OXFORD (CBS) – An escalating standoff with the town of Oxford and a local gym owner came to a head as the town moved in and changed the locks and ordered any members inside to leave. This week a judge ruled the town could use whatever means necessary to close the facility and took the first step overnight by turning off the water and electricity.
In the afternoon, a constable posted a copy of the court order and soon after the locks were being changed.
“I understand shutdown laws and rules but enough is enough,” said Prime Fitness owner David Blondin.
Under the state’s emergency shutdown order gyms are not allowed to open until phase 3, but Blondin reopened his doors one month ago with the support of his members.
“You’re going to have 25-30 people at the most. Down the street at Walmart and Target it’s a hundred people at one time. It’s ridiculous,” said member James Lauzonis.
Oxford town counsel Mark Reich called it a matter of public health and safety. “This kind of operation could lead to a spike in the virus. I don’t think we should be impacted by the intent of one individual to flout the law,” said Reich.
Blondin faces $1300 a day in mounting fines and believes the town has other intentions. “It almost seems they want to put me out of business completely,” Blondin said.

Kinda amazing now just how brave he is enforcing the shutdown of a business owner.
“The owner of the gym is going to be on WRKO momentarily.”
He is on now. They closed both his businesses.
Luckily the town just cut of utilities and changed the locks. In Seattle the city sent in Antifa to take over six block, cutting off legal owners use of their property.
Convert it to a mosque...
Earlier this month the bull dyke Attorney General of Massachusetts had this to say about the Molotov cocktails being thrown at police cars and businesses.This perfectly sums up the attitude that the Gay State's "leaders" have toward the great unwashed...the bitter clingers...the deplorables.

Yeah, but rioters carrying blm signs are allowed to do anything they want.
One thing many people don't know about it, is that it is an intelligent virus.
It is so smart, it can tell whether it is in a grocery store versus a gym or a hair salon versus a liquor store. It can tell whether the people it wants to attack are in a church worshiping versus and movie theater watching a film. It can tell whether it is on a beach or football field.
And it is programmable. The people programming it can decide when and where and how severe it will attack people, depending on their political leanings.
It can be more severe for some folks who are law-abiding citizens, forced to lock themselves in their homes, with masks on and standing 6 foot apart from their family members, who just want it to go away so they can just go back to work to feed their families and pay their mortgages.
But it has shown itself to be less severe against those people who want to destroy our cities and defund our police by not attacking people who are rioting, looting and burning down our cities versus supporters of Donald Trump at a campaign rally.
You need to wake up and learn more about how smart and controllable this virus can be.
When dictators run a city......
America is over.
I heard the suit was filed in Federal Court, and the Judge (William Young) was appointed to the Federal bench by Reagan.
