Mean while in S.C. Michigan the school that Law And Order dubbed Midvale College

is bringing up to 3,000 people to town despite health departments wishes. The wholly owned city council and police department signed off on it. I'm not shocked, the college has the sweetest scam of any small college going. Betting this weekend will be a bonanza in contributions. I hope they don't donate the crud from the states they come from. We have plenty of our own. Students were out on break mostly, when Mi. issued closure orders. Being the assholes they are they asked students not to return. They stated it was their decision because Gretchen didn't have the authority to tell them what to do. So here we are. The local authorities have handled this whole thing abysmally from the beginning. First defying public meeting ban then telling local merchants they could stay open. Mayor has also encouraged known risky behaviors.

Apparently yesterday Health Dept visited some. businesses that weren't enforcing the mask rule. I think most got warnings but a gym was shut down. Mayor spent the day on facebook whining that the Health Department was just being vindictive because we have freedom here. A couple businesses closed themselves down for weekend probably because they didn't want the rich college trash bringing them an unexpected gift. I reminded the Mayor that he had painted the target on the merchants back with his actions and words. Haven't heard a word from him.

That's when I knew that my inclination to approve of Gretchen was correct...
