The owners of Atilis gym in New Jersey reopened on Saturday by kicking down the wooden barricades authorities used to block their entrance amid coronavirus restrictions.

Co-owner Ian Smith posted a video of himself and his business partner, Frank Trumbetti, kicking the barriers and entering as a crowd cheers their decision. The dramatic display indicated that the months-long standoff between Gov. Phil Murphy and the gym owners wasn't finished.

Smith's caption contained a defiant message for New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy: "You will not trample one [sic] our rights and you will not destroy our lives. We will not back down. Ever."

How much has New Jersey reduced its police force just to appease BLM?

And watch as the compliant police who eventually decide they want to keep their jobs and thus follow an illegal order from criminal government to hurt this gym owner.

‘And watch as the compliant police who eventually decide they want to keep their jobs and thus follow an illegal order from criminal government to hurt this gym owner.’

and read many posts from FR posters backing the compliant cops; in so many, many threads...

,,,and then bragging about ratting on those pushing back...

I was thrilled to read of the defiance. I am worried Americans will just “go along to get along”. This imposition of illegal laws on us is worthy and must have defiance or it is absolutely the initial completion of the first step to our total subjugation.

Democrats always claim they don’t like bullying. That governor is one.

Service areas on NJ interstates are violating quarantine regulations daily.

Those are still open.

We need many more like these business owners who risk all by standing up to the vile tyranny of politicians and unelected bureaucrats ... as there has -- and continues to be -- absolutely no support from the federal government to protect and defend our Constitutional rights.

However, for this to happen one must remove their face diaper and speak (and act) out. Unfortunately, over the past four months far too many American "men" have devolved into compliant, scared little b!tches unwilling to defend themselves and their children much less their livelihoods and their liberty.

Right. The lives of those compliant police should be made a living hell. Enforcement of the lockdown measures should mean almost certain death.

Target the police.
