Honestly, it doesn't matter. Part of the job Whitmer signed up for is deescalation, and so far I haven't seen any indication her office is willing to even hear these people out. We already have mayors and sheriff offices refusing to enforce her orders. Even the State House has filed a lawsuit because of her extending her own emergency powers to the end of the month via executive order. Cracks are beginning to form. Preventing people from earning a living will be interpreted as an attack on their rights. If she continues to press this armed insurrection, albeit local, may soon follow.
