Demonstrators drove thousands of vehicles -- many draped with protest signs -- to Michigan's state Capitol today (April 15, 2020), loudly protesting Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's stay-at-home order intended to fight the coronavirus pandemic, according to the USA Today website.
Police watched as horns honked and commercial and private vehicles from around the state jammed Capitol Avenue and other streets surrounding Michigan's seat of government in Lansing.
"Liberty once lost is lost forever." read a sign draped across a commercial van. "Recall Whitmer," read another sign.
Whitmer said today she respects the right to protest, but believes many of the protesters put themselves and others at risk of contracting COVID-19.
