Oregon Mayor Leads the Charge to Open Businesses on Jan 1, Despite Lockdowns
2021-01-01
[PJMedia] The mayor of a small town in Oregon has had enough. Stan Pulliam, the Republican mayor of Sandy, Oregon, has heard from business owners. He’s heard from citizens. He’s even heard from the governor. He has asked the question, over and over, where’s the evidence that lockdowns and the related economic devastation has worked to slow the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic?

Pulliam has yet to get any answers. And he’s demanding action.

In an exclusive interview with PJ Media, Pulliam said he’s heard from countless business owners who tell him they can’t last another couple of weeks under Governor Kate Brown’s lockdown orders before closing for good. "The message I got from them," Pulliam said, "was that they’re between a rock and a hard place."

#3  Good, but I hope they don't get any social cool points reduced. I would hate to see their credit card and bank accounts cancelled for not toeing the establishment line.

#2  I’m not seeing the evidence that that justifies such an action. I got to tell you, she acted excited. She said, I absolutely have the evidence."

"It made me nervous," Pulliam said with a laugh. "I thought oh, holy smokes, here it comes after months of waiting for it. She said, you know, I’ll have our health officials send you the evidence immediately after this."

That evidence never materialized

#1  Will be interesting to see how much fascist the Govnah has if the town opens up (and they should). Will she try and arrest everybody, or just fine the hell out of everybody?
