Meet Audrey Whitlock, the right-wing, anti-quarantine activist from North Carolina. She’s just tested positive for COVID-19.
Whitlock helped organize the Reopen North Carolina March last week. The protests saw hundreds of state residents take to the streets to protest Governor Roy Cooper’s stay at home orders, scheduled to last until May 8.
Now CBS17 reports that Whitlock has revealed that she has tested positive for COVID-19, though she claims to have no symptoms. She also claims that her forced 14-day home quarantine orders violate her constitutional rights.

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“The reality is that modern society has not been able to eradicate contagious viruses,” Whitlock posted on Facebook. “A typical public health quarantine would occur in a medical facility. I have been told not to participate in public or private accommodations as requested by the government, and therefore denied my 1st amendment right of freedom of religion.”
“It has been insinuated by others that if I go out, I could be arrested for denying a quarantine order,” Whitlock added.
Apparently Ms. Whitlock doesn’t realize (or doesn’t care) that even if she has no symptoms, she can pass COVID-19 to others who could potentially die of the virus. She also doesn’t seem to realize that in emergency situations like a global pandemic, the government has the power to restrict personal liberties to prevent further spread of the virus. Whitlock claims that she has not attended any ReopenNC rallies. It’s also unclear if she’s been retested to see if she still has the virus.
More than 300 people have died of the coronavirus in North Carolina alone, with another reported 8,000 infections. Anti-quarantine protesters have been criticized for creating a dangerous situation where COVID-19 can spread, as well as for ties to far-right ideology.

It’s adorable that the same right wingers who claim the government doesn’t have the right to pass any law that would restrict them, also vote for more prison funding and stricter sentencing guidelines.
In other words, they want everybody else to be subject to rules, just not themselves. Typical self centered, anti-American Republican.

Waiting for the inevitable story of Right-Wing ‘Anti-Lockdown’ Protester who files a lawsuit for catching COVID-19 after attending a Rally. We all know that’s gonna happen.

I wouldn’t shed any tears if she becomes quite ill and dies.

Well good for her. She has proven that no matter what happens we must work. She can’t see for the life of her the slave mentality that she is promoting by insisting that whether one is sick or not we must all go back work and stop the government handouts. Never mind (to her) the possibility that if you aren’t already sick you may get sick and die, we must go back to work and help master keep his businesses afloat and pay us our pittance so that we can keep the hypocritical belief that as long as we get up and work and pay the criminal healthcare premiums we will all be better off. I do hope everyone at her local hospital knows who she is and acts accordingly. I think a parade every morning of the staff holding pictures of all the dead first responders outside her first floor hospital room would be appropriate and the staff be busy when it comes time to change her bed pan.

Dayum Sister Bertha, that was both poetic and dark – to add to your vivid description, perhaps the staff can also bringing in Lady Bunny so she can throw glitter at the btch every morning.

Hussain, not to go off topic but trust me, were Obama still in office the number of deaths of white southerners would be in the hundreds of thousands. The first thing they would have been hellbent to prove is the you know what is not going to tell us we can’t work. If you look at the protesters who were in their SUV’s yelling out the windows you would have seen a lot of high end cars whose owners are stretched so thin financially they will be underwater for years to come, just like the rest of us. Yes, Trump did tell the landlords they could not evict tenants and the utilities they can not turn off service but he did not say that debt was forgiven. Thats what scares them. Their belief that the castle in the sky that they built on the legs of credit was immune but that has proven not to be true. Like all the rest of us, they too are scared and can’t believe that they too are now living like the very people they were taught to despise, welfare recipients. I’ll bet there won’t be many welfare jokes cracked this year around the Thanksgiving table.
