In these troubling times, some people have taken it upon themselves to add even more stress to our government. According to 'Fox6.com', "Protesters assemble in Brookfield, want 'Safer at Home' restrictions dropped." In Brookfield, thousands of people lined the streets to protest Gov. Evers extension of the "Safer At Home" policy, now going until May 26th. Completely ignoring the CDCs advice to stay 6 feet apart and wear mask in public, they lined up holding 'patriotic' signs, many toward the Govnor, even though he was not the one who put the extension in order. The protest lasted a few hours and took up miles of sidewalk. Different people where protesting for different reasons, ranging from understandable to a bit absurd. Some people were calling for the re-opening of small business in order to help the economy, others felt as if their constitutional rights were being violated. The police didn't do much, they simply sat and watched.

Although it has been proven that the "Safer-At-Home" method has been working, many U.S citizens have chosen to ignore it. But, was has become worrisome is how many U.S citizens have began taking place in these protest. So far they have been popping up all over the U.S, and some people have even brought their confederate flags and guns with them. Many think this is a big government conspiracy to create "silent slavery" (which is interesting considering 99.99 percent of these protestors are white). It's also interesting that most of the protestors are older, which is alarming because they are the exact people who need to be at home.
