Orders are not laws! especially coming from a socialist,commi governor. If the business owner was careful about cleaning,customers social distancing, etc- he may have a big lawsuit coming. If he is depending on this income to feed and house his family,he isn't wrong for opening his business. If everyone opened the same day, what are officials going to do? Arrest the whole city? Unfortunately the majority of Paterson people dont care to educate themselves about rights and the Constitution.And are so divided, complacent,it's disgusting.It's a shame.
If people don't wake up,educate themselves and fight they will soon wake up enslaved in communist America, wondering how it could possibly happen, just like what happened to the jews in nazi Germany. Residents here fighting each other instead of the government. Pathetic!
