SEATTLE — Thousands of people gathered at the Washington state Capitol to protest Gov. Jay Inslee’s stay-at-home order designed to combat the spread of the coronavirus.
In Olympia on Sunday, some protesters wore masks, while others waved American flags.
The Washington State Patrol said an estimated 2,500 people showed up to the protest. No arrests were made.
Tyler Miller, one of the organizers of the event, had said rural areas should be treated differently than more urban locations with more coronavirus cases.
Earlier Sunday, Inslee decried President Donald Trump’s call to “liberate” parts of the country from social-distancing decrees, saying Trump is fomenting a potentially deadly “insubordination” before the pandemic is contained.
The latest statewide death toll as reported by the Department of Health had reached 634 deaths among 11,790 confirmed coronavirus cases as of 11:59 p.m. Saturday.
Here’s a breakdown of some of the counties with the highest totals: King County has 346 deaths among 5,135 cases; Snohomish County has 94 deaths among 2,101 cases; and Pierce County has 32 deaths among 1,109 cases.

That’s not true. ....must be you’ve not been listening to Trump when he’s spoken of the many facets and people involved in this effort. Numbers and science matter but it’s just a portion of the whole effort being taken.
We are well positioned to come back strong. That Market has seen gains since the sell off and the economy will take off soon. This is not a depression or even a rescission, it will be seen as a very short term V in the economy. Down very fast, up just as fast.
Fauci stood at that damn podium 12 days ago and said that WITH the mitigation in place we would still have 100,000 - 200,000 deaths in the US these bureaucrats are completely USELESS and lives are being DESTROYED due to their completely phony numbers!!!
If our Pres. and this administration saw the danger and need to be cautious...for that matter every nation in the world including the dictators understood the danger and took exreme measures to counter the threat.....then you're living on a different planet as is said.
That and "for the children" are the two biggest apologies for tyranny in the modern world.
You know that word right...FREEDOM?
Go on do what you do...as you do it..and remember....
We are having boots on our necks...
When they come for you...I won't help you..unless you scream for help.
How old are you?
Well, looks like some people were standing apart, but I’m betting there were still large knots of them milling about. Not good.
I have no boot on my neck.
I have made a decision minimize my risk.
I do not need a government to tell me to ‘social distance.”
I can do that on my own using the data that is available.
YOU have no idea the reality of what's going on when you ignore the obvious efforts made to whip this virus spread into a controlled spread as much as one can do with a highly infectious and unknown virus as it was and still is in many respects.
Throwing rocks at Freepers who are all trying to manage their life and the safety of their families isn't helpful. They have the 'right' to be as cautious as they determine as much as you do throwing it into the wind and hoping nothing lands on yourself.
I got an Ear Full
Today by a Screaming
LibTard,
Yes,I’m a little
Prickly.
You’re a mouthy enabler of a gutless coward.
This Coronavirus crap is going to destroy millions of lives economically and you are aiding and abetting such cause.
Patriots everywhere should be protesting at the State Capitols.
My point is
“IT” is still
Out There,
Waiting,
H1N1 was Spanish Flu
from 1917,
This is a part of Life.
Do your Best
and Live without FEAR!
There’s an old saying....
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
In what way has anyone got a boot on your neck? There’s none on mine. I’m as “free” today as I was before the virus hit this nation..
.. These measures are and remain temporary we’re asked to follow and thus far have proven ‘effective’ sufficiently to prevent our health system failing or being overwhelmed that couldn’t be handled as obviously seen in other countries.
For these measures we’ve discoverd for the most part the nations peoples work tgether at all levels, that our health system needed upgrading in it’s preparation for such events, (and there will be more), and that our intradependence on other nations needs to be revamped considerably in medicinal and otherwise medical devices.
This virus hasn’t taken ‘freedom’ from anyone...it’s actually made us grateful we have the country, manpower, willingness to step up and beat this thing.
To quote a great inspiring man:
“We took the greatest economy in the world and we closed it in order to win this war....we will carry our nation forward to new heights of greatness and glory”...Pres.Donald J.Trump

On the contrary. You are vastingly increasing your risk by cheering on this bit of fascist nanny stateism. When these zealot Demofascist come for you and yours don’t expect the support of patriots.
Who then are you now pointing your armament at? The virus? Because that is the enemy at hand we’re fighting.
***Where’s AntiFa***
They were furloughed. CNN, CBS, NBC, etc... took over their job during lockdown. Saved the control freaks money that way.
I am not advocating government restrictions.
I am only protecting my family.
In fact, there is no government entity keeping me in my house, keeping me from going to the office, or keeping me from going shopping.
I am choosing to be here with my family.
***I am choosing to be here with my family***
Will you and your family be “choosing” the mandatory covid tracking vaccine?
