LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) - Midway through his daily update in Frankfort on Wednesday, Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear acknowledged the commotion just outside his briefing room, a group of protesters demanding the state re-open its economy.
“Everybody should be able to express their opinions,” he said about the protesters, who were clearly audible during the WAVE 3 News broadcast of Beshear’s news conference. “They believe we should open the economy. It would absolutely kill people. We know we’re not to that point. My job isn’t to make the popular decision, but the right decision.”
Among the chants heard: “Abortion is not essential,” “Families are essential,” “We want to work,” “Open up Kentucky” and “Let freedom ring.”
The governor added that he plans to work with Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb and Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine to collaborate on a plan to get back to normal with the states north of Kentucky.
“We’re gonna continue that cooperation in planning how we will eventually ease restrictions and open up the economy,” he said. “We’ll do it thoughtfully to make sure we don’t see a reemergence of the virus.”
Beshear said talk of preparing for a return to normal should not be mistaken for an actual return to normal.
“We still believe we are in the escalation, so we’ve got to keep at it,” he said. “View this like we are at halftime.”

Protesters disrupt Beshear as he announces 7 new COVID-19 deaths and 88 new cases
The entropy is spreading. People are not buying the Democrat message.
It’s more like desperation. Think about how you would feel if you had a family to worry about and your income was shot.
Man!!! They just get louder and louder and he totally ignores the obvious.

Will they buy the Dem line from FreeRepublic? Plenty of Freepers agree with BeSheared.
As he said if the economy is reopened people will die. He is 100% correct.
2,900,000 US deaths annually
61,000 Corona deaths
The seams are popping.
Serious question; I'm just curious what would happen? Seems to me we Americans have traditionally been somewhat a rebellious lot, NOT inclined to hide in our houses waiting for the Ruling Class to grant permission to come out...
