Governor seeks court authorization to detain citizens in quarantine camp Appeals verdict striking down scheme

The governor of New York has gone back to court seeking permission to detain citizens of her state in quarantine camps – without notice, without rights and for as long as some state-chosen health officials say is needed.

The fight arose during COVID-19, when state officials decided they would adopt a new rule giving the state exactly that power.

A lawsuit ensued, and the result was that the detention plan was ruled unconstitutional.

Gov. Kathy Hochul, through Attorney General Letitia James, now has appealed the court's rejection of her "Isolation and Quarantine Procedures" scheme, according to a report from lawyer Bobbie Anne Flower Cox at the Brownstone Institute.

The lawyer explained the rule "allowed the Department of Health to pick and choose which New Yorkers they could lock up or lock down, with no proof that you were ever even exposed to, let alone actually sick with, a communicable disease. They could have locked you down in your home, or they could have removed you from your home and forced you to quarantine in a facility of their choosing."

There were no time limits, no appeal, no age limits, no rights at all, the report explained.

And this... coming from a woman who’s own husband’s family were Polish Jews, who escaped the fate of such camps by getting here in time.

Now she wants to put American’s in camps? That’s quite a disconnect.

THIS is what the second amendment is for. When they come for you just because they don’t agree with you.

We have an office in Upstate NY full of Karens who would turn in their neighbors and watch them being taken away to a quarantine camp. The Karens would claim to be “good citizens” All are liberal Democrats...

“Tennessee....Especially East Tennessee....(Stay away from Memphis)”

Memphis is as far west in Tennessee as you can go.

“Communists never quit... Every time they detect a glimmer of freedom & liberty needing to be stomped out, they attack, attack, attack...”

Communists and Socialists are not innovators or pioneers. They want to find a community, city, state, nation, business, college, organization, or other already successful entity and hijack it.

This nation was built on communities of people who came here mainly to be left alone and serve God as they understood Him.

There isn’t a single example of Socialism or Communism being successfully implemented, but their ideologues feel compelled to spread their gospel by compulsion.

Maybe red states could use this as a basis to indefinitely detain illegal immigrants.

“If you don’t believe me, take a deep dive into their budgets.”

And...take a deep dive into the reality of the illegal invasion ongoing and orchestrated by the radical leftist Democrats currently in control. And the states have no power to stop the illegal invasion. Your point is correct.

You would think the Democrats would learn after they put American citizens in interment camps during WWII.

No water.

Actually, they’ll probably give everyone vitamin F.
Otherwise known as Fentanyl.

You mean...to spread their evil by force. Which is what they're doing. Obama knew how it would work and was even arrogant enough to voice it on video....

Obama evil

I meant Tennessee is a great state (especially East Tennessee) but Memphis is a stay away city...
