This was the clearest display of their hypocrisy and the fact that the restrictions in the face of the supposedly dread “virus” are not health-related but entirely political.

Politicians don’t have the right to impose onerous restrictions on us at all, much less over funerals.

They need to be put back into place. They are SUPPOSED to be our representatives.

We did not appoint them to be our overlords.

“No one would argue that Rep. John Lewis doesn’t deserve a proper memorial.”

He didn’t deserve a 13 day extravaganza. He did one good thing almost 60 years ago. Since then he worked tirelessly to hurt America. His home district is appalling, and the month before he died, he was celebrating the BLM riots in DC that tore down statues and burned a historic church.

He’s a low down POS in my opinion.

Politicians have the right to override the onerous restrictions on funerals

Incorrect.

What is correct is that politicians have NO RIGHT to place onerous restrictions on funerals in the first place.

John Lewis certainly merited a large funeral! However, so did several members of my two Orthodox Christian parishes who recently passed on! They also merited the traditional memorial services, memorial meals, 40-day memorials, etc. And so did we parishioners!!!!

However, due to the “covid” restrictions, NONE but John Lewis got any such thing!!! (In several cases, proper memorials are planned for after “covid” restrictions are gone.)

As for George Floyd Criminal, and his criminal family, they merited NOTHING! But they got the big funeral anyway, because of bogus “social justice”!!!!

They are all hypocrites.

If the disease was actually virulent, like Ebola, no one would go. But it is a very weak disease, weaker for most than the flu, so they scoffed at their own rules and mourned en masse.

Yet they will arrest others for going to church.

For readers of Alinksky, we should make them adhere to their own written rules!

Fauci was unmasked by Jim Jordan, and the world saw what a hypocritical fool he is.

We have at least 4 families in our church waiting to be able to hold funeral services, whenever.

A friend lost her Mother back in NJ nursing home in the first CV19 onset this year. She was cremated and her service is pending. This friend was going back in two weeks from today to hold the services. Due to the NJ isolation rules and family restrictions there, she was asked to hold off until ??????? by family friends and members.

The ruling elite continues to enjoy special privileges, even after death.

Ordinary mortals pay for it all.

My best friend dies in GA in May. There has still not been a funeral for her. Watching the John Lewis extravaganza made me livid.

.....John Lewis certainly merited a large funeral!.....

That was because of what he did in his youth!!! What he had been doing more recently was not so good.

President Trump was right not to go to his funeral, even though the (deluded) Biden supporters will call him a racist!

Remember, it is the police who did nothing to arrest or fine these politicians and those same police will arrest you or I in a second if we broke those criminal ‘laws’ put in place by criminal politicians.
