With stay-at-home orders becoming the new normal for people across the United States, some are taking to the streets to protest restrictions they say have gone too far—and Joy Behar has some choice words for them.

Behar reacted to reports of protestors in Michigan violating Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s stay-at-home order on Thursday’s episode of The View.

“I’d like to ask them if they’re willing to sign away their right to treatment if and when they get infected,” she said. “Are you going to say ‘okay, I don’t need a ventilator because I thought I should go out and defy the governor’s order?’” she asked.

She continued, “I’d like to know if people in states that are following the guidelines—like people like us in New York—can be sure that these people don’t come here.”
