A large crowd of protesters organized by a conservative group descended on the Michigan’s state Capitol this Wednesday, calling on Gov. Gretchen Whitmer to reopen the state’s economy.

News footage of the protest showed some demonstrators holding signs and chanting slogans on the Capitol steps while others remained in their vehicles, honking their horns. An amusing exchange played out during a news broadcast.

As WOOD TV8‘s Leon Hendrix approached protesters for interviews, he encountered one protester who also happened to be wearing a mask.

The protester, who identified himself as Joseph Dixon, said he was there to support Michigan’s businesses and “stand up for the “rights of our fellow Michiganders,” adding that he believes Gov. Whitmer has “overstepped her rights with our freedoms.”

“Are you concerned about this virus,” Hendrix asked.

3. What is with the interviewer having his mask under his chin as he talks to people?

That entirely weakens his point in asking the repug protestor why he's wearing a mask—a fully deployed on.

4. So the rumpistas protest, but none of us do.

Those here who think we have the next election in the bag should pay attention.

I find this frightening.
