Raleigh, N.C. — An Alamance County racetrack was brought to court Thursday morning by the state health department after not complying with the governor's order to close during the coronavirus pandemic.

Ace Speedway in Elon is accused of holding stock car races that attracted thousands of people and repeatedly defying the state's request to comply with public safety regulations. A maximum of 25 people are allowed to gather under the state order to limit the spread of the virus.

Andrew Casper, a lawyer for the state, said in court that the races put North Carolinians at "grave risk."

Think Ace has the right approach.

Let’s see Casper dispute him in court.

Hold the race and have the people coming to see it, claim they are BLM protesters and thus EXEMPT from Wuhan virus restrictions.

Alex Berenson’s booklet on coronavirus, “Unreported Truths about COVID-19 and Lockdowns: Part 1,” became the No. 1 best seller in Amazon’s Kindle Store on Saturday:

Alex Berenson’s coronavirus booklet “Unreported Truths about COVID-19 and Lockdowns: hits #1 top spot on Amazon after the online retailer initially rejected it!

Former New York Times reporter and prominent lockdown critic Alex Berenson provides a counterweight to media hysteria about coronavirus in this series of short booklets answering crucial questions about COVID.

Drawing on primary sources from all over the world - including state and national-level government data, Centers for Disease Control reports, and papers in prominent scientific journals - the Essential Guide offers clear, concise, and measured answers to some of the most important questions around the coronavirus:

How are COVID deaths counted?

How many Americans are likely to die in a worst-case scenario?

What is the evidence that lockdowns do or do not help reduce the spread of the illness?

Are masks an effective way to reduce the spread?

Why did the forecasts for coronavirus hospitalizations prove so wrong?
Are children at serious risk from coronavirus?

What has the mental health impact of lockdowns been?

Whether you have been skeptical of the media’s panicked reporting all along or are just starting to wonder why the predictions of doom from March and April have not come to pass, the Essential Guide will provide you with the factual, accurate, and impeccably sourced information you need.

Please note: the Essential Guide will be published in multiple sections. Part 1 includes an introduction, an examination of the way COVID deaths are counted, and a forecast for a potential worst-case scenario of coronavirus deaths in the United States.

Available via Kindle and Paperback now.
I got the Kindle copy earlier and the Paper back came late yesterday.

Limiting that venue to 25 is absurd. This is all about wielding power over those who refuse to bow, not about public health. Petty tyrants disgust me.

More peak idiocy by government “workers”. What absolute bums. Has one government “worker” at any level lost 1 penny of pay during this fake wuhan commie killer virus scam? Fire 50% of them. Put the rest on notice.
