"We will not comply."

ORCHARD PARK, New York (PNN) - November 28, 2020 - Robby Dinero, the owner of Athletes Unleashed Gym located in Orchard Park, New York, tore up a $15,000 fine from the Erie County Health Department during a live Fox News interview.

Dinero got hit with the extraordinarily hefty fine following a confrontation in which roughly 50 business owners attending a meeting inside the gym refused to allow a pair of sheriffs and a health inspector entry to the building without a warrant, as is their legal right.

"They picked a fight with a Marine and a whole bunch of patriots," the gym owner said, before pointing out, “The Constitution protects those rights.”

Dinero, speaking with Fox anchor Sandra Smith, reiterated that fascist Governor Andrew Cuomo’s unconstitutional and unlawful lockdown edicts infringe upon his rights.

The veteran, having pointed out Cuomo’s and Erie County Executive Mark C. Poloncarz’s six-figure taxpayer-funded salaries, challenged them to look their constituents’ children in the eyes and tell them their parents’ work is not “essential”.

The unlawful lockdown rules, he believes, deny citizens their constitutional right to earn a living.

Dinero then ripped up the fine on camera while supporters behind waved American flags and shouted, “We will not comply.”

Last week, Dinero held a meeting with business owners inside his gym. He explained that the meeting was a protest of New York’s regulations that have closed gyms, salons, and other businesses deemed by fascist officials to be nonessential.

Oddly enough, despite the state’s blind eye to riots under the guise of “protests” over the summer, authorities took issue with this particular peaceful protest. Sheriffs and the health inspector showed up and things escalated as the business owners refused to let them on the property without a proper warrant.

"Get out! Get out!" they yelled.

As the authorities left, one protester could be heard shouting, "Take your Commie s*** elsewhere!"

Cuomo has been unlawfully regulating everything in his state during the “pandemic”, from what time New Yorkers can eat in restaurants to what they can eat in restaurants, and on to what people can do in their own homes. His constitutional overreach has prompted several sheriffs to refuse to enforce his unlawful, dictatorial orders.

Cuomo responded by calling any sheriff who refuses to enforce his unlawful edicts a “dictator”. He said that without a hint of irony.
