Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers said the state was the "Wild West" on Wednesday night after the Wisconsin Supreme Court blocked an extension of his stay-at-home order. The Democratic state leader told MSNBC that judges had created "chaos" in Wisconsin by voting 4-3 against the extension of state lockdown measures until May 26. Wisconsin Supreme Court judges ruled on Wednesday that his stay-at-home extension was "unlawful, invalid and unenforceable."

"The Wild West?" "Chaos?" People going about their lives with no "restrictions?" "We can't have "no restrictions!" People doing whatever they want! The very idea!
It's easy to see how power corrupts!

Wild west will be when these people get a chance to vote against these governors, mayors, congressmen and judges who think they are our rulers!

WGN's report says local governments, including Milwaukee and Kenosha County, have issued their own stay-at-home orders. That doesn't sound chaotic or unreasonable to me. Let the healthier parts of the state (and the nation) reopen.

Dems hate it when law trumps their autocratic whims. The worst thing is when they whine about losing.

If it's that bad, governor, open up the National Guard armories and start handing out M-16s to every adult who wants one with the requirement that they carry it everywhere they go.

Gov. Evers mistakes his job for one requiring him to control the people of Wisconsin. I don' think that is it, sir.

Just the opposite, dear Guvnah. It means the Executive and Legislative branches need to follow The Constitution not dictate by edict.

I'm amazed that Wisconsin folks have taken to having the bars closed for two months. If Governor Doofus restricts the seating for the Packers at Lambeau Field or the Badgers at Camp Randall, I would be extremely disappointed in the residents of my native home state if they do not riot in the streets.

I live in WI. Seems pretty normal to me. Everybody's just going about their business. Unless you're in Madison. Then things are normally abnormal

Evers has thrown himself to the ground and is kicking and screaming like a child whose mommy wouldn't buy him a candy bar in the checkout lane. Typical behavior by Rats who are denied the ability to lord themselves over us all.

Evers has shown himself to be a little tyrant. He issued his draconian quarantine order a day after my state rep. told us that Evers had assured leaders in the legislature that he didn’t feel it was necessary. The legislature tried to work with him to negotiate re-opening the state, but he refused and unilaterally extended his order until May 26. The legislature sued and the state Supreme Court correctly struck down his order. While the case was pending the legislature tried to work with Evers to settle the case and he refused, saying to wait for the court decision. So now we do have chaos as mayors and county executives have unilaterally issued a patchwork of local quarantine orders.
This is lunacy. My county has 183,000 people, and still has less than 100 confirmed cases and 6 deaths.

Yup! The Wild West were the good old days when men were men and women were glad of it! And, we all carried a .45 Colt on our belt and a Winchester carbine at our side. Good times! Freedom is Chaos to a Tyrant! Always has been...always will be! The ruling has scared our pathetic MN Governor to reopen parts of our state or risk being sued himself! I think we can get a haircut...at least? Wow...THANKS DAD!!! I'm NEVER going back into a lockdown! EVER!

If only it were the 'wild' West. In that reality this punk would be very lucky to be alive at this point.
