BAKERSFIELD, Calif. - A group of people gathered near the Chick-Fil-A off of Stockdale Highway protesting the stay at home orders and were calling for local businesses to reopen Saturday.

The protesters gathered at the restaurant just before noon on Saturday. They held signs saying the stay at home orders are against their constitutional rights. A similar rally also took place earlier in the week.

Protesters spoke about the economic impact the orders are having on local businesses. "They are trying to keep their businesses going right now by doing to go orders but they can't compete with all these fast food restaurants and they are losing everything," Protestor Susan Adams said.

Many state laws allow emergency declarations to quarantine the sick, not the healthy.

When will people realize that the Consteetushun is just a piece of paper, and governments will do whatever they want, whenever they want? I expect the “blue” states to be still locked down by the November election. They have destroyed this country.

The left hates small, independent businesses. They are okay with big businesses because they can control them and many are big donors.

The fascists pretend we must control every contagion to zero before “we’re allowed” to have our freedom back.

The governor of Washington now says the closure is indefinite. I’d like to ask him if he means permanent. I would get a firearm if I didn’t already have one. This is getting scary.

They all need to carry signs that say “Does my body my choice only apply to killing babies?”

I wonder if people are starting to realize how quickly and easily their lives and their rights can be back-burnered?

said, "What does Chick-Fil-A a half-mile away have to do with it?"

Chick-Fil-A == Leftist code word for Right wing Nazi organization disguised as a nice to eat

Of course they have to forget.
1. Chick-Fil-A is sponsoring leftest organizations now.
2. Karl Marx's apprentice that wrote "the Jewish Question" The book used Judaism as an example of people that didn't fit into the national socialist version of Utopia

These code words and facial reactions are common now a days. This one was obvious

Once everyone loses everything, they will be more grateful of what the government will give them to survive. Pretty slick op by the power meisters.

Stockdale and California is the ‘protest corner’ of Bakersfield. It just so happens that Chick-Fil-A is on the northeast side of that corner. There is a McDonalds and 2 service stations on the other 3 corners.
