Both owners were issued summonses and clients were given a warning.
But Murphy suggested during his Monday briefing that the state might have to step in if the gym’s defiance continues.
“I’m not concerned it will spiral out of control, and we will take action,” Murphy said. “If you show up at that gym again tomorrow, there’s going to be a different reality than showing up today. These aren’t just words. We’ve got to enforce this, but I also don’t want to start World War III.”

Why, Murphy's Law, of course!
Well bring the handcuffs yourself and arrest them, Phil.
None. They are not complying with the "Governor's Order".
Once again, we see how the race to the bottom among RAT governors is picking up momentum.
Economist Art Laffer and his cohorts at the Committee to Unleash Prosperity found that New Jersey’s Wu flu response was so inept it deserved an F minus.
Governor, You did everything to make this private war happen. You've done enough damage. This lockdown is over, Governor. Do you understand me? This lockdown is over! Look at them out there! Look at them! If you won't end this now, they will kill you. Is that what you want? It's over Phillip. It's over! - what Colonel Trautman would say
By the way, what’s with Phil’s teeth? They look like those wax teeth they used to sell when I was a kid.
You clowns in New Jersey actually ELECTED this thing (well, I should talk - considering the freak we have acting as Health Director here in Pennsylvania).
——I’m not concerned it will spiral out of control——
Guess what Governor.......it is already out of your control.
The words of the police officer at the gym indicate clearly control has been lost. Or in reality, control has been forfeited
Gym Owners = American Heroes. This has to start happening all over the fruited plain.
He suddenly opened shooting ranges after the ANJRPC sued and filed for a preliminary injunction blocking the closure because they were likely to win on the merits. Murphy reopened the ranges within days because he doesn't want a court ruling that is likely to go against his lockdown. The gym owners had a lawyer with them both days. They are prepared. I think they are looking to get arrested and will immediately file a legal challenge to Murphy's lockdown as soon as the booking process is complete. Murphy doesn't want it to end up in court where he'll face a risk of being overruled as the Governor was in Oregon. He will talk tough but won't do anything.
Everybody, OPEN (responsibly) NOW!!!
Nope, CW II.
Yes, this is all a good object lesson about how government regulation can only cause black markets, but cannot eliminate them.
Likely this proto-fascist governor prefers a bath house...all-male bathhouse.
The wife is on her way home from her first gym workout since the house arrest ended.
Remember, it’s not a quarantine, it’s house arrest and it’s illegal. People are welcome to do it if they wish though.
What actual LAW is the gym being accused of violating?
Murphy’s Law
By the way, what’s with Phil’s teeth? They look like those wax teeth they used to sell when I was a kid.
That is why we call him the retarded woodchuck
Nah
We need WWIII, so we can nuke China for this
One man refused!!!!!!!!!!!!! the others came to help... and keep up the pressure!! governors do not have the right to add to their power just because they think they can.... it’s out of control unless the people say NO and put them back in to serving the people instead of power over the people...
These guys are articulate and have shown they can operate safely. The governor is being a jerk and will not admit he was wrong. Interesting standoff. The shut downers are becoming cultists. They are making fools of themselves.
