Californians Defy Gov. Newsom Curfew Order, Flood Streets in 16 Cities
Breitbart ^ | 11.23.2020 | Penny Starr

Posted on 11/23/2020 3:33:02 AM PST by USA Conservative

Thousands of people in 16 California cities took to the streets on Saturday to protest Gov. Gavin Newsom’s curfew order requiring people to stay at home after 10 p.m. Carrying Trump/Pence flags and “Open up California” banners, the crowds began to gather at 10:01 p.m., including in Huntington Beach and San Clemente.

“Governor Newsom’s sweeping edicts by moving 95 percent of California to purple tier and a curfew is an abuse of power,” Syndie Ly, who helped organize the protest and was on the ground in San Clemente, told Breitbart News. “We are all responsible adults so we can make our individual choices.”

“This movement is about us rising up for our freedom and against Governor Newsom’s overreaching edicts,” Ly said.

“This is tyrannical and government overreach on behalf of Gavin Newsom and other Democrat governors. The American people, as well as citizens of other countries need to stand up against this,” Nancy Vu-Kerr, who took part in the Huntington Beach protest, told Breitbart News. “Our freedoms are truly at risk and all we need to do is look at the history of my mother country of Vietnam, and other countries of Venezuela, Cuba, Iran and others.”

Russ Taylor, who also helped organize the protests, told Breitbart News the bottom line is freedom.

“We, as citizens, should be responsible, but we shouldn’t be so fearful that we live in a bubble and lose our personal liberties,” Taylor said.

Rick Brown, who just finished running the successful campaign of Tito Ortiz for Huntington Beach City Council, told Breitbart News that people are fed up.

It would mean more in a blue state if these people were carrying Biden signs.

It would mean even more if Newsome were dragged out and decorated a nearby tree.

I live within steps of a commuter rail station that takes you into Downtown Boston,one of the world's most vibrant,and most important,cities.Last year at this time if you drove past its huge parking lot (I'd guess a 300 car capacity) at 10AM on a Tuesday you'd see it jam packed with cars.

Today,you might see a half dozen.

And that's all thanks to our Trump hating RINO Governor and his Trump hating government "experts".

Same thing in Chicago. Commuter service from the suburbs is barely above Sunday levels of service, and while the city transit agency is still running full service with only twenty percent of the ridership the railroads that contract for the suburban commuter agency have already laid off half or more of their crews.
