It’s called Covidism.
It’s the left’s new religion.
Fauxi is their Supreme high priest.
The mask is their symbol and Satan is their god.

Requiring masks should require following OSHA rules.

Right now, the OSHA regulations are being waived. But in normal times, any requirement for the use of PPE requires following a multitude of OSHA regulations. This includes : the company must provide the PPE, the company must dispose of the PPE in a regulated wastestream, the company must have an approved PPE plan on record with OSHA, among others.

Use smartphones, as deaf-mutes have done for years.

I was suppose to return to Lima, Peru in november. That’s not happening.

Despite what the media reports, despite what the democrats and Joe Biden say, it is Peru that has the most covid deaths (per capita - per 1 million population) in the world. The United States is number 10 (possibly number 13 - 15 or even a little lower down the list) if we actually had real numbers out of China, India, Russia and Venezuela (not to mention Cuba and North Korea and probably a few others.

Hopefully I will be able to go in February or March.

The airline has the right to set dress codes and minimum equipment requirements for passengers. If they want you to wear a parachute to fly with them, then you either wear the parachute or you don’t fly.

he saw one of the passengers swing at the other and the passenger who refused to wear a mask was choking the other.

Record this moment in history. The choke that started CW-II..........

Allegiant’s policy is that face shields must be worn in addition to a face covering

No. All they wanted of him was for him to don a mask. The face shield is no longer considered good enough.

The airlines will not come back unless they lighten up on the mask restrictions.

“If they want you to wear a parachute to fly with them, then you either wear the parachute or you don’t fly.”

Actually, the FARs set that type of code. You should know what the hell you’re talking about before speaking like some macho child.

As I read it, a face shield alone is not considered sufficient, but the story doesn’t state explicitly whether a face mask alone is. It’s implied that a face mask alone is OK.

*** “If someone gets shot over not wearing a mask, is it a Covid death?” ***

Probably counted as 2

The masks are BS, but if the airline requires it, you have to wear one.


Why? Are you saying we always have to do what we are “required to do”? Do you have personal limits for that philosophy? “Required to do”… Compliance with that… It’s kind of funny bell curve is it not?.. Maybe, you find being “compliant” easier than someone else will?. But, does that make them wrong?

I know, you are going to say “no shirt, no shoes, no service”.. That privately held companies are entitled to set their own rules. ....Except of course for gender, race, religion… handicapped exceptions…etc.

...you see those “exceptions” came into place because people felt oppressed… And they “pushed back”…

I think this man feels that being forced to wear a face covering is indeed oppression… And he’s pushing back… I say, Good for him. Bravo…

History has proven to us that A strong man… Is never an overly compliant one.

Weak men create bad Times

Bad Times create strong men

Strong men create good times

Good times create weak men....(we are here)....

...Approaching bad times

... We need to check our compliance at the door.

No, *you* don’t get it. Even if the FARs do *not* require parachutes, the airline can still require it as part of their terms of service. They can also require you to wear a Metallica shirt, parachute *pants* or a clown nose if they want.

I think that re-used, dirty cloth (or surgical style) masks have to be much worse for passengers than any virus particles.

No telling WHERE these masks have been.

Disgusting!!

You’re just a childish and angry idiot that has no control of his own life and thinks the world can make demands of others. You see yourself as the one making demands.

No, parachutes cannot be demanded by airlines. If you knew what a FAR was you wouldn’t have made such a childish claim.

There have been airlines that require people to be *naked* to fly with them. The point is that airlines can demand you wear whatever they want for you to fly with them.
