Shays rebellion was over 200 years ago. It was about taxes and it did fail. Shays rebellion has nothing to do with the tyranny occurring in Michigan. Considering the assault upon personal liberties and the infringement of peoples right to support themselves I believe it is justified to consider using force against Michigan’s unconstitutional governor. Overthrowing the state government of Michigan would send a powerful message to all leftists of what will happen if they try to take their plans of socialism and authoritarian government national. A state government has never been overthrown but that does not mean it cannot be. Governor halfwit is working hard to see Michigan become the first one that is overthrown.

Do you know that the government can freeze your assets or seize your gold in times of national crisis?? And hence popping your freedom illusion bubble??

Advocating violence is not a good idea. A recall petition for Governor Gretchen Whitless, better.

2 people protest, they'll issue you fines and maybe arrest you. 20 people protest and they'll send the SWAT team in and break it up with guns drawn. 200 people protest and they'll issue a strong warning to the media that this has to be taken seriously. 2000 people protest and that's the end of the lock down.

How is it he has no income. He's 77 and still working. How sad is that. He should be retired. Why aren't we taking care of our seniors.

Well, come on back up here and get the revolution started, Che!

You fire the first shot - we'll be right behind you, honest.

For once, we absolutely agree.

So, what's stopping all these unhappy Michiganders from recalling her?

And for me this was the take away.

77 and this man has to cut hair for a living to live....and he says he needs that money.

That's sad.....very very sad.

Or try to swim at an NYC beach and De Blasio will have you arrested and taken right out of the water. As if someone swimming is going to spread Covid-19.

Beats me. But as an attorney it is my duty to advocate adhering to the rule of law.
