1. Thanks for posting. I knew there had to be

some really shitty reason. Guess they are worried about her.

2. ...wow I forgot about that!

3. Many of her directives don't make sense even to Michigan residents that voted for her

She has banned all non essential movement that can't be proven to have a life saving purpose

Not understanding why driving around by myself in my car (without ever getting out), just to get out of the house, should result in a misdemeanor $500 fine and/or 90 days jail time.

5. And what happens if you were

In an accident? You’d be taking away emergency responders who have enough on their plates right now without having to deal with bored joy riders.

7. Yet, pot shops are allowed to be open because they are "essential"

So no problem if people are driving there. Yet, I go drive around my rural area for several miles and I'm risking everyone's safety. My county has 7 confirmed cases and zero deaths. I have left the house just once in the last week

9. Take a walk.

10. 100% this, plus

People are like, It's just one person, so what? Times that by thousands...

8. To be fair, Michigan has a LOT of stupid people in it.

So, there's that. My Dr. is no longer seeing any patients over 60, or anyone immune compromised. As of yesterday, my county had 17 cases, which will likely double in days. This virus is everywhere.

4. No, they are just following Donny's lead

It is because she is a woman in a potition of authority criticizing Trump. Remember how Trump treated the mayor of San Juan after Hurricaine Maria. Don't minimize the blatant mysogyny by attributing this to being just a political attack. Trmup is vicously attacking her because he can't stand the thought of a woman daring to criticise him.
