The typical NJ voter is a complete moron. Stupid Germans shrugged when Nuremberg Laws were put into effect and Murphy’s Laws make NJ fidiots not flinch as their noses are stuck to their phones and eyeballs glued to streaming TV.

The Mass Staties put away their jackboots for the summer on April 15th. They also put on their Smokey the Bear hats.

It’s sad and not a little surprising that LEOs sworn to uphold the law (the supreme law being the U.S. Constitution) have chosen instead to enforce these “executive orders”

It’s sad that fat, stupid fake conservatives have not gotten off their fat, useless asses and elected pro-2nd amendment, constitutional sheriffs in their counties. If they had, they wouldn’t need to worry about goosestepping, big city gestapo pigs.

The jackboots are Massachusetts Staties.

Those are German Polizei, not military, goosestepping past the Fuhrer. Enforcing the will of the Reich on civilians.

Excellent choice of images.

[granite #3] It will sink in soon, I hope. ...violating the emergency orders by organizing a prohibited event...

[Buckeye McFrog #6] Murphy knows his state will be bankrupt and unable to pay judgments when these people win civil rights suits.

The exercise of the police power by a State is not unconstitutional.

The Police Power relates to the sovereign power of a State, conferred by the Tenth Amendment.

POLICE POWER inherent power of state governments, often delegated in part to local governments, to impose upon private rights those restrictions that are reasonably related to promotion and maintenance of the health, safety, morals and general welfare of the public. See 57 N.W. 331, 333. “Police power must be confined to such restrictions and burdens as are thus necessary to promote the public welfare, or, in other words to prevent the infliction of public injury.” See 71 N.W. 400, 401. “In the exercise of its police powers a state is not confined to matters relating strictly to the public health, morals, and peace, but, there may be interference whenever the public interest demands it; and in this particular, a large discretion is necessarily vested in the legislature, to determine not only what the interests of the public require, but what measures are necessarily for the protection of such interests. 9 N.W. 2d 914, 919. Restrictions upon the use of one’s property, such as zoning laws, or upon the conduct of one’s business, such as environmental regulations, are imposed by state and local governments pursuant to the police power. Such power is conferred upon the states by the Tenth Amendment but is subject to and limited by due process considerations.

Law Dctionary, Seventh Edition

State ex rel. Carpenter v. City of St. Louis, 318 Mo. 870, 2 S.W.2d 713, 722, has adopted this definition of police power as it now appears in 16 C.J.S. Constitutional Law § 174, p. 889: "Police power is the exercise of the sovereign right of a government to promote order, safety, health, morals, and the general welfare of society, within constitutional limits." The police power is an essential attribute of government without which constitutional guaranties of personal and property rights would be ineffective and meaningless. In their very nature, neither the police power nor constitutional limitations can be absolute; they are necessarily relative and dependent in the complexities of modern life. 5 McQuillin, Municipal Corporations, 3d Ed., § 19.22, p. 531; Ex parte Smith, 231 Mo. 111, 132 S.W. 607, 609 [3].
