Do you remember the NJ gym owners who defied the mandates and opened their gym anyway? And remember they got in trouble for it. Well, years later one of the owners, Ian Smith, is announcing a major court victory. And just think, for a moment - if other stores could be open with tons of people going in and out, then there's no reason a small gym couldn't be open. The mandates were ridiculous and everyone knows this. Ian Smith reported the following, with a nice little joke at the end for the NJ governor:
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT - PLEASE SHARE THIS THIS POST.
4 years ago today, we reopened Atilis Gym in direct violation of an unconstitutional order by Governor Philip Murphy to close small businesses in New Jersey.
The support we received locally, nationally, and internationally for our stand is something I will be forever grateful for.
With that being said, I am thrilled to announce that we have achieved a major victory in the long, hard fight against the State.
ALL OF THE 80+ municipal citations of violations of a governor's order, public nuisance, disturbing the peace, and operating without a license against us have been dropped by the courts WITH prejudice. This means the State has NO ability to revist or refile these charges.
This victory opens the battlefield again and gives us options to continue to push back and bring justice to the treasonous actions of Phil Murphy and his lackies.
Again, thank you to all who supported us. We could not have done it without you.
Special thanks to our fearless attorneys - John McCann and Giancarlo Ghione. Some of the most high profile attorneys around the country ran from our case - knowing it would be a long, hard road and would make them a target of the stare. These two gentlemen stood with us through the darkest days of the storm, have not flinched, and never once cared about being in front of cameras to gain notoriety from their work.
More updates later.
Nobody is coming to save you, save yourself. Spit on your hands and hoist the black flag. No quarter.?
Suck my dick Phil Murphy.
