“The police started coming up and we said, 'we think we're within our rights.' So they started issuing tickets, five hundred dollars tickets,” Gordon said. “I don't know, it may have been twenty to thirty tickets. Everybody got one. It wasn't per car. Me and my wife was in a car together and both of us got tickets.”

Hope every cop involved gets hit with covid. It would be much more merciful than what they REALLY deserve.

Ramadan begins on the night of April 23. Some imams said they too will hold “virtual services”. Let’s see what happens if any mosque violates these orders.

Mississippi attorneys who believe in the Constitution should be lined up to help these patriots pro bono. Fight for the oath you took when you received your license.

Greenville, MS, is a lock for Biden, but there is a remnant of conservative opposition on the delta.

Drove by a drive-in theater in Delta, CO the other day and a sign said “Easter Sunrise Service”.

Tie the mayor to a post, stand said post up, then throw every notice on to a pile at the base of the pole.

Have 5 gallons of diesel in a can nearby, and a book of matches sitting on top.

Walk away.

The Mayor should be sued and forced to pay every fine that the police handed out.

Make the city’s leaders including the police pay at the VOTING BOOTHS.

Several Mississippi smaller cities including Jacksonville have been taken over by Marxists and other assorted leftists. Time to take them out at the voting booth.

Also, large companies who don’t like their leaders can cut off business with the cities/towns if they have other business to take up the slack.
