Democrat tyrant Gavin Newsom and other officials shut down 4th of July festivities in California due to a ‘surge in Coronavirus cases.’

Newsom closed down beaches, bars, restaurants and museums, but his winery, Plumpjack Winery in Napa Valley is still open for business.

Californians revolted and celebrated anyway by lighting up the sky with thousands of illegal fireworks.

Aerial footage over Los Angeles was a sight to see.

There were fireworks being launched in every direction!

Nothing like some nice IN YOUR FACE to our failed elected officials. Keep it up!!

Traditionally, the fireworks usually happen after the war is over, not just before it begins.

My favorite Orwellian quote from some politician (wish I could remember which one):

“Celebrate freedom by staying home”

I like the response from the citizenry. But they will STILL VOTE DEM in the next election and for the foreseeable future.

“Illegal” fireworks? Don’t they mean undocumented?

We shall see.

Even Weiner’s deep blue district voted in a republican.

In our little town east of Dallas, our city council decided to stick with the fireworks planned. Actually, they usually fire them off the night before (city employees need the holiday) - this year, we had TWO nights of fireworks!!

I will be sending an email to the Mayor thanking her for the excellent decision!

Another important aspect of the California citizen is that even if they move to Texas or wherever peace reigns, they’ll take their leftist politics with them.

Undocumented.

We figured that’s what it was last night.

I live outside of LA - fireworks started up before the sun went down and continued for a good two hours after that, solid. Professional level, not kiddy stuff. We couldn’t see much b/c of the foothills but we sure hear it.

DH found some old “safe and sane” fireworks and we lit those up in the yard for a little July 4th bling.

I’ll be damned if the 4th of July is ever canceled.

My cat hates The 4th of July, almost, as much as thunder storms.

I live in a very small town. The village cancelled the fireworks this year. Some nice lady, with deep pockets bought the fireworks for us, and a local bar/restaurant sponsored it. The show went on as scheduled. We didn’t take no guff over the 4th of July parade either, which the village hall also cancelled. We had a 4th of July protest instead. The police even joined in.

The goal of the leftist terrorist BLM, Anti-fa and others is now obvious. We are in the middle of the beginning of a revolution.

These groups along with the Democrats and the media have the direct intent of overthrowing the government, taking control and enslaving everyone who disagrees with them. They have brought it to the point of armed conflict. The ONLY way to stop them is to arrest (shoot them if forced to do so) them when they riot/loot/assault people/block roads or highways or call for revolution with marching armed groups and they KNOW it. Failure to act NOW to stop all of this with an emergency order for EVERYONE to stand down is going to lead to a civil war.

FAILURE to arrest them en masse, or if necessary shoot them to put down the revolution means, it's on. The Democrats THINK they will be in control when it's all over, but they won't even be running the show. It will be some despotic leftist (black or white) who ends up on top and God help whoever opposes him/her. Bookmark this post.

To be fair, cats hate pretty much everything except food, water, a clean litter box, and staff members who will pet them at will.

I don’t think this was political as much as it is Mexicans like their fireworks.

They’ll still vote hook or crook for Dems.

I agree. I live in California. And as the Mexican population increases the illegal fireworks have gotten worse and worse each year. This year was more or less just like every other year where I live.
