This is from the article . . .
Quote:In Michigan, Michael Lackomar called a lawyer after a run-in with state troopers.
Lackomar said he and his wife have left their home in the Detroit suburbs for their solitary second home on the shores of Lake Huron. But when Lackomar visited this week, two state troopers pounded on the door.
“You know you’re not supposed to be here,” Lackomar recalled the trooper saying as he explained Whitmer’s new order, which bans people from traveling between a primary residence and a vacation home. The troopers told the couple to stay put or risk a $1,000 fine or misdemeanor charge.
The interaction led Lackomar to rant on Facebook and then contact a lawyer.
“Sometimes you feel like you have no voice against the big monolithic government,” said Lackomar, who is one of several Michigan residents suing Whitmer. “They are trying to contain the infection, but there is a line. I’m sorry, my rights as an individual don’t always take a back seat to someone else’s fears.”
This guy isn’t protesting the loss of a job or opening the economy. Or his right to assemble. Or his right to worship in a mega church. He is complaining he was asked to stay inside his vacation home to help prevent the possible spread of disease.
Oh, boo f’n hoo. He was asked to stay inside his vacation home. I’m sorry, but his rights as an individual don’t trump public safety.
Added: A Google search reveals this guy is a militiaman which explains a lot.
