Hi John,
I'm George Buck. I am an expert in disaster management and emergency management and counter-terrorism, and have written several books on these topics, and have a Ph.D. as well.
It disgusts me how ambitious Democrat politicians have been taking advantage of the COVID crisis to push their own ideological agenda, one that has nothing to do with health concerns.
Members of a Baptist church were given $500 tickets by local authorities for sitting in their cars in the church parking lot listening to a sermon from their pastor on the radio during the coronavirus pandemic.
The lot at Temple Baptist Church in Greenville, Mississippi, was full of parishioners Wednesday night gathered in their parked vehicles to listen to pastor Arthur Scott give a sermon via a lower-power FM frequency radio, according to Delta Democrat-Times.
That’s when police officers arrived and started handing out $500 tickets to people who didn’t disperse in adherence to social distancing guidelines.
In Kansas, a legal battle is unfolding as Republicans in the state have pushed back against the Democrat governor’s effort to close churches during the coronavirus pandemic.
Reports have surfaced throughout the United States of pastors and parishioners defying stay-at-home orders to worship with their communities.
So let me get this straight. These politicians think that people sitting in their own cars in a parking lot is a public health hazard? I don't think so!
That's not all.
We’ve now witnessed local and state governments issue decrees about what people can and cannot buy in stores, arrest parents playing with their children in public parks, yank people off public buses at random, remove basketball rims along with private property, ticket churchgoers, and in one case try—and fail—to chase down a lone runner on an empty beach. All of this, we’re
told, is for our own good.
The most egregious example of this outpouring of authoritarianism was an attempt by Louisville, Kentucky, Mayor Greg Fischer to ban drive-in church services on Easter. On Holy Thursday, one day before Christians were to begin their most important religious celebrations of the year, Fischer declared that drive-in Easter services would be illegal.
To remove all doubt about his seriousness, he also threatened arrest and criminal penalties for anyone who dared violate his order, and in an Orwellian twist, invited people to snitch on their fellow citizens. Fischer justified this by saying it was “to save lives.”
I believe these are efforts to separate the American people from their right to free exercise of religion, and that these efforts have no public health impact at all. That is my expert opinion.
Not all in government are getting it wrong. President Trump is getting it right! The Republican Governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis, is getting it right- protecting people but not imprisoning or impoverishing his people.
Trump needs help. He needs allies in Congress, and he needs allies that understand this crisis and the dangers of biological terrorism. I can help by flipping Congress by replacing Turncoat Charlie Crist here in Florida - and for that, I need your help immediately!
The current crisis requires people serious of thought and with the right priorities- both qualities that the Dems do not possess.
For God and Country,
