Kentucky couple slapped with ankle monitors after wife tests positive for coronavirus

That is absolutely outrageous!! What's next.....little yellow stars and rail cars?

You have no idea how close you are to the truth.

This is a warm up.

Look at the damnedocrat governors who are forcing covid patients into nursing homes, just like our soulless governor whitler.

This is systematic murder.

Numbers are starting to fall again after they peaked, but Whitmer seems bound and determined to lock Michigan down again. Now it's the "threat of community spread" again. She's manipulating the data to her own end and NONE of this is being shared with those she rules.

I would guess that Gov. Whitmers next move is another extension of the "emergency". Then later look for massive tax increases across the board, including fuel taxes.
Somebody has to pay for all the unemployment she doled out and the loss of fuel and sales taxes.

She and her minions need to be defunded!

No- Time to Defund the politicians and their bloated bureaucracies!

I’ve said it before. I’ll say it again. Governors like Whitmer and Beshear are just trying to separate citizens and pit them against one another. The want chaos.

St. Louis County Clamping Down on Youth Sports

Starting Monday, young athletes will still be able to practice with their teams but only in groups of ten or fewer. Spectators won't be allowed, and games against other teams are forbidden.

She already extended her emergency power until 11 Aug. She did that last week. Apparently she can declare this for the rest of her term and only th citizen led resolution can stop her.

Imagine that in America... From a woman who's party claimed they'd never let Trump become one.

As far as budget goes, if she can't get her high taxes approved, she'll take out another loan that we'll be on the hook for and have no say in, again.

Might as well post the link for the Michiganders: Unlock Michigan.

My understanding is that with 425,000 signatures, the legislature can pass a citizen suggested law that cannot be vetoed by the governor.

As a former resident and current part-time resident of Michigan, get'r done folks!

Interestingly, the Hardin County Sheriffs Office is saying they delivered papers, and nothing more. They state they did not and will not put on tracking devices. The health department has no authority to enforce such an order. Someone is not telling the truth.

Interesting for sure. Could it have been local PD rather than Sheriff or maybe State Police? We were talking about this at work (our local Dept.) and the consensus was that there would have been one hell of a fight or worse, before allowing them to put monitors on any of us for this crap.

Looks like Kentucky has been doing this for some time now.This is from March 31st.

Louisville is forcing unwilling coronavirus patients to self-isolate. Is it right?

https://www.courier-journal.co...patients/5094594002/

Two Louisville coronavirus patients and a family member have been ordered by circuit judges to isolate and wear tracking devices after health officials learned they'd been in public against medical advice.

Issuing health-related civil orders is new territory for the courts, according to Judge Charles Cunningham, who issued two Friday. The third was issued earlier this month when a South End resident who tested positive for coronavirus refused to self-isolate.

But the orders are essential for keeping the community safe when infected patients refuse to self-quarantine, officials said during Mayor Greg Fischer's Facebook Live briefing Tuesday.

our small town has now passed the masks required when going into any public place. Wife does all the shopping so I'm not participating in this foolishness. However my son is getting married on Friday. I'll be forced to wear a mask for the 20 minute ceremony. The wedding party is exempt during the actual ceremony. Makes sense right?

My son doesn't like it anymore than I do and came and talked with me about it. I told him I would comply. This is all about politicians on every level having to make it appear they are doing "something"! Governor Walz is going to announce state wide masks required in the next day or so.

We have not had one single death in our county. Here is a quote from the news article.

quote:

However, at Tuesday's Council meeting, Peterson said that enforcement needs to be largely voluntary on the part of businesses and individuals. He says police should only be involved as a very last resort.

Individual enforcement huh? So all the mask wearing Karens now have a personal responsibility to "enforce" the non mask wearers to comply? This will require more police response and will fill the hospitals far more than the covid ever did. What a wishy washy bunch of crap!

Local news is reporting that NJ Field Marshal Murphy has ordered the arrest of the owners of the Attilis Gym in Bellmawr. They were handcuffed, arrested and hauled of to jail this morning. Here is a link: https://philadelphia.cbslocal....rsey-shutdown-order/

As if these cities don't have enough financial troubles caused by the lock downs they are going to paying thousands if not millions in civil lawsuits when this is over in November.
I hope the gym owners sue the ever loving crap out of them and Ramius gets his pound of flesh as well!

So with all of this going on why are there not recall petitions against the governors, and elected officials? Why not move to get them out of office? Like they attempted on Gov. Walker In Wisconsin.

Kentucky has no such provision.

NJ has been particularly hard hit by the virus. For those of you who are fortunate enough not to have any contact with those affected by the disease, you are fortunate. I have many relatives who work in the health care industry. It's an ugly and dangerous disease. That's why the Attillus Gym situation really bugs me. These guys are NOT Covid deniers. They did the reopening exactly right. They don't just ask if you have a fever and a few other screening questions. Before you enter the gym, you get your temperature checked. If you have an elevated temperature, you don't get in. You have to wear a mask when you enter the gym until you are able to socially distance. The equipment is 6 ft apart. They have the most comprehensive cleaning regimen I have heard for any business, bar none. The equipment is cleaned after every use.

The owners of the gym should be held up as a positive example of how to reopen a business such as theirs, not as people who deserve prison. This has NOTHING to do with public health. It has everything to do with revenge (they pissed off the Governor) and with a show of force showing the public who is boss.
