Hobby Lobby defies shutdown orders, reopens some stores

As Hobby Lobby continues its mission to keep doors open in the face of the coronavirus, the arts-and-crafts retailer is quietly reopening stores around the country, defying states' stay-at-home policies.
On Monday, the company resumed business in several states where it had been forced to temporarily close. A March 28 memo obtained by Business Insider equipped managers with talking points for "how to respond and communicate if visited by a local authority that asks why we are open."
In a separate leaked note sent early last week, executives wrote that the company "is going to make every effort to continue working the employees."
The reopenings include stores in Ohio and Wisconsin - which both enacted strict shelter-in-place orders on March 24 - where nearly all Hobby Lobby locations have been reopened after shuttering for only one week. During calls made to each location by Business Insider, employees confirmed that all 19 Hobby Lobby locations in Ohio were open as of Monday afternoon, as were 17 out of 20 stores in Wisconsin that were still listed as "temporarily closed" on Google.

God bless them and their management.

Corporations are people. I’m sure some sherif will attempt to serve a warrant to the physical store.

Would love to see a well-funded lawsuit taken all the way to the SCOTUS.
At least we'll see the sketchy international law basis these "Pandemic" transfers of power employ.

Screw these shutdown orders. If people want to stay home then let them. If you stay home, and don’t go out and see family and friends, then you can’t get it. Why do I have to stay home for you.

Should be up to them if they think it's worth their operating costs

Hobby Lobby seems to have become the hero of the resurgent Right Wing in America. First, they defied LGBTQ. Now they’re taking on Covid-19 and the overreaching globalist police state, not to mention the MSM and Prog filth in general. Oh and the GOPe. Did I leave anything out? They’re all about KAGA!

This will be a coming trend.
Please tell me how allowing illegals with unknown diseases into sanctuary cites an having open borders is ok, but it’s not ok to open businesses?

JoAnnes and Michael's also both stayed open along with Hobby Lobby
But the media doesn't want to report that, because they like to make Hobby Lobby the "evil Right Wing company" because little shits like you eat it up with the smug arse finger pointing
But carry on
