Now that the Government is Shutting Down Grocery Stores, Will the Public Finally Revolt?

Lockdowns, school closures, house arrest, cancellation of medical procedures, checkpoints… this country is starting to represent North Korea. 

Our tyrannical government has been able to scare and threaten both individuals and businesses into compliance since the pandemic started. 

At what point is enough enough?

We have gone to war for less. We started a whole new country because we wanted freedom of religion – and that’s just one of the Amendments that the Founders guaranteed us.

Right now, the government is trampling over just about ALL of our rights.

Except, of course, the rights that they are still allowing for their democratic friends. They let their democratic BLMAntifa mob to do whatever they want, pandemic or not. The criminals are still allowed to riot and commit arson under the guise of “protesting.”

President Trump decided to use the same tactic and started to call his rallies “peaceful protests.” That kept democrats from being able to shut him down.

Anything can be a peaceful protest really.

So start using it.

Do you have a business that you want to stay open? Make it a peaceful protest.

We have a Constitution and that ALWAYS overrides any BS emergency order that a state or county comes up with. I would keep my business open until the police came to haul me away in handcuffs (kicking and screaming, of course). And I would not pay any of their illegal fines either.

I would not give up my life to the government.

Why are you?

The governors and local health departments have way way way overstepped their powers to rein over us and we’re letting it happen. 

Businesses need to quit being cowards and defend their rights and livelihoods.

The oppressive democratic governors have gotten away with so much since the pandemic started that they think they are omnipotent now. They have decided that they can even close grocery stores.

In New Mexico, grocery stores in many places in the state have been forced to close [1] because of COVID-19 positive employees. 

And no, it’s not a decision made by the grocery stores.

But hey, don’t worry. We’ll be okay. Who needs baby formula or milk or bread or prescription medication? Who needs cough medicine or acetaminophen? Who needs dog or cat food? 

And I’m sure that the elderly and veterans alone in their homes without internet or smart phones to order stuff on Amazon can live on soup, snow and tree bark for a few weeks.  

And what about the food insecurity of everyone that the democrats constantly whine about? Guess that’s not an issue anymore.

Looks like the closures are mandated by the democratic Queen of New Mexico, Governor Michelle Grisham. Stores are ordered to close for the protection of public safety when the store’s staff members have an abundance of COVID-19 infections among them.

But this yahoo democratic governor has a funny way of defining the word “abundance.” Her mandate has no basis in reality because they don’t even take into consideration how many employees a business has.

The New Mexico governmental website explains that their public health order mandates that certain establishments close when they have too many COVID-19 cases. And the order isn’t just for grocery stores. It also includes food and drink establishments, retail spaces, lodging,”close-contact” businesses as defined in another health order, and other essential businesses.

Remember when the tyrants used to keep “essential businesses” open? Yes, those were the good old days.

And what does it take to get your business closed down in New Mexico? It takes four rapid responses pertaining to a business over a 14 day period. 

What is a rapid response [2]? It’s when one or more employees test positive for COVID-19. So you can have four positive tests in two weeks and you’re shut down regardless of how many employees you have.

But don’t worry. If you need to buy something, you should still be able to get food somewhere close by – or that’s what the tyrants in New Mexico are telling everyone. They say that things aren’t as bad as advertised and that there isn’t a “community in the state of New Mexico where COVID-19 closures have closed off all food and water or medicine options for any community or group of people.”

How nice of them to leave at least one place open.

But what sense does that really make in an emergency pandemic plan? Does the last business standing get to remain open regardless of how many infected workers there are? Or is the government going to have the National Guard bring in trucks of water and food?

And what about spreading the virus by making people drive from town to town to find their Twinkies, Bud Light, diapers and kale?

If civil disobedience doesn’t happen soon against these oppressive governments, we will end up with a microchip in our arm, soldiers on our streets and we’ll have to get vaccine “papers” to go from one place to another.

Wake up people. Defend yourselves and the Constitution.
