‘We cannot keep going this way.’ SLO County residents protest shelter-at-home
SanLuisObispo ^ | 4/26/20 | Cassandra Garibay

When Atascadero resident Fay Johnson’s neighbor called the county to file a complaint about her eight family members gathering for Easter dinner, she said the shelter-at-home order had gone too far.

“If that sheriff had come down my driveway and told me to disperse my party, they would have had to arrest me because I was not going to do that. I did everything I could to keep everybody safe,” Johnson said. “It’s just gone too far.”

On Sunday morning, she joined the 10 to 15 adults and children who gathered in downtown San Luis Obispo to protest the shelter-at-home order that has been in place locally since mid-March to slow the spread of coronavirus.

The San Luis Obispo protest comes after protests against the shelter-at-home-order were banned in the state’s capitol by Califonia Highway Patrol, according to the Sacramento Bee.

**SNIP**

Most protesters wore masks and stood the recommended 6 feet apart to maintain social distancing, while holding signs with messages such as “Stop the destruction of our rights and our economy” and “Create a clear plan to reopen economy.” Several people cheered and honked as they drove by.

Yes. And Ms Karen Snitch Neighbor should go jump in a lake. She probably doesn’t even have eight friends or family members and she’s jealous.

Interesting anniversaries are coming up:

Adolf Hitler committed suicide on April 30!

Germany surrendered unconditionally on all fronts on May 8 (May 7 on the Western Front.)

The neighbor is an absolute disgrace - people like this neighbor would have thrived in East Germany or Mao's China.
