ATLANTA (AP) — A member of the Georgia state House was removed from the chamber Tuesday for not abiding by the legislature’s COVID-19 testing policy.

Rep. David Clark, a Republican from Buford, was asked to leave the chamber floor by House Speaker David Ralston. Clark refused to leave on his own and had to be escorted out by police.

They react the same for refusing an HIV/aids test too, correct?

I do not want to wear a mask at all. When I was in Houston with a cancer patient, I wore a mask. But I believe all the fuss has been used politically and seeing everyone obeying the orders ... it must be comforting for those who have the desire to control.... to see the masks. Success so far... now on to the next forbidden item.

I know I’m out of sinc with most of society.. but I do not want government telling me how to go about my daily life...
My g grandfather died in the 1918 flu.. it changed the lives in the family... but I still do not want government to take anything and use it against us. We may never know the truth of what all has gone down in the past year.

I know a member of my family is in assisted living and has not touched her daughters for a year.... that is not right! She has tested positive for the virus and is not sick..
None of that makes any sense.

“Wear the damn mask”

I’ll bet you’d like to force everyone to wear a mask, wouldn’t you?

Not at all. I just think it’s a stupid move on his part.

Masks are next to worthless. Unless they are all magical. Good for catching water droplets, until the water evaporates and any virus would be free again to suck in, or push out.

Why, if masks work as they claim then just wear yours and enjoy the magik protection of the mask regardless of what others do.

COVID "testing" is worse than useless; it's misleading virtue signaling. One of Doctor McGillicudy's 60 proof elixirs would protect you more than a mask and door testing.

You're walking to the building and someone coughs the Wuhanic Plague all over you. They take your temperature at the door but you haven't gotten a fever yet. You freely spread the Wuhanic Plague all over everybody inside but it's okay - YOU WERE TESTED ON THE WAY IN.

BS. I love it! He should run the same freedom loving physical autonomy drill all day, everyday because the GOP will never win another statewide election because the election integrity lights have gone out in Georgia!

Blue 2 loop masks are not effect against virus transmission. It is even on the box of most manufacturers.

My body. My choice.
Refuse the damn mask.
It’s not a stunt; it’s an expression of free speech.

FREEEEEEEDOOOOOM!!!!!!!

We are NOT farm animals to be poked, prodded, harnessed, and forced experimental drugs, or any drugs, upon.

We have been frogs in boiling water so long our brains are turning to mush.

When Kemp gave the senate seat to the woman instead of Doug Collins, I lay the blame for the dems having the Senate to that decision. He then refused to help get things right in the state... what in the world got into the man? Abrams was the other choice and I thought she was bad news for conservatism. Kemp made some bad decisions.... if he knew better, why didn’t he do the right thing...If he didn’t know how to get it right... then why did he campaign for the job!

I will not wear your stupid mask.
Keep pushing and you'll wear a cast.

I will not wear it here or there.

I will not wear it anywhere.

It restricts my breathing

It restricts my vision.

Wearing it may cause collisions.

I've already had it you stupid git.

So make some tracks or you'll get lit.

Just as planned. Dr. Falsie(spelling intended) has played his role.

Asinine policy.

I’m an ER doctor. I’ve never been tested for Covid because thankfully I have yet to develop any symptoms I thought warranted it. At this point I’ve provided care to hundreds with confirmed cases and intubated several.

They’re just testing for the sake of it. It’s a waste of resources and pointless. I have no problem with people pushing back against nonsense like this particularly since our tax money is paying for a lot of these tests.
