Old-school heavy metal. Rock and roll. The song selection was less about musical preference and more about what caused the largest ruckus.
"Why do you hate Ohioans so much?" a man yelled through a loudspeaker, carrying a stick affixed with two flags: the Ohio Burgee
and the yellow "Don't Tread on Me" flag, a symbol of limited government and gun rights.
The crowd gathered outside Republican Gov. Mike DeWine's Cedarville estate wasn't filled with Democrats protesting his signature on one of the nation's most restrictive abortion laws or his support of "stand your ground" gun legislation.
Instead, they were fellow Republicans flouting the governor's COVID-19 restrictions.
