Ohio's GOP Gov. Mike DeWine calls out 'obnoxious' protesters who targeted health chief, news media

‘Come after me’

Republican Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine said he doesn’t like to comment on demonstrations, but on Monday he felt he had to.

Yet another round of protests over the state’s social-distancing rules took place on the capitol grounds in Columbus on Friday. According to WSYX, some protesters tried to open the building’s basement windows and yell into them just as DeWine’s daily briefing began, reminiscent of the protesters who pressed themselves up against the glass at the same building last month. But what really caught the governor’s eye were the people some of the demonstrators were yelling at: reporters and the state health chief.

Videos showed one protester antagonizing an NBC4 Columbus reporter in a face-mask, ignoring the reporter’s requests to stay six feet away while accusing the reporter of “terrifying the general public."

“You know that the company you work for is lying to the American people,” the protester yelled.

They are idiots. They are also store-front christians, anti-vaxxers and they love Trump. In other words, they are the dumbest of the dumb.

They have gotten very nasty with people on Facebook the last week. It's interesting. I'm not on Facebook but my wife provides screenshots.

Their big beef is that the put on estate sales and are pissed about the face mask requirements.

It's funny how a face mask requirements violates their freedom. But forcing a woman to carry a pregnancy to term does not.

Sometimes this world confuses me.

Credit where it's due.

Also, Ohio's death toll went up by 78 today (collected numbers from the weekend). Brutal.
