Governor Steve Bullock, who seems intent on hurting Montana’s tourism economy – which amounts to 3.7 billion dollars a year and brings in more money than both agriculture and energy – has the state’s parks on lockdown.
...
Whereas Yellowstone National Park has been opened up, only the entrances on the Wyoming side are open to travelers. Governor Bullock, insistent on protecting Montanan from economic recovery, has kept the entrances to the park on the Montana side shut.

Tyler Vance – a concrete worker from Montana – attempted to make his way to Cooke City when he was immediately followed, pulled over, questioned, and harassed by law enforcement for traveling through the area. Vance kept his calm and spoke repeatedly to the officers of tyranny and questioned their resolve to obey the Constitution. His appeals to the law were largely ignored by the officers who were intent on inhibiting his travel.

Somebody has got to do it. Somebody has got to stand up for our rights.

As Vance pled with the officer on the grounds of the Constitution, the officer said, “I agree that certain things need to change, but I don’t make the rules.”

Those arrests are invalid.
The officer probably has a table full of kids to feed. Self preservation is a powerful motivation to obey your boss.
Good little tin god Nazi cops who took an oath to protect, defend and obey our Constitution. If the cops honored that oath, they’d arrest their globalist pos governor!
You get the government you voted into office.
Bad things happen when bad choices are made.
Zombie Authoritarians with a badge? Is that what they have been turned into? Montana was invaded by liberals a long time ago and it shows.
Lots of lawyers are going to have tons of work because of all the unconstitutional crap going on.
If Mr. Vance thinks that anyone in the Government with the exception of President Trump gives a damn about our Rights, he is in for a rude awakening.
Beartooth Pass is open?
How’s the off road skiing?
Montana gov Bullock’s unconstitutional shut-down closes churches / exempts abortion clinics killing babies and drug dealers selling pot ..
Bullock is a lawyer and was adjunct professor at the George Washington University .. the Democrat never had a real job ..

If things break bad in this country there will be special “Nuremburg” type trials for these dog shooting order followers...them and their order givers.
I think it is criminal that federal, state and local entities would put LEOs in this position.

In recent weeks, we have heard stories of cops arresting parents for playing with their kids in a park, shooing elderly people off of a beach, arresting a woman for organizing a protest and dumping bags of nails in church driveways. If this sort of stuff keeps up, it will be conservatives who chant "pigs in a blanket! Fry 'em like bacon!"
We are definitely in a police state now- the lawsuits that are gonna fly will tie up courts for decades-
