As they should. Governor Kristi Noem is a star. Noem was attacked relentlessly by the Left, because she wisely chose to not shutdown her state. That is why South Dakota is in much better economic shape today than most other states. You will be hearing a-lot from Governor Noem in the years to come.
South Dakota Throws Parade For Governor Kristi Noem Who Declined To Shut State Amid Pandemic
By Newsweek, April 28, 2020:
Story continues below advertisementRepublican South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem had an impromptu parade thrown in her honor on Tuesday in the capitol city of Pierre. A local construction company organized the parade to show appreciation for her handling of the coronavirus epidemic.
Noem, the state’s first female governor, was one of a handful of governors not to issue an order shuttering non-essential businesses during the ongoing epidemic.
The parade, organized by John Morris of Morris Inc. construction company, featured “literally hundreds of cars,” fire trucks and other vehicles honking their horns and sirens while Noem watched, apparently surprised, from a local park.
Governor Noem shared video of the event on her Twitter account along with the words, “I am so blessed to serve the people of the great State of South Dakota. You folks made my day!”

Morris told Newsweek that he and his wife came up with the parade as a way to let the governor to know that state residents support her.
“We just felt bad that the leadership of our state was kind of getting lambasted for her decision [not to close the state]. In South Dakota when somebody’s getting discouraged or down on their luck, that’s what we do: We step up for each other.”
Morris and his wife reportedly organized the parade by sending out “hundreds of text messages” to local friends and business owners. By one of his employee’s count, roughly 230 vehicles participated, driving a four-block route from a local high school, past the governor’s residence to the capitol building.

Just as a comparison…The whole state has somewhere around 1/10th the population of NYC, the population is spread out, and there’s no where near the domestic and foreign travel. There’s only a few states or territories with less people and some of them probably have a higher population density. If any states could avoid a lockdown South Dakota would be one of them.

On the other end of the spectrum we have Gavin “Mao Tse New” Newsome.that has shut down every county in the state. A complete show of power by the leftists and something we should all fear. The small towns like Murphy’s, Angels Camp, Sonora, Copperopolis, Sutter Creek where there were maybe 2 infections total suffered from the decision of the California governor. HOORAY FOR GUV NOEM!!!!

Governor Noem actually looks like a human being. Unlike the one auditioning for the role of Maleficent in a road production of “Sleeping Beauty,” who unfortunately now occupies the governor’s house in Michigan. (And who looks like she’s had a bit too much Botox, herself.)

No state should have “Locked Down”.. It’s the exact wrong thing to do medically.. It was a plandemic.. Months before Covid 19. came to life.. Laws were passed to handle it….YES laws already on the books in late 2019…

Besides the FACT that any form of “lockdown” is a direct violation of the Constitution and anyone “enforcing” a “lockdown” is guilty of Treason.

† Jesus † our saviour has shown us the way.
† Jesus † told us chiefly to be pure and pray.
Prayer can strengthen magnetic fields as they lay.
Our magnetic fields protect us from bad rays.
Magnetic fields also gathers † Mana † from † Heaven †.
† Mana † consists of alchemic subatomic particles.
† Mana † has the power to turn lead into gold.
† Heaven † is the centre of our Milky Way.
† Heaven’s † wave oscillates every ±12000 years.
At the beginning of 2020 we got hit by this wave.
This wave will last another 10 to 40 years.
This wave is causing Earth’s magnetic field to weaken.
With Earth’s protection weakening more will get sick.
But this devastating wave is filled with † Mana †.
We must now strengthen our own magnetic fields.
The purer our bodies the more † Mana † absorbed.
The more † Mana † absorbed the purer our bodies.
The purer our bodies the more powerful our prayers.
Powerful prayers can create powerful magnetic fields.
Powerful magnetic fields will protect us from evil.
Do not let them take our power away.
So let’s all join hands and † Pray †.

We have been hit with a spiritual genocide which enslave the human spirit. We have been stripped of the right to make our own choices and which risks to incur. I will risk it all, for freedom.

I believe social distancing and masks should be under the purview of the individual. If I do not want to mask, so be it. If I do not want to attend a party, the same. If I want to lock myself down and never leave my home – my choice. We are seeing the stress create new forms of mental illness. Shooting at a Mickey D’s in Oklahoma? Stress-induced response.
I have always believed the covering of facial features (like with Muslim women) causes social harm. Now we have done it, damn it, to everyone, including small children.

Unfortunately,the good people of South Dakota as well as other states that aretaling a sane approach to combatting the CCP Virus will have to pay for the idiocy of Cuomo, Newsom, Pritzker and their ilk.
