It's a French' (Laundry) Revolution.

You cant make it with that 10% takeout, no worry, sell that plate of pasta and cheese for $100 instead of the normal $30, people will still buy it, I promise

RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE! Fight the power.

I totally agree with restaurants wanting to defy orders that they should ban outdoor dining. The worthless federal and state governments have given most Americans $1200 for the better part of the year as stimulus money, but quickly gave $5 trillion to big corporations. If the government will not give you enough to live on if you are not able to work, what the hell should you do, just sit home and starve?!

The governor is taking kickbacks from Walmart.
“Together, we can crush small businesses, and together, we can make a lot of money.” -Newsom talking to Walmart.

Send a bill to the county let the county pay for your lack of revenue coming in

Newsom is going to be worshiping at that temple on the daily.

[MrManuel]

We need to keep our restaurant open .... outside open

[RC-tniz]

Yeah keep businesses closed, but allow NBA and NFL to play. Keep hearing PLANdemic!

Praise Be; when is the French laundry temple gonna open?!?

[karflo]

I completely support small business. However, what is frustrated annoying about this report are the residents who refuse to wear masks —- just like the 2 women holding up signs!!! Bunch of selfish people!!!

I am giving the middle finger to Governor Nuisance. I will patronize these restaurants. Count me in.

[DwnRace]

I will support these businesses! Politicians aren’t helping anyone just themselves! Remember our taxes pay them! Their just parasites!

[kennybarnes]

Don't even open with the health guidelines. Just open up. They have already slapped you in the face when you did do everything they told you to do. Don't even obey none of that stuff open.

[jsEMCsquared]

maybe they can get the 1 percenters in Blackhawk to pay their share of taxes?

[hellybellybelly]

Millionaire Newsome issuing edicts that he won't follow!! Typical for a career politician!!

[ethanrico]

Stand up and show them they have no control of the people!

[SANTOS-hsst]

Newsom literately lost all his power lol I wonder what how his face gonna be when goes live 😭😭😭

[Nise_R]

PROUD OF THESE BUSINESS AS MORE STAY OPEN, OTHERS WILL FOLLOW. It is unconstitutional what Newsom is doing. Those who fear the virus so much, it is SIMPLE: Stick with buying online or going to the grocery store for "essentials". U keep your freedom. We will keep ours.
