New Mexico blocks all roads into Gallup, a 'frightful' hot spot where virus runs 'amok'

New Mexico blocked roads into the city of Gallup, with the state's governor saying tougher measures were needed in a county where "the virus is running amok." 
The state police and the New Mexico National Guard have put a stop to traffic on all roads into Gallup, which borders the Navajo Nation, where at least 44 people have died of coronavirus. 
The American Indian territory has the the third-highest infection rate in the country behind the states of New York and New Jersey. 
“The spread of this virus in McKinley County is frightful,” Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham upon issuing the order Friday under New Mexico's Riot Control Act. “It shows that physical distancing has not occurred and is not occurring." 
"The virus is running amok there," she said. "It must be stopped, and stricter measures are necessary. A problem in one part of our state, with a virus this dangerous and this contagious, is a problem for our entire state."
SO APPARENTLY THEY THINK THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH THIS BECAUSE IT IS "AMERICAN INDIAN TERRITORY.

THEY DIDN'T BLOCK ALL ROADS IN AND OUT OF NEW YORK, DID THEY?

FUCK MICHELLE GRISHAM.

THE LAST ENGLISH PRINCE COMMENTS:
Gallup is a commercial hub for groceries for more remote areas. You might die of COVID19 or you might die of starvation. 
Tin pot dictators. Elections are looming. Citizens will take note.

Problematic, is that Gallup is a commercial hub for groceries for more remote areas.

You might die of COVID19 or you might die of starvation.

Tin pot dictators. Elections are looming. Citizens will take note.

Tin pot dictators, indeed, and they are killing communities all over the country. Watch what that harridan of a governor in Maine does to the hospitality industry that supports miles and miles of Route One there, coastal towns dating back to the Revolution that she is going to put out of business BECAUSE SHE CAN.

And god only knows what RINO Marxachusetts governor Charlie Baker will do to Cape Cod. This is equal opportunity tin pot dictator territory now.

Two months ago when all this started I had a horrible feeling that nothing would ever be the same again. Sometimes you just hate being right. I just hope enough of those citizens really are taking note.
