With stay-at-home orders becoming the new normal for people across the United States, some are taking to the streets to protest restrictions they say have gone too farand Joy Behar has some choice words for them.
Behar reacted to reports of protestors in Michigan violating Gov. Gretchen Whitmers stay-at-home order on Thursdays episode of The View.
Id like to ask them if theyre willing to sign away their right to treatment if and when they get infected, she said. Are you going to say okay, I dont need a ventilator because I thought I should go out and defy the governors order? she asked.
She continued, Id like to know if people in states that are following the guidelineslike people like us in New Yorkcan be sure that these people dont come here.

No willing just should be done.
This wasnt accidental behavior, it was purposeful and wanton disregard of an health related state order.
