Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., told Kentucky’s Gov. Andy Beshear to “take a step back” on Friday after the governor warned residents that they would be forced to self-quarantine for 14 days if they attended an in-person Easter church service — due to the risk of the spread of the coronavirus.

“Taking license plates at church? Quarantining someone for being Christian on Easter Sunday? Someone needs to take a step back here,” he tweeted.

Beshear, a Democrat, announced this week that people seen taking part in mass gatherings — including in-person church services — would have license plate numbers taken, which would in turn be given to local health departments — who would force the offender to go into quarantine. […]

“I hear people say, ‘It’s my choice,’” Beshear, who serves as a deacon in his local church, said. “Well, it’s not the person next to you’s choice … This is the only way that we can ensure that your decision doesn’t kill somebody else, that your decision doesn’t spread the coronavirus in your county and in your community.” …

Democrats are showing their BUTTS!! They LOVE CONTROLLING US!! NAZIs!!

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Yep.

[MachIV]

Baby-Face-Beshear gets on the TV every afternoon and with the demeanor of Mr. Rogers, talks down to Kentuckians every day like we are 8 or 9 year old children needing to be reminded of the same song and dance day after day after day.

I’m sick of it.

He is going to overplay his hand pretty soon.

GOPe is not much better

[House Atreides]

How many Muslims did the DemocRAT governor place under mandatory quarantine from his surveillance of mosques yesterday?

[Ann Archy]

yes...just slightly.

I’m in Kentucky and am tired of Beshear but I’m not too fond of the northern neighbor’s govenor as well, Eric Holcomb. He is a limp back boned RINO of the GOPe kind and seems to be acting more like the Lock-Down-Liberals.

“Well, it’s not the person next to you’s choice … "

Of course, it is! Were they kidnapped and dragged to church?

On the bright side, the virus is enabling us to identify those who aspire to be DICTATORS!

Huh? It isn't?

[Ann Archy]

And these DICTATORS will STILL get re-elected!!! DUMBASSES!

[libertylover]

Yep.

[aimhigh]

Liberal think tanks are now saying that when the shutdown is lifted, there should still be restrictions against all gatherings of 50 or more. Calculated to keep the churches shut down.

That's a burning question that needs an answer. Also, if any mass transit is running anywhere in the state.

This is what happens when 4,000 stupid Kentuckians decide they vote for Beshear because Bevin actually had the courage to call things exactly as they were and didin’t give a fllying riop whose wittle feewings he hurt.

I noticed that too, but it's just too much logic for Comrade Bashear.

[DarthVader]

Breshear was not reelected. He will be up in 4 years.

[Olog-hai]

They all think like Comrade Wilhelm over in NYC, who in turn thinks like Xi Jinping over in Red China; permanent closure is on their minds.

Which makes for some fantastic campaign ads
They have no idea of the fodder they give us. (Or they know and that is why they want mail in voting)
