Yup. At some point pretty soon Trump needs to fire Fauci and start calling out the B.S.

I am guessing he’s waiting until the case/death ratio gets so far out of whack that even the most dogged Fearbro won’t be able to support their arguments.

We already quaranteened the healthy.

Now they want health people to breathe through a filter to make others more comfortable while they yell ASYMPTOMATIC! ASYMPTOMATIC!

Taste of Sicily is going to fight their case in court, and I think the Pennsylvania health commissioner’s unsuccessful attempt to shut down the Carlisle Auto Show a couple of weeks ago may bode well for them. In that case, a state judge basically laughed the PA lawyers out of her courtroom. She pointed out that their claims about the health risks of large crowds of people without face masks were ludicrous in light of all the photo and video evidence showing the governor marching with hordes of people at a BLM protest with no mask on.

“This is a democracy not a dictatorship.”

Um, no. It’s not!

Independence Day Primer.

In case you don’t know the difference; A REPUBLIC is representative government ruled by law (The Constitution). A DEMOCRACY is direct government ruled by the majority (mob rule). A REPUBLIC recognizes the inalienable rights of INDIVIDUALS while DEMOCRACIES are only concerned with group wants or needs.

A ‘Democracy’ is the next best thing TO a Dictatorship!

Yes, I know. But as we near Independence Day, people NEED to understand the difference. Especially our elected officials who play fast and lose with their words!

Life is fatal.

But we’ve had a great miracle!

No one is dying of heart attacks.
No one is dying of stroks
No one is dying of diabetic complications.

COVID has cured it all!

Hallelujah! /S

I wear an effective mask (not when driving alone or walking outside), wear a seatbelt, get vaccinated. Nobody has to force me to do these things. I’m not the least concerned about the consequences others might face choosing to do otherwise.

Kalifornia is slightly different.

Hitler had SS troops---Newsom has ST troops:

California Creates ‘Strike Teams’ To Enforce Virus Limits California is creating “strike teams” from 10 state agencies to enforce guidelines designed to slow the spread of the coronavirus, Gov. Gavin Newsom said Wednesday. He said the teams would “go after people that are thumbing their nose, that are particularly being aggressive, reticent to do anything.” He singled out bars, restaurants, meat packing plants and other facilities that he said may be putting employees as well as customers at risk. The teams include representatives from the California Highway Patrol; the Division of Occupational Safety and Health, as well as people from Alcohol Beverage Control; Barbering & Cosmetology; Business Oversight; Consumer Affairs; Food and Agriculture; Labor Commissioner’s Office; and the Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development.

I believe the enemy both domestic and foreign is purposely sending asymptomatic antifa types into various communities

Think about it if they were trying to oust a duly elected president Or deny us our voting right with fake impeachment why would they take asymptomatic antifa types and stick them in red states

The enemy is evil beyond description they can’t be trusted for anything

Seems like Dems are using the courts at every opportunity to get their way, while we just sit on our haunches and hope. Every conservative needs to (legally and non violently of course) push back against what is going on in our country and at every opportunity. Even if it is just telling businesses to take politics out of their business, and end biased policy based on whims of leftist protestors.

Live and let live.

I don’t “mask shame” and I don’t shame those not wearing masks.

We are adults. We don’t need to be lectured “frequently wash your hands—avoid touching your face—practice social distancing.”

Dewine Ohio, now claiming kids in danger not going back to school, by pedestrians.

Which is precisely why Mike Jones is one of the really good guys.

He started an “open York County” alliance which raised tens of thousands to pay any fines levied against businesses reopening ahead of Tommie’s coloring book schedule.

Maybe sometimes and sometimes probably not.

Enough of this mask controversy.

It has been proven mathematically by NN Taleb that masks, regardless of their efficiency, reduce to a significant degree the probability of contracting Covid. On the other hand, there is also a degree of physical fitness required before you wear a respirator.

In industry, everywhere I have been, where the potential of wearing a respirator exists, I’ve been required to pass a few fit tests, prior to gaining access.

Governments that demand all wear masks need to be voted out. Not all can, or want to, wear a mask.

If you are overweight, diabetic, elderly, and or have high blood pressure...be responsible. You have to live, or not, with the consequences. Stay home.

If you are young and healthy and choose not to wear a mask, stay away from the category of people that have co morbidity factors. Otherwise, party on Garth!
