Michigander Posts ‘All Business is Essential’ Billboards Around State
Breitbart ^ | May 23 2020 | KYLE OLSON

Posted on 05/23/2020 3:20:26 PM PDT by knighthawk

In an act of what he calls “economic disobedience,” Erik Kiilunen is posting “All Business is Essential” billboards around Michigan to protest Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s shutdown orders.

Billboards will be appearing in Grand Rapids, Detroit, and Howell, and Kiilunen said it’s only the beginning.

“All business is essential, and the government, and state governors, do not have the legal authority to pick and choose who has the right to work and feed their families, and who doesn’t,” he said.

Gretchen Whitmer is a communist Democrat and has destroyed her State and thumbed her nose at Trump.

I still have to wonder if she, like Cuomo, is still wildly popular here in Michigan. As part of her publicity obsessed path to the VP for Biden, followed by speaking at his funeral and becoming President. God forbid.

HOORAY Erik Kiilunen! Thank you, sir. The most EVIL governor in the history of my state. BY FAR.

The state obviously didn’t learn its lesson after Jennifer Granholm.

How long until the Queen of Michigan has this man arrested and his billboard removed on the ground that they are not “essential”?

Since the the GOP lacks a veto proof majority the only thing that is going to stop this bitch is the Mi SC. No amount of protests will matter. In fact she gets off on defying them. Her latest excuse for extending the lockdown is to avoid a second wave. This excuse has no tangible end, she could use it for months.

I have no doubt she is pondering that very action.

Today crossed over to “Free Indiana” and eNjoyed freedom without a mask, open stores, and sit down dining. Few hours of freedom, and then back to Witmer’s gulag.

If you value Freedom and Liberty, vote all Dems OUT, no matter the office.

And who put up the billboards? Is advertising “essential”?

“As the esteemed governor of the state of Michigan, I hereby declare that all billboards will be removed forthwith, never to return!”

In a sane world, this debacle would result in the end of the democrat party for all time. (I refuse to capitalize that word.)

And is anyone doing anything about that? Bringing actions before the court?

If not, they have to wallow in the mire they made.

It worked pretty well in Wisconsin. Our Republican lawmakers and Supreme Court shut our nerdy little oddball of a governor right the hell up.

Granholm blew me away in 2009. Even though my state isn’t much better, I’m kind of glad I haven’t made it back yet

Early on in this cluster frack, I had a sign that read “Freedom Is Essential Too”. Had some fun with that.
