There are signs of resistance in California, a state which is still under lockdown as summer wanes on.<\/p>\n

In a video that is going viral on the Internet right now, a military veteran who has reportedly been identified as Carlos Zapata attended the Shasta County Board of Supervisors meeting last week, unmasked in defiance of Governor Newsom\u2019s dictate, and issued a strong warning to the Board:<\/p>\n

I\u2019m telling you guys I\u2019m pretty appalled about what\u2019s going on.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m telling you right now that right now we\u2019re being peaceful, and you\u2019d better be happy that we\u2019re good citizens, that we\u2019re peaceful citizens. But it\u2019s not going to be peaceful much longer.<\/p>\n

And we\u2019re building, we\u2019re organizing, and we\u2019ll work with law enforcement or without law enforcement.<\/p>\n

But you won\u2019t stop us when the time comes because our families are starving.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not going to be peaceful much longer. It\u2019s not going to be ra-ra, it\u2019s not going to be speeches, it\u2019s not going to be standing outside saying the Pledge of Allegiance, it\u2019s not going to be waving flags, it\u2019s going to be real.<\/p>\n

When you\u2019ve seen the things that I\u2019ve seen, I went to war for this country. I\u2019ve seen the ugliest, dirtiest part of humanity. I\u2019ve been in combat, and I never wanted to go back again, but I\u2019m telling you what, I will to save this country\u2026 it will happen, and there\u2019s a million people like me, and you won\u2019t stop us.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Mr. Zapata explains that he lost his business, and that six of his military buddies also lost their jobs, and ended up committing suicide.<\/p>\n

How do you feel about being complicit in perpetuating that? The greatest hoax ever perpetuated against the American people? And you\u2019re part of it by wearing masks. In Shasta County.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
