The Pennsylvania Department of Health Wednesday morning sued a company putting on a massive car show in Carlisle, Pa., despite the state's coronavirus restrictions, even as officials like Gov. Tom Wolf encouraged huge protests in the wake of the death of George Floyd.
The show, called Spring Carlisle, calls itself "one of the largest automotive flea markets in the world and one of the best opportunities to get your hands on all things automotive." Organizers of the event, which began Wednesday morning despite the suit and is set to run into the weekend, are asking attendees to wear face masks and social distance and are providing "sanitation stations" for disinfecting and washing hands.
But the show, in asking for a waiver excepting it to state regulations earlier this month, said it anticipated a crowd of about 100,000 at the automotive bonanza — something state Health Secretary Rachel Levine found unacceptable, given the 250-person cap on gatherings in the state, even for counties in the "green" reopening phase.

Now wait just a minute. We were told everyone was out of a job and their kids were literally starving so how are they able to afford a new car?
This could get really interesting.
Last month the Cumberland County Sheriff went on record saying he would not enforce any action against business operating in defiance of Governor Wolf’s shutdown.
In Pennsylvania Sheriffs are officers of the court...so, if the court rules against the show, who is going to serve the “cease and desist” papers?
Someone explain why the state is suing the organizer? If there is a legal order that the show is violating can’t the five enforce it with troops errr police uh I mean community crime counselors?
Does anyone know of a government suing a private entity to stop a supposedly illegal action?
BLM doesn’t create anything. They destroy.
