I edited the above to remove the weird paragraph breaks that always happen with copy and paste, and I highlighted the relevant section in orange. I made no other changes and the original text can be seen here.
It does require that the Governor put the state into a State of Health Emergency first, but we already proved that’s not a problem to arrange.
There is SO MUCH room for abuse here.
Keep trying libtards, soon you WILL hit just the right button that starts the shooting and piling of the dead. Is this gonna be it?
