Sheriff Sends Gov. a Wake-up Call: 'This Is Not Nazi Germany'

The coronavirus cannot kill the spirit of American defiance in the face of government orders Americans believe to be unjust, as shown by Scott Nichols, the sheriff of Franklin County, Maine.
Democratic Gov. Janet Mills on Friday issued an executive order that requires all out-of-state travelers to self-quarantine for 14 days to lessen the chance of transmitting coronavirus, according to the Portland Press-Herald. The order also tells would-be visitors not to come to Maine if they have symptoms of the virus. Violators could face up to six months in jail and $1,000 fine.
“While I cannot simply close the state’s border or pull up the Maine-New Hampshire bridge, as a few people have suggested, I will insist that persons entering our state or returning to Maine from somewhere else that they self-quarantine for 14 days,” Mills said, according to the Press-Herald.
“For those people who come to Maine, however, my message is clear: You cannot escape the virus by coming here.”
Like other governors who closed businesses, Mills shut down hotels, motels and other lodging operations in the state, including RV parks and campgrounds.
Steve McCausland, spokesman for the Maine Department of Public Safety, said police will investigate reports of “blatant” violations.
To Nichols, a Republican, the travel ban smacked of the kind of government Americans fight against and not obey, and he posted his manifesto on the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office’s Facebook page.
“We will not be setting up a Police State. PERIOD,” he wrote.
“The Sheriff’s Office will not purposefully go out and stop vehicles because they are on the road or stop and ask why people are out and about. To do so puts our officers at risk. This is not Nazi Germany or Soviet Russia where you are asked for your papers!” he wrote.

Nichols said the sheriff’s office will ensure that common-sense social distancing rules will be enforced.
“What we will take action on, if needed – are those rare situations where there are a lot of people overtly hanging out in public – obviously in defiance of the Governor’s order. Even in that case – we will first educate and try to disperse the group. We will avoid arrests unless absolutely necessary,” he said.
Nichols then issued a plea for everyone to work together.
“Please use common sense during this executive order. We are more interested in the safety and well-being of the public as well as our officers at this time,” he wrote. “With that being said, we are sworn to uphold the Constitution and laws of the State – for any unlawful act/situation, arrestees will be taken into custody and transported for fingerprinting and bail.”
The sheriff said that obey restrictions is the best way to be rid of them.
“The best way to approach the coming days is to treat everyone as though they have the virus. Follow strict CDC guidelines and recommendations, use masks if needed, wash your hands frequently, disinfect, wear gloves and use common sense in all situations. The longer we do NOT follow these guidelines, the longer we wait in isolation,” he said.
In a time of tension, he noted, a little kindness goes a long way.
“Please look out for one another, especially the elderly and shut ins. Please be a good neighbor/citizen always showing compassion. Please be kind especially on social media, negativity online only adds to the stress people are currently experiencing,” he wrote. Nichols signed his post “Of the People, For the People.”
It got plenty of attention.

In an article on PJ Media, writer Megan Fox commended Nichols.
“The sheriffs of America have great power and authority where unconstitutional executive overreach is concerned. All the sheriffs of our nation should start conferencing with Sheriff Nichols immediately to learn more about the limits of their offices,” she wrote.
“Frankly, I’m surprised it took this long for one to come forward with this common-sense response to unlawful acts by state officials. Perhaps a good exercise for people stuck on lockdown would be to call their local sheriff’s office and find out where the local sheriff stands on this very important issue of the people’s rights,” she wrote.

Nazi Germany was a dictatorship. If you spoke against the Nazi regime you would be arrested and sent to the camps.

Dr. Otto Warburg was his personal physician. He was studying cancer. He was also making speeches against the Nazis.
The SS wanted to take him to the camps. But they received a personal call from Hitler telling them, "Allow him to go back to his work."
Warburg discovered a cure for cancer. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine. But Hitler refused to allow him to pick it up because of the war. If he never picked it up, he forfeited and they awarded it to someone else.
The AMA covered this all up to keep people on expensive and ineffective chemotherapy. :-/

But it doesn't say he was Hitler's dr. Where are you getting these historical facts? Incidentally, Otto is the least-jew looking Warburg I've seen -- no wonder he was a medical genius.

I did a lot of reading when younger, especially historical facts.
Did you ever hear of a Slovenian Waffen SS Commander named Odilo Globo nik?
He would rob the Jews of their gold, kill them and then dispose of the bodies. He buried his treasure all around eastern Europe. Most of it was recovered. But one place turned out to be a parking lot. Much of that gold was returned to its rightful owners. Not sure about all of it though. ;)

I have no idea.
But when Roosevelt abrogated the gold standard, the smart people kept their gold for their progeny since they saw thru the scam. ;)

And during that time, if you had a safe deposit box at the bank and went to get access, there was a Treasury agent there to see if you had any gold in that box. Many people kept 400 oz bars of gold in those boxes. ;)

I wonder.... the feds demanded ppl sell them their gold, after which the price shot up --right? So if they caught you owning it after that point did the fedgoons just steal it from you, pay you market price or what?

I would imagine if it was a violation of the law you might just lose it outright.
But then nobody ever said E.O.s were a part of the law. And those E.O.s only applied to federal employees. But the fact they would be violating any order would be overlooked by the courts since they are in cahoots too. :-/

The first thing Trump did in the Oval Office was to reverse all of Obama's unlawful E.O.s.
If it were Hildabeast sitting there, the Clinton Crime Cult would be in full swing and our precious liberties would be curtailed even further. ;)

By some miracle -- like maybe whites seeing the chips were down and voting right for once -- we seem to be living thru the suicide of the Dumbocrat Party. They just dig 'emselves in deeper every chance they get! There's talk they might even skip having a convention.

EDIT: Thinking about her taking a dump in an outhouse mid-winter during a blizzard did give me a chuckle, but then I thought a little more and realized we are in the middle of the same sort of social engineering project. Prior to the Depression Americans seemed to be a sturdy bunch that were quite independent and skeptical of government. The Depression wherein millions died of starvation stripped them of their independence and caused them to be more compliant. The Depression was a fraud brought about by the banker elite to steal America's wealth and make obedient subjects out the population.
This virus is another man-made machination of the banker clique along with Bill Gates and his eugenics ilk for the purpose of doing to the world what the shit stirring bankers did to America in 1929. Soon thereafter we went to war ... China and America are bumping heads as I post this response.
