Comrades, a shop owner in North Carolina has been given a citation by local COVID Compliance Authorities for non-compliant signage in their store allowing previously free-range citizens to enter the establishment without masks.
If the promotion of respiratory freedom, by free and independent citizens in a private commercial building, is now a violation of the COVID regulations; well, how long before that intrusive citation applies inside your private residence. Think about it…
WENDELL, N.C. — A North Carolina store owner has been cited for encouraging customers NOT to wear masks in her store. Police said the signs violate Gov. Roy Cooper’s mask-wearing order, which was imposed to preserve public health during the coronavirus pandemic.
Wendell General Store owner Regina Harmon was cited Wednesday with one count of aiding and abetting the violation of an executive order, news outlets reported.
Wendell police received a complaint that Harmon’s store posted signs stating: “Masks not required, exceptions to every rule” and “We request that you not wear a face covering, for the safety of our customers and staff.”
Wendell Police Chief Bill Carter said officers investigated and cited Harmon after consulting with the Wake County District Attorney’s Office. (link)
The Wendell General Store has a website [SEE HERE] it is a good thing to stand with them and express your support. Letting people know they are not alone is a very critical component to overwhelming the authoritarian state. Support and fellowship is key.
Many people talk of a foreboding sense. A sense that something is very close to erupting on the surface. I believe, and have said for months, the eruption will come as a result of overreach by control authority in reference to COVID dictates. We are very close.
The power of government comes from the people; or as we say in the U.S. “from the consent of the governed.” When the people lead, the politicians are forced to follow.
Without implied consent the municipal or state government has no power. None.
As a result, the nonsense ends when the majority of We The People no longer give our consent.
How do We The People retract our consent? We simply refuse to comply.
When the majority of people simply refuse to comply with unilateral dictates, and laugh in the faces of those who attempt to enforce them, the government no longer has power.
If one person refuses to comply, the government or control authority can, and likely will, intervene. However, if tens of thousands rebuke these unconstitutional decrees, there isn’t a damn thing govt can do to stop it… and they know it. A non-compliant snowball becomes an unstoppable freedom avalanche.
Local, regional and state officials know they can control the behavior of an individual. If one barber shop opens, the owner becomes a target. However, those officials also know they cannot control the behavior of the majority. If every barber shop and beauty salon in town opens… there is absolutely nothing the government can do about it.
If one restaurant and/or bar opens, the state can target the owner. But if every bar and restaurant in town opens; and if everyone ignores and dispatches the silly dictates of the local, regional or state officials; there isn’t a damned thing they can do about it.
The power of the local, regional or state authority comes from the expressed consent of the people. As soon as the majority of people in that municipality deny that consent, those officials and state authoritarians lose all of their power.
Yes, it really is that simple.
They want you to think otherwise, but it is not true. If WE THE PEOPLE demand freedom and stand together the control authority is useless.
Those who construct the systems of control need to weaponize fear. Fear of arrest; fear of losing a business; fear of losing liberty or financial security. Local, regional and state officials rely on fear. As soon as the people are no longer fearful, the control ends.
The overwhelming majority of dictates around COVID-19 mitigation are not laws. There was no debate; no input from representative government; and no option for the public to weigh-in on the decisions.
All unilateral rules are arbitrary, and despite many proclamations to the contrary, they rely upon voluntary compliance. As soon as citizens no longer voluntarily comply, the term of the rules has expired. If masks are so effective then why didn’t government give masks to prisoners, instead of releasing the inmates?
Liberty is inherent.
The removal of liberty requires consent.
..”If the public are bound to yield obedience to laws to which they cannot give their approbation, they are slaves to those who make such laws and enforce them.”..
~Sam Adams
Remember that, and think carefully about it.
I’ve often heard people express the optimistic view that, in the event of a civil war, the police would side with the constitutionalists.
I think the majority will side with whoever signs their paychecks.
Auwtsnae,
Unfortunately you are probably more correct than you may realize.
Feed the crocodiles, hope to be the one eaten.
The mask has become the new Gessler’s Hat.
Exactly, Hitler couldn’t have done what he did without his civil servants. We have Way too many willing to taze a woman for sitting outside in the bleachers watching kids play sports. It’s easy to talk a big game, another to be facing large fines and/or time in prison with a family to feed with an obedient civil servant ready to taze you or worse.
“The Wendell General Store … it is a good thing to stand with them and express your support. … Support and fellowship is key.”
I think that is the “Remember the Alamo”, bottom-line statement.
“Remember the A La Mode Review” > principia-scientific > Dealey Plaza rally for Shelley Luther on May 9, 2020 where Don’t Tread on Me photo was taken
“Last Waltz Across Texas” > principia-scientific > illegal executive order and four RINOs responsible
“Stay Home, Mask and Otherwise Be Safe” ORDER for city of Austin and Travis County through Dec 15, 2020 at AustinTexas.gov > NO protests at fascist Abbott mansion
Hearing on Hart InterCivic and ES&S vote rigging machines Aug 15, 2016 > Abbott, Patrick, Paxton did nothing about vote fraud
I hope they will put up an online catalog so people can support them from other places. NC has a NoKomo/Nagsome type governor. About the only good thing that’s happened is that he got his hand slapped for encouraging the judge to strike down the Constitutional Amendment requiring voter ID in NC.
Someone needs to check on Herr Cooper’s ballots. There may have been hanky and panky in the guv race there!
True!
Live in NC and about 1.5 hrs away from this store. Gov MARCHED with BLM/ANTIFA in Raleigh unmasked and then that crowd rioted, looted and destroyed downtown Raleigh that night and many biz still boarded up or closed from nights of destruction.
Gov Photo’d on Nov 13 with a large crowd, ALL UNMASKED at a political gathering…Took mega selfies w/ ‘his supporters’…again UNMASKED..
And lastly, WHO was the main attraction on Wed IN ATLANTA for the 2 Dem Senate candidates, at a luncheon. NONE OTHER THAN NC Gov….same Gov that has publicly and outwardly criticized Ga for BEING OPEN…
He’s the biggest hypocrite but he is a Soros-appointee and gets big $$$ from Soros..He’s a Biden supporter and comes across as this southern Barney Fife….quite the contrary. Will cut your throat and HIS INTENTIONALLY punishes biz and people in NC….he’s a mad man…and typical Dem/Lib that punishes…
Let me further state, in my small town, ONLY Wal-Mart and Lowe’s could open for months in early 2020. All small biz were closed. WM and Lowe’s RAKED IN $$$ mega $$$$ being the only 2 biz open.
Lowe’s hasn’t been that dogmatic on masks since summer. HOWEVER, last Sat I dropped by and there was a young lady at the door “ENFORCING” masks…..with a huge billboard w/ Gov’s proclamation…
I IMMEDIATELY TURNED, left and won’t ever walk back in. DONE WITH LOWE’S….
Drove to a nearby city that has hardware stores privately owned and will use them in the future. DONE With Lowe’s….
That is what I see as well… all the small businesses are closed down and the mega stores are raking in all the cash. I have always supported local small businesses, and continue, but many are shuttered for good thanks to Maine’s Heir Govna
Think about it guys. Are large stores the globalists selling cheap goods from China or are they the America firsters? You know the answer. Are the small businesses likely to be Globalists or the MAGA s? That’s why a Soros puppet closes Mon and Pop and lets Walmart and Leows cash in. America is sinking into socialist totalitarianism
I also live in NC and I seriously question the validity of Cooper’s re-election. His race was called practically as soon as polls closed, but Trump was not declared the winner for days afterwards although he won NC by 70k votes. Cooper is absolutely the worst governor we’ve ever had.
Co0per became governor via a LOT of questionable ballots from Durham’s “inner city” (including Duke academia)
You are so right
That’s why the people that sign the checks will be the first to go.
Maybe not the first QM, but a close second. Numero Uno would be the propagandists of the airwaves, primarily in television.

As we have seen demonstrated across the nation, the po-po is NOT our friend. And regrettably, most of them will–as you say–choose a paycheck over integrity.
Take that to the bank.
Seeing how they operate their tools, you don’t want them on your team anyway.
You are correct.
The military as well.
I would not be so sure on this one.
More cannon fodder for Patriots. You’re either FOR AMERICA or AGAINST NO in between.
That clearly depends on if you live in rural America, or the big cities. We have seen daily how Law Enforcement has been arresting people in the cities but Sheriffs and Chiefs of Police in rural areas are refusing.
Agree. I personally know our Sheriff, as do many others in our Parish and you can bet he wouldn’t even waste his resources supporting this tyranny. Besides, the Registrar of Voters is a block or two away from the Sheriff’s office and our people would respond accordingly, if necessary. In other words, rural areas like us are very close knit and connected.
Absolutely. These days it doesn’t matter what state you live in, what really matters is what county you live in. For example this is where I live in Washington State.
Thank you!
Sadly, I agree.
Absolutely!
LIke!
The easiest way to attack the government slug is to work only a a private contractor and use a 1099 form annually. The system cannot survive without weekly drafts from your paycheck. Then file extensions etc. The slug has to have your money or print paper.
I agree that they will side with self preservation.
Several years ago I attended a prepper type meeting. I was curious. A local sheriff made the statement that he was not bothering to plan ahead or prepare because he could take from the citizens anything he needed at any point he needed supplies.
That was the last and only meeting of that type that I attended.
Sorry, somehow my comment got posted under the wrong thread.
@Auwtsnae
The COVID lockdowns prove you’re right. There are too many cops who will trample on your constitutional rights for a buck.
That’s why cops should be held accountable like anyone else in authority.
Epic Trump. And this is so true

@Paca
And this is why he’s calling out Republicans who just accept election fraud.
These tiny tyrants are drunk on their power. Masks are a symbol of control. Most people have been conditioned (this is a recent phenomenon IMO) to give away a little freedom for perceived safety. The tyranny is shrouded in a fear that f you do not comply you will be hurting your loved ones or your neighbors. These “rulers” are from both the left and the right sadly. RESIST!
You are so right, its time to take of the masks
The “Mask Wearers” will have a black friday Stampede to get their Good Comrade WuFu Shots.
They justly deserve everything that comes with it.
KAG,
You explain well this dynamic of fear and submission.
Now let’s look at the dynamic which accentuates and accelerates the vicious cycle of fear and submission until they inevitably end in a state of captivity.
In a system of free enterprise, citizens face a reality of expanding opportunities, options, and increasing wealth. This system accentuates and accelerates man’s sense of freedom, and mobility. There are fewer financial pressures that could cloud moral judgement, or that would induce citizens into conspiracies of silence for fear of retaliation in the face of corruption and criminality.
In a socialist system, citizens face dwindling opportunities for employment and survival. Moral concessions and corruption thus become endemic, and people’s goal is simply securing their next meal. And, both in a critical and tragic sense, in a world where everybody is corrupt, no one has moral authority except the hypocritically pure and moral totalitarian State.
The sad truth is that Draconian mask requirements could very easily become generalized ad infinitum from this point forward at the hands of socialists. Covid does not have to be the motive. I would also surmise that for Justice John Roberts (our weakest of defenders against totalitarianism), a blanket mask requirement in the United States hence forth in order to reduce the general incidence of illness and death would probably not raise constitutional red flags just as long as it doesn’t target individual groups and that it seek to improve the general welfare. Roberts might also reason, hypothetically, that citizens, under our ’empowering’ constitution, would, if they didn’t want to don a mask, always retain the right to stay out of public places, being a free country and all!
That such hypothetical pronouncements could so easily flow from his pen is chilling!
I would be surprised if this happened in South Dakota.
Just saying…
I doubt it will. We have too many that will not tolerate this as I live in SD.
From today’s reading in My Utmost for His Highest by Oswald Chambers:
Life without war is impossible in the natural or the supernatural realm. It is a fact that there is a continuing struggle in the physical, mental, moral, and spiritual areas of life.
Health is the balance between the physical parts of my body and all the things and forces surrounding me. To maintain good health I must have sufficient internal strength to fight off the things that are external. Everything outside my physical life is designed to cause my death. The very elements that sustain me while I am alive work to decay and disintegrate my body once it is dead. If I have enough inner strength to fight, I help to produce the balance needed for health. The same is true of the mental life. If I want to maintain a strong and active mental life, I have to fight. This struggle produces the mental balance called thought.
Morally it is the same. Anything that does not strengthen me morally is the enemy of virtue within me. Whether I overcome, thereby producing virtue, depends on the level of moral excellence in my life. But we must fight to be moral. Morality does not happen by accident; moral virtue is acquired.
And spiritually it is also the same. Jesus said, “In the world you will have tribulation…” (John 16:33). This means that anything which is not spiritual leads to my downfall. Jesus went on to say, “…but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” I must learn to fight against and overcome the things that come against me, and in that way produce the balance of holiness. Then it becomes a delight to meet opposition.
Holiness is the balance between my nature and the law of God as expressed in Jesus Christ.
No, that “everything is fighting” is unbalanced too.
Here’s the Truth: EVERYTHING WAS DESIGNED. EVERYTHING.
And here is the kicker, to make sense of that: IT WAS DESIGNED TO GET YOU TO LEARN
…including learning what, when, where how and why to fight…
“Health is the balance between the physical parts of my body and all the things and forces surrounding me.”
Think about all those seniors in nursing homes who may have kept their physical health because of their lockdowns but lost their lives out of sheer loneliness. The governments were quick to come in with virtual schooling but never came out of the box with virtual family visits. Why not? Could it be the Zeke Emmanuel theory? You know, no one over age 75 has real value. To be sure Beijing Biden has to have heard that. Then again, they may have him in the same news blackout on this policy that they have most of the USA on the election fraud and the evidence presented at the hearings. Wonder what ole Joe will say when they inform him that his life is neither needed nor wanted? Heil Harris! That’s what they want. Be careful what you wish for. You just might get it–up the rear and without a beer!
I am calling on all fellow Treepers to support Danville Christian Academy v. Andrew Beshear at SCOTUS this week. It may seem like one insignificant case among many, but the implications for religious liberty in the face of public health restrictions are great. Thank you.
See you at the Capital Protest tomorrow!
I live in Union County, NC a RED county and am seeing a compliance rate of 90%+ inside stores. It looks to me that the fight against this wielding of power is over. Interesting that this citation was done in a non-chain store. Was in one yesterday and right at the front door there was a man packing out merchandise w/o a mask and another employee in an aisle doing the same w/o a mask. Even a checkout clerk was mask less and the other had her mask on improperly. About 75% of the store customers were still wearing mask, have they no shame?
Sadly, we are becoming conditioned to the No mask, No entry philosophy. Why do you think they only allowed the big box stores to remain open at the beginning of the plandemic? They were so much easier to control because they had literally billions at stake. You know they were told early and often that if they didn’t force the mask mandate then they faced the fate of the mom and pop stores.
I think this is an appropriate place to reference an opening statement type of report from Reiner Fuellmich. This is 49 minutes long but well worth the listen. The first lawsuit has just been filed in Germany. This completely reveals the inappropriate use of the PCR test.

It bears repeating…..

I cannot wear a mask, I did once on a visit to AL where it is a State Mandate (unlike GA. where I live). Wearing a Mask is Degrading, Submissive, like something done to control animals.
I sent a message of support to the Wendell General Store. We need more people like this to “walk the talk”.
Like
I did as well.
Rarely do I hear people rebuke the Constitution aberration created by provisions of the 1964 civil rights act. People who would otherwise say that Twitter has every right to exclude anyone from its service for any reason silently approve of the laws that redefined public accommodation to include all private business and irreparably damaged a natural right of free association which is the basis of what makes a society what it is. We are now reaping the whirlwind of letting this antithesis of Plessy stand and we now allow government to decide what business can and can’t do… sometimes with the implied protection of the government. Currently there are calls by black business owners to be black owned and operated; a natural provision of business I would have thought, an black student demanding black only accommodations at universities… redlining much? If the right really cares about the Constitution, why does it not scream about this aberration to the constitution just as blacks did about Plessy v Ferguson? By allowing this ‘greater good’ concept to stand, we have created business that is so powerful as to exclude the political and social proclivities of the population as voting with your feet get harder and harder, especially now that the Covid police are talking about state issued papers to prove your acceptance to society at large.
Does anyone really think these SOB’s gave a damn about black people other than to use them for their own power?
Signing of the 1964 Civil Rights Act
No. I remember what LBJ said about that!
@Scott
Years ago, Sen. Rand Paul took a TON of flack for bringing up how private business was negatively impacted by the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
Now, he’s vindicated as the Act is now used by the Left to punish businesses that won’t make gay wedding cakes or enforce mask mandates.
Precisely. My point is that I don’t hear the people who talk about the constitution the most ever pounding the table over this bit of constitutional jujitsu and further expanding the ‘original intent’ of the commerce clause. As sDee said above; we know why they did what they did but the outrage never seemed to motivate anyone. I too have caught flak repeatedly when talking about this because it would seem that many on the right fall for the ‘greater good’ BS
History has shown the greatest warriors were the ones that felt they had nothing left to lose.
Looks like a wonderful and enchanting place to shop and visit.
They are doing a Community Food Drive at the moment.

Zero doubt that Cooper specifically targeted a Wendell county store selling Christmas gifts and decorations.
Wendell is in Wake County. The county commission and Sheriff are full blown Marxists. King’ Coopers mansion is there. Wake County is the hive turning NC blue. Wake County is mostly bedroom communities for affluent employees dependents of State government, BigTech,and Big Pharma which run the city county and state government. Most people living there love State Central because most are damn wealthy barbecue because because of it. The rest are too afraid of losing everything to say anything.
I avoid Wake County but will head over and buy some gifts from this country store.

RTP has DRAWN thousands and thousands of Midwest, northern carpetbaggers…Apex, Wendell, Cary, Zebulon and those small towns/cities outside Raleigh ARE FILLED with non-NC citizens and they are VOTING BLUE…..
That’s what happened to Virginia and Colorado. And it’s not just voting Democrat. They start to demand that you change street, school names. In Virginia, we’ve had people from Maryland and New York go to county government and demand that private homes and farms not be allowed to display confederate flags or memorabilia because it embarrasses them.
I’m in Maryland. Tell them to go back home if they find it embarrassing!!!! TOO BAD!!!!! God bless you!!! Stand up for your home!!!
“….small towns/cities outside Raleigh ARE FILLED with non-NC citizens and they are VOTING BLUE…..”
Umm? Isn’t that a felony? Any way you, and patriot friends can research and expose this?
Hate to say it folks, but we’ve been asleep at the wheel for quite awhile, and we have some serious catching up to do!!!!
As a former Tarheel
There are far too many “Wake Counties” in NC.
It went for President Trump, and even rinoe Tillis, but re-sElected Cooper???
and GA went for Hiden Biden???
Strange Times, Comrades; as the 4 year Coup attempt continues unabated
Crazy, isn’t it? And in ‘16 there were thousands of mysterious late-arriving votes that gave the win to Cooper, who was prepared to move into the mansion with help from Perkins-Coie! He shut down NC this year – no graduations, no weddings (open briefly for his daughter’s wedding), no funerals, no school, limited church worship – and people voted for President Trump but STILL wanted Cooper to stay in the mansion? It defies logic.
“Wake County is mostly bedroom communities for affluent employees dependents of State government, BigTech,and Big Pharma which run the city county and state government.”
That, right there folks is our problem. Too much government, too much big tech, and too much big pharma. We have A LOT OF WORK TO DO!!!!
I wrote yesterday under a different topic: I wonder more and more whether in my 7th decade I will need to make a Life or Death decision about the future of a bureaucrat, official, officer, or soldier intent on obeying and enforcing an unconstitutional ukase to take away my freedom!
Such people will have made their decisions…and then I will need to make mine!
I reside in NC..
I refuse, to consent, *&%# Cooper & his mandates.
Either, I refuse to do “business” (voting w/my wallet) or tell those to “call the LEO”, I WILL NOT consent. To a NON~effective Face diaper..
Eff’em w/a Rusty chain saw, or throw them into a Wood chipper set of “slow mode”..
indeed
I kind of like the wood chipper idea. Have to confess that this week, I know!
I live 15 minutes from this store and go in about once a week. I often talk politics with Regina. She is a true patriot and loves President Trump. She was a volunteer poll watcher during the election and has been attending some of the stop the steal protests. Please pray for her and send her messages of support.
Wake County is the only place in NC besides Charlotte where I have been challenged by a business for not wearing a mask. It always goes something like this…
employee – “You cannot be in here without a mask.”
I am unable to wear a mask
employee – “Sorry you cannot come in here. ”
Get your manager
manager – “You cannot be in here without a mask”
I am unable to wear a mask and you know you cannot ask me why.
manager – “OK”
———————–
Only time it went further was at a church service in uberleft Asheville NC. They decided they had to “accommodate” us to avoid mass hysteria among the liberal lemmings. We got red carpet treatment 🙂
I can’t wear a mask either. I limit my shopping, but the grocery stores I usually go to I’ve had zero problem, with staff. The occasional offer of a mask from an employee (store) but when I say thanks but I can’t wear one it’s dropped.
Other shoppers? At least one confrontation a trip, I’m just polite, say I can’t and it’s OK. If they push and get close, I ask them to please stay 6 feet away. Then they end up talking to a manager who informs them that I’m following PA’s rules.
I’m a regular and have made a point of learning names and greet many staff by name, from far enough away that they know I’m not reading their name tag.
The tyrants can’t really get their message out (about killing the chicken to scare the livestock into submission) without a compliant propaganda arm. Local word of mouth isn’t going to accomplish what they need; they need cooperating mouthpieces.
Rhetorically now, what happens when someone starts taking their genuflecting press out of the game, and it becomes a “not recommended” practice to repeat & broadcast the regime’s message? What if they report an action taken to make an example of someone and no one picks up the press release and re-broadcasts it?
My son is going to school in Raleigh right now. Wendell is about 20 miles east of where he lives. I’m going to ask him to get me something from the store for Christmas.
As Wendell General Store owner Regina Harmon is obviously doing a political protest, why is she not afforded the same exceptions as any other political protest?
I wish Ms. Harmon had added these words to her sign (hindsight is 20/20, of course):
“This is my peaceful protest in accordance with the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.”
I live about 30 minutes from Wendell. I think I’ll go for a nice drive, enjoy the view of what’s left of our beautiful fall leaves and pick me up some North Carolina pickles.
UPDATE: I just got back from the Wendell General Store. The store was packed. They are thrilled with the support that they are receiving. The line was 6-7 people deep. I spoke to everyone in line. People came from all over. One gentleman drove three hours from New Bern, NC. I told them they should make a tally as to where we all heard about them from.
I just called the store and left a message telling her how proud I was of her and that I lived in North Carolina and I never wore a mask but I don’t know how long I’ll be able to do that without getting arrested. I congratulated her for being so brave
I sent one as well
Great to know that all crime and other public safety issues in Wendell NC have been resolved, so that Sheriff Karen can crack down on this first amendment expression of dissent.
I suppose the business owner forgot to post their pro-BLM signs.
This is what happens when we elect a democrat to be governor. SMH
The question to ask these days is, did we elect a democrat on Nov. 3?
He was not elected….he stole it the first time with ballot harvesting this time who needs that, just flip the votes. He is an illegitimate pretend governor.
Remember that all Sheriffs in NC are ELECTED. Make sure the Sheriff knows he is going to be opposed HUGELY.
I moved to rural NC where our sheirff will not enforce illegal dictates.
However city police chiefs are appointed by marxist mayors. Even though NC is a Dillon rule state, the cites and towns exert authority not granted to them. If NC legislature would crack down on Dillion rule status, things would change here dramatically.
It is important to add that the “stand together” part entails the People not allowing the “authorities“ to separate any one of us for arrest or citation. If the authorities are told to arrest and or force anyone from running their business or going about their day enjoying their First Amendment Right of free association, a crowd of every nearby Citizen needs to surround said authorities and calmly but assertively let them know that they will not be allowed to deny the individual’s Rights.
THEN we have the power we enjoy as Sovereign Citizens.
Thanks SD. It is extremely important for you and those like you to inform us of this sort of abuse. Can’t do a lot for the store, but did send a message of support. Again, extremely important for those of us reading this, to let the store (and therefor each of us) know we are there to support–
Sadly and unfortunately for Most American families, there will be some Violence in their homes over COVID stupidity. I know I have several that will bow to COVID compliance if they show up at our door. I see no way around dispatching them if SHTF and protecting ones self and those they KNOW are not Indoctrinate by the World and it’s ignorance of what is Important. My kids and my in laws I know would call on someone if I were not here to check them so long as I was aware of it anyway. Not because they are unpatriotic, but because they fell into the Pit that God warns about in the Bible. Sadly They do not Read the bible or ANY books, just that 5″ screen that controls everything they do.
I am sure there are plenty of folks like me with dumb family members that are more of a liability if SHTF than a help.
The Police ARE NOT YOUR FRIENDS OR FAMILY!!! They are OWNED by whatever city they work for PERIOD. I feel the worst for people with Police as family
When police will standby as looters, rioters and violent criminals destroy law abiding citizens while they arrest and harass business owners and patrons, this clearly demonstrates it’s all about the money. They’ll do whatever they are ordered, hoping to get to the early retirements that taxpayers are forced to fund. There is no honor there, guide yourself accordingly. Antifa or you, you will be on your own or worse.
In a city where the bureaucrats wouldn’t stop looting or rioting and crime much of it violent out of control. What a disgrace for this amount of law enforcement dedicated to persecuting law abiding citizens. Yes something must erupt.
If the rank-and-file police were honorable, they would stop issuing traffic citations in any municipality with Covid-19 restrictions. In service of “social distancing” of course.
Wendell is one town over from where we live. We have gone into the Wendell General Store many times. I will make a stop there tomorrow!!!
I shop in Lancaster, PA a lot. Price, selection and attitude are comfortable, which draws me back.
One place I go that is in a high traffic tourist area has a hand drawn sign on their entrance door.
PLEASE
wear a face mask
while shopping in our market
THANK YOU very much!
If you don’t, we’ll
assume you have a
medical condition.
They don’t want to deal with ‘Karen’s’ bugging them because someone doesn’t have a mask on. The Amish are an independent lot and not all of them comply with Gov. Wolf’s order.
PA does have a medical reason for not wearing a mask.
I like that they don’t even mention the Government order… but acknowledge it sort of passive aggressively. Staff are wearing a mixture of masks and face shields and they have put up some hanging partitions so that no one is breathing on staff at checkout.
I worked in an ER for over 25 years. At least 3 times a year we had in-services on the importance of HIPPA laws. Violations of this medical privacy act have led to many terminations in the medical field from physicians, administrators to clinical staff to housekeeping.
I use this to shut anybody down if they tell me to wear a mask. Sorry, no can do, I say, medical condition.
When I am approached to wear a mask, which in Virginia is usually every time I go to buy something or go indoors(the latest is a museum in Richmond, a nasty young man who looked as if he stepped right out of the Nazi Youth Party),told me I had to leave unless I wore a mask. Sorry, can’t do it. I quickly produced a hard copy of the HIPPA law which means I do not have to tell them what my medical condition is. No problem after that.
So sick of this. Northam is not running this state. McAuliffe, and his Clinton/Soros Marxists along with their puppets are running the show.
flova, I’m just very polite, and repeat myself a lot.
I know this is picky, but it’s HIPAA. I’ve gotten called on it (not here) nastily and the way I remember is it’s AA… is that the people who act oh so superior about it would drive anyone to drink.

My son’s friend is a police officer in a major city. I can tell you she’s a lovely person but she will do what her superiors tell her to do and since her superiors are all in for the Democrat governor and BLM Mayor, she will follow orders.
you should be banned for this type of talk, but I’ll leave it to the authorities to decide….
You should all call Chief Carter and rat out mask scofflaws in your locality too. One cannot be too careful or too safe !!!

All good points, but as we have witnessed time and again during covid, any push back to these mask mandates, lock downs, etc. does absolutely no good. We are all being herded toward that “gas chamber” funded by Gates, Soros, Rockefeller, Fauci, Ford Foundation, etc.
I think we have to come up with some action that all 73+ million voters participate in at the same time.
I am against mask wearing, social distancing, lock downs, and vaccinations/cards. However, I do not see individually going to jail for flaunting these mandates solves anything. With exception of Trump, practically every representative whether city, state, or Federal no longer care what the general populace thinks or wants. They are all paid off and have been for some time. They no longer fear the public. Look at the fact that Republicans are not backing Trump. Republicans that he personally drug across the finish line. Think back to the financial crisis of 2008 where overwhelming numbers of citizens contacted their representatives to say Hell No to the massive stimulus packages being passed. Did it make any difference???? NO it did not.
We have to find a way to take their pay day, perks and power away from them. The only thing lately that seems to worry them is Trump rallies, but that is not enough.
We are still only reacting to the fear mongering, etc that the Dems push upon us. We have to take back control and start dictating to them. There has to be a creative person out there with good ideas to put forth. Anyone???
We have seen that looting, rioting, taking over police stations etc. works but you need large enough numbers. Most here haven’t been raised that way, we pay our way, respect property rights etc. So not sure we could get the numbers required. Unfortunately the dictators take advantage of the fact that they can ride herd on the law abiding. It’s in their calculations that we will behave, and if not they have the police, intelligence agents and Antifa. Regretfully, nice guys finish last.
I agree. So what is the answer? How do we bring about change without breaking the law?
Aren’t WE the law? Don’t these supposed, “lawmakers” work for us? We have to have a NATIONAL UNMASK DAY, at least!!!! Make it, UNMASK MONTH!!!!
Yep, they could pass a law that all conservatives must get in the boxcar, explicitly state it is for them to be killed, and the sheepish, fox watching, law abiding conservatives would still comply.
We’d escort the women and children first, mindlessly thinking it’s the polite thing to do. Is it any wonder they’ve stolen an election right before our eyes. Their approach is always, what are you going to do about it. Because they know the answer. Nothing. Tik tok, white hats will save us.
How about a national unmask day, where EVERYONE takes off their mask, permanently, on the same day? Coordinate it on mewe.com instead of big tech.
Try going to some of the conservative radio hosts, post it to Parler, get it out with Don Jr., or Eric?
Just do an end run around the big tech/msm.
What do you all think?
It sounds interesting, but again we are individually taking the chance that more than 10 people will participate in your area in the same place you are unmasking.
It is my understanding that acting legislators cannot be sued. However, are we able to make citizen arrests of the McConnell, Graham, Barr types?
AJ—Could anyone get close enough to make a citizen’s arrest? Seriously?
You are right, I doubt it anyone could get close. I just through the comment out there. There has to be some actionable way to take back our government. We have to find some way to stop the Dems from dictating the conversation. Weisman types are literally making up new laws against us every day.
If I had any good ideas I would post them. I am so happy CTH is out there. Many intelligent commenters here. That being said, it has to go beyond the written point to real action. I love having the information available to digest, but nobody out there is offering real solutions.
It would be great for POTUS to mention some actionable items, but I am sure it would cause him all kinds of issues.
Too bad POTUS wouldn’t mention it off the cuff at a Rally or two or three!!!! How about that idea?
How many here have sent a message to that store, like I just did, suggesting that she get a high school student to quickly install Web Commerce on her site? And that this would help fund her Legal Suit for unlawful overreach by the guberment?
You cannot wake up the masses without sunlight. Amazing how far they are reaching so fast. They don’t even try to hide their agenda and no, it’s not going to end well for many.
What’s the size of the virus vs. what’s the size / weave of a generic “mask”, or even a custom fitted apparatus used in clean rooms?
I’d imagine the comparison would show the guvner’s order capricious and not based on any actual, reasonable standard and certainly not enough to encroach on civil rights / compel a mask of servitude again, and again
Common sense, science, the law, what’s that when you have benevolent dictators.
The state of California warned residents during the wildfires that their masks were ineffective to stop smoke inhalation because smoke particles were too small and would pass through masks. Guess what is smaller than a smoke particle?
BINGO!!!!
I copied and posted this article to Parler. I hope that’s okay. I just want to get the word out!!!
In relation to this Wuhan virus scare, here’s an interesting article from LifeSiteNews:
https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/doctor-calls-faucis-demand-for-mass-covid-vaccinations-utter-nonsense
More negative Pfizer vaccine info. When will government finally say out loud that these studies have all been fake and there is no real vaccine. That it is all a rouse and conn!
We have endured months of incoherent study stats from Moderna, Pfizer, etc.

It is all just to exhaust the public and create continuous chaos.
This is what is happening in the county I live in. The numbers of people pushing back at these county committee meetings have been increasing. As you can read in the link, the commissioners could care less. Eilert has been in power for so long that he no longer listens to the public on any subject.
https://sentinelksmo.org/joco-eliminates-public-comment-for-dec-3-meeting/?fbclid=IwAR3eOFtKVBHce28M6mNBgLMy7d5dMuqA593mCnwpuXYQfK5Cvb1kerWE_G8
Additionally, the JOCO Commission is back to trying to oust the public from the meetings. Remember when this same tactic was being instituted around the country in reference to Obamacare!
“Johnson County commissioners will not permit verbal public comment at their next board meeting. Instead, the commission will meet by Zoom on Dec. 3. Members will accept written comments that will be added to the public record, but not read aloud during the meeting.”
Most NC residents do not realize that Cooper defeated Governor McCrory because he literally hired McCrae Dowless to ballot harvest in Bladen County.
He is a crook.
I do not believe he won this time either…all red state except him? No way; I consider him a fraud and illegitimate pretender to the throne.
The picture of the law-enforcement arm of the oppressive government goons immediately invoked the images of brown shirted National Socialist Party goons enforcing the closing of Jewish businesses back in 1933. Because in fact there’s very little distinction between what we see here in 2020 from the pictures taken in 1933 Germany. Too many ‘good Germans’ then, too many today who choose to go-along to get along. Don’t bother to look up the original meaning of what a ‘good German’ meant to an Allied Soldier in 1945 either. The original meaning has been expunged by the current Ministries of Truth.
A restaurant in my area announced on fb and window signage that they would assume anyone not wearing a mask had a medical problem and would never ask out of privacy concerns for the customer. They were attacked on fb by Karen but the business is thriving.
LOVE IT !!!!
Some interesting information for folks.
