacs.
Ask Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette. Or Tsar Nicholas II

The self-entitled and corrupt rules need to be taken down.

LEOs need to decide if their Jobs are Worth, protecting and enabling the lying/cheating political tyrants or to protect the people from those tyrants.

"Nicolae Ceausescu comes to mind."

I've always thought that displaying Quadaffi's naked body in a deli case had a certain, sneering style...

Richard III's skeleton show evidence that someone stuck a knife in his ass, and whacked him in the head with a pole ax, while it was slung over a horse.

We can learn from history.

When the enemy starts shooting at me.

With bullets, or with laws and regulations?

Those Michiganahs sure are Deplorable. Trump’s carrying the state again, no matter how many third-party can’tidates they put up there.

Pitchforks and torches would send the same message.

And which states are the enemy going to come from? My state New York? They vote 40% Republican and out of that 60% are whiny white kids, lazy black and Puerto Rican kids and Mexicans who don’t want to drop any blood for this country. Also others who don’t want to shed a drop are Russians Asians and albanians. You’ll basically be fighting a bunch of effeminate white kids and some minorities thrown it

It would be a 45 minute war :-)

“Michigan voters will never learn. They just keep electing liberals and should live with their decisions”.

SOME Michigan voters will never learn. SOME voters from every state will never learn.

We can learn from history.

We sure do. Those who don't learn from history, usually end up on the dust heap of history. Seen too many people who thought they had boundless power end up in ruins or suffer painful deaths for me to be impressed by Whitmer.

That said, I don’t think this is a good idea. If shooting actually does start, it will be used as an excuse for even more draconian restrictions, and most of the sheeple will cheer for it.

Yes, always best to surrender at the outset so nothing bad happens.

it is valuable to communicate to the political elite/elitists that the American Citizens are the ultimate sovereign in this country, NOT THEM! And, that they work FOR us, not the reverse.

A better idea than this stupid protest would have been to just say that on Thursday April 30, 2020 we will all open our businesses as usual.

If they can get this many people to ignore an unjust and unconstitutional law the government would be forced to rescind the law or fill their jails with common law-abiding business owners.

I don’t see the governor doing that. It would be political suicide.

Oh, please. All these idiots were doing was posing - and giving the Left more ammunition against us and our right to bear arms.

Weapons are for killing people and we haven’t hit that point yet. They’re not to be used a decoration at a demonstration.

I strongly suspect that none of those armed meatheads were ever involved in a shooting war. I have.
