Comrade Rebels, there is a considerable disparity amid the Republic when it comes to authoritarian dictates and various State Ministries of Covid Compliance.
In recent developments NYC Comrade Minister DeBlasio has indicated he is allowing masked citizens to return to restrooms in restaurants which were previously forbidden. This is helpful progress to comply with the frequent hand-washing dictate; however, do not actually pause while in the restaurant venue proper or the Rona will apparently attack.
Perhaps these high-minded regulations from the New York Ministry are helping to drive people from New York to Florida where Rebel Alliance leader Ron DeSantis holds a more pragmatic perspective.
According to Florida officials the sunshine state strain of the Rona virus is not distinguishing between targets standing at a bar with a beer and targets sitting outside at a table with a beer. Apparently this is a conundrum not fully appreciated within the official COVID policy of the Minnesota, Michigan, California, Pennsylvania, New York and DC-based compliance authorities.
The northern regional ministry also indicates the virus in some states is triggered by rebellious activity at certain times of the evening. As a consequence many municipalities have curfews and hours of operation to avoid the greater Rona threat later in the evening.
WASHINGTON DC — With coronavirus numbers setting new daily records, the nation’s capital is temporarily suspending all indoor dining in restaurants over the holidays. Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser issued an executive order Friday night banning indoor dining for three weeks, starting Wednesday at 10 p.m. and extending through Jan. 15.
PHOENIX – Arizona residents are being told to “shrink their circles” of personal contacts and gatherings to help the state’s health care system handle coronavirus cases.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Republican Gov. Bill Lee has declined to require a mask order. Only a dozen other states lack a statewide mask requirement.
Interestingly, according to the AP “among the first 215,000 people to get vaccinated in the U.S., fewer than 1.5% of them had problems that left them unable to perform their normal activities or required medical care.” The current fatality rate for the Rona is around 0.7% so if the statistics hold up, twice as many people are injured by the vaccination as will likely suffer from the worst part of the virus.
Comrades, it is also good to know our proactive COVID ministry has mandated social distancing at the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race in Alaska.
Should a musher come across another team on the 1,000 mile expanse of isolated wilderness, said mushers will be required to put on a mask.
Obviously our nation breathes a collective sigh of relief for the hours of painstaking debate that went into the Rona preparations in the northern tundra. With the race scheduled in March 2021, decisions were coming down to the wire. Additionally, to ensure the safety of the polar inhabitants, each musher will be required to test for Rona exposure midway through the race.
MICHIGAN – Restaurants must remain closed; however, “casinos, movie theaters, bowling alleys and similar venues will be allowed to reopen on Monday, with some restrictions in place.” What type of restrictions?… “Indoor ice and roller rinks are allowed to operate, but only for individual workouts or one-on-one training, according to the order.” So if comrade rebels in Michigan can find an Ice-Skating rink open you will not ever suffer the embarrassment of another human seeing you fall down.
All of that said, what is your local areas’ current state of COVID-19 rules and regulations?
Feel free to share examples of Ministerial Compliance Decrees that seem to be, well, transparently silly.
Central Va. went shopping today. Local bike shop looking for my 13 and 11 year old and me and everyone else masked up. Went to big box sporting good shop masked up. Went to local resale Gun shop no mask customers or staff. Go figure.
NE Florida here.
As far as I know there are no current state or county mask requirements. I only shop at grocery stores that don’t have mask requirement signs on the door.
Bars, restaurants and churches are open, albeit with mask and/or capacity restrictions.
Overall, considering what NY, CA, MI, VA, etc. are experiencing, we are blessed.
Thank God for Gov. DeSantis. We really dodged a bullet in that election!
gainesville here, the woke mayor and county officials are ignoring DeSantis but I regularly keep my mask pulled down anyway and make people bug me about it, then tell them “I’m not doing that” – though it’s stressful dealing with continual ignorance.
I wish DeSantis would make a very strong / loud announcement that mask mandates are not enforceable – I know he’s said this but the woke local officials choose to impose Karenism on their ‘subjects’.
Plus I know if DeSantis did make a loud and firm announcement, the media would ignore it or chastise him.
Florida could have had a crack-smoking closeted homosexual governor, no chance that person would ever have been blackmailed… /s
It’s Alachua County that is requiring businesses to post signs, even if they don’t require masks, it fools the masses. I dared go into Target the other day (I don’t normally shop there but they had a Christmas gift I was looking for.) and I was the only one there without a mask. No one said a word.
Da bin…. 🙁
yes, i am in Alachua County. how do they get away with that? I was told to pull up my mask and I refused.
along with the Alachua County sign, there’s also a sign at the front door saying its ‘store policy’ that customers must wear a mask.
just ignore the B.S. and proceed?
I’ll do it if I won’t get arrested.
Admin user – the last time a clerk asked me to pull up my mask I pulled it off instead and walked right back out the door. I have had it with these loons. The only store I go into is my local grocery, which until our weak minded Governor issued a statewide “mask up” mandate, didn’t require masks. Now they do it because they have to, but nobody says anything if you walk around without one. I vote to ignore the B.S. and proceed…
Although I have yet to have this encounter, should a merchant require me to wear a mask, I will remind them that amazon.com does not require masks.
While I admit I do the same, at least in action if not words, that sadly gives liberal megalomaniac Bezos even more money and power. By not standing and fighting, the small businesses are committing suicide while imagining they’ll survive. It’s a Catch-22 for sure.
Orange County FL aka blue county. There is a mask mandate, I wear a face shield, not a mask, wherever it is mandated. I know it is not enforceable but I don’t want to deal with being hassled. I put it on right when I approach the door to go in and take it off as soon as I am outside. I went to an outdoor event last week and many people took it off, including my friends and me. No one seemed to care who had a mask and who didn’t. I just hate the way the media inside and outside of FL treat Gov Desantis because he will not cave. The articles they write about him are disgusting. I finally stopped getting the paper. I am not going to spend my money on that rag anymore and I told them exactly why I was not renewing. They actually unendorsed Michael Waltz because he dared to stand up with the Texas lawsuit. And some state official, I forget who, is demanding our AG, Ashley Moody apologize for signing on to the Texas lawsuit because it was such an embarassmnet blah blah Like others have said I feel so blessed to be in a state without a dictator but with actual leadership. Also blessed that I never had to stop working and I get to work from home some of the time. No complaints here for sunny Florida 🙂
Oh and I emailed Senator Rubio and Scott today and asked them if they were going to step up on 1/6 since their constituents overwhelming voted for Pres Trump or were they going to side with the foreign and domestic election meddlers. I think everyone should contact their Senators.
What county are you in? I’m up in NJ and seriously considering moving to FL. I don’t know the state at all, but want to end up in a part of Florida that is NOT into the Covid tyranny. I’d love to find a town/county/city without mask mandates and with citizens who appreciate freedom. I’m so sick of these brainwashed Democrats–they absolute morons!!!
I am in Polk County, and I see some signs on the doors of stores requiring masks, but I don’t wear one. Nobody says anything about it any more. Love DeSantis.
Update from Texas. Y’all remember Shelly Luther, the salon owner who went to jail for opening up then not kowtowing to the local judge who demanded a show of contrition?
She lost her race big time a little bit ago. Darned shame.
“Nine months ago, I was just a small business owner with zero political experience. Then Governor Abbott and some Democrats in Dallas put me in jail for opening my salon. Those same politicians spent nearly three million dollars, most of which unfortunately got spent on lies about me in an effort to stop our movement. What they don’t know is that it only emboldens me more. I won’t back down, and I’m not going anywhere,” said Luther.
https://thetexan.news/drew-springer-wins-special-election-for-texas-senate-seat-against-shelley-luther/
“Age and Guile Beat Youth, Innocence, and a
BadGood Haircut”Springer is a sleezy swamp rat! I really got tired of his negative, nasty, and libelous mailer. His was one of the dirtiest campaigns in recent Texas history.
We lost a great opportunity with someone like Shelley. Truly disappointed with the outcome.
Probably stolen.
Really I don’t know what to think as my business hasn’t been affected at this point but friends owning restaurants/bars are being killed, local breakfast place I have been going to since he opened fifteen years ago gave the FU and and has all tables open for weeks had breakfast there today and two local officers were there also.
We have had a double down from our crackpot governor here in Colorado but I know that two of our counties here, Weld and Conejos, in Colorado have told the governor to stick it.
The county leaders of those two counties will not enforce the new lockdown edicts.
I am not sure if any other counties are mulling this over but I know that several county sheriffs have said that they will not enforce the new lockdown edicts and so do not call them for back up or if someone is defying the lock down.
So we will see how all of this goes from here on out.
The mask mandate is being followed some what depending on who is shopping at what hour.
Moms and soccer moms seem to be the most to obey the orders.
When I see guys shopping alone, especially burly truck driver type of guys and construction type guy workers shopping after five they never seem to be wearing masks.
They stride around the store picking up what seems to be their evening dinner of steak, and dessert and then leave almost daring some one to try and tell them to mask up.
Most people seem a bit weary and unhappy about the mask thing and the dining rooms are all closed with only take out available.
i get the feeling people are just about ready to explode. But who knows.
We live out in the country and only come to town once every two weeks or so for supplies so we do not have to put up with the daily nonsense of this kind of living.
I don’t know how people who live in town can stand it every single day.
I would have blown a gasket long ago.
Republic of Boulder here. Everyone wearing masks here. My husband & I don’t go anywhere except doctor’s office, groceries & liquor store. Sam’s Club (Longmont) shut down its soda dispensary at the beginning. When we were there last week, they had shut down their limited restaurant.
Generally, i’ve been yelled at if I forget to wear my mask or don’t have it covering my nose by security or worker bees anywhere I go.
The elderly people going for a walk in my neighborhood wear their masks. I refuse to wear my mask on walks. It makes me sad and angry to see what we’ve been reduced to just to go on a walk
9 out of 11 people living in my cul-de-sac are registered Democrats, and I figure that’s the same throughout the entire suburb.
Whenever I walk by one neighbor’s house with a BLM sign in their yard, I give them the special finger.
Living the dream that comes with Medicare for All. But I digress.
LOL. I have a confession to make. When this all first started, I sometimes wore a mask and sometimes not. I started finding one of those big burly type men not wearing a mask and would stay in their vicinity when I didn’t wear one. It gave me courage. It was funny because nobody ever said anything around one of those guys. 🙂
I’ve seen that too. Other customers have said something to me at Walmart’s for not wearing a mask but they don’t seem to say anything to the muscular men not wearing any.
Southeast TX, I went and had lunch with my brother yesterday, walked in the restaurant and a table full of local cops, and sheriff deputies, around 8-10, all at one table turned and waved as we walked in….not a mask in sight, not supposed to be more than 4 at a table. Pretty much personal choice in my neck of the woods. I haven’t worn a mask yet, (except Dr. office). Not one person has ever said a word to me, although when entering Wally World, I can hear the greeter say to unseen microphone, “ one, no mask, or 3 no mask, not sure what that’s about.
I live in a democrat controlled sh*thole city, with an incompetent 4 foot bug eyed frog that calls itself “Mayor”
There’s nothing fun to do because everything’s closed. Fast food places and restaurants are open for carryout only. Grocery and big box stores are open
Majority of people wear masks, Many idiots wearing them while driving too
Actually ended a long friendship yesterday. A buddy of mine called to ask if I could look at a problem he was having at his house
When I got there, he was wearing a huge mask that covered about 3/4’s of his face and all of his neck. I told him to take the ridiculous face diaper off so I could understand what he was saying
I said I’m not sick, you and your wife aren’t sick, so why the hell are you both covered up like mummies in your own house?
His response was it was the right thing to do, they didn’t want to put each other at risk. He also said they keep their distance from each other and no longer sleep in the same bed
Oh, and then he told me to put on a mask. That’s when I went off on him
I proceeded to tell him that although I knew he leaned left, he’s now officially mentally ill, and a weak, shell of a man. I said since he and his wife had their heads so far up the asses of the tyrannical left, I couldn’t stomach the stench any longer
With that, I told him it was nice knowing him before his breakdown as a man, but now I was done with him, and I left
I have no more tolerance for weak willed idiots and cowards
“His response was it was the right thing to do, they didn’t want to put each other at risk. He also said they keep their distance from each other and no longer sleep in the same bed.”
Please tell me you’re making this up.
I mean, even people on the left can’t be that stupid.
Nope, not making it up. I was stunned too
He’s actually a really nice guy, and I liked him as a friend, but I just can’t let this one go
I’d seen him in person at a few parties over the summer, and they both wore masks and social distanced, which I thought was pathetic, but I let it go as just being overly cautious, but this time, at his own home, was simply too much
I almost feel sorry for them.
I
almostnever feel sorry for them.It’s stunning the widespread lack of ‘thinking’ that is on display right now.
AllIWant – very similar nonsense to a card my DIL received from her sister and family showing them on a hike somewhere in the mountains by themselves and all masked up. They took their picture with all their masks on and put it on a card and sent it out!!! You really can’t make this shizz up. These people are completely brainwashed and really do live in fear.
Insane! It used to be a joke that people would make fake selfies by superimposing their faces on a graphic background. Now we have real backgrounds with fake people. How do I know that’s them behind the mask? Heck, they may as well just sit in their basement and use fake backgrounds and fake people.
….”even people on the left can’t be that stupid.” I wonder if stupid is the right word but, if it absolves them from personal responsiblity, yes they will be stupid.
We have known that it’s likely that if one of us gets it the other is likely to.
Not a reason to sleep separately.
Turning Point USA maskless convention in Florida today.
LIVE: Turning Point USA: Trump Jr, Giuliani, Tucker Carlson, Charlie Kirk, and more to speak—Day 1 – YouTube
dept of health blocked entry in the afternoon
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/12/breaking-palm-beach-health-officials-block-tpusa-action-summit-attendees-entering-conference-hall-west-palm-beach-florida-sas2020-live-report/
We’ll look for Tucker, Charlie and Joshua Phillipp back on Youtube earlier! Unless the Govenor can veto it.
Ok NY has been masking for months inside public buildings with no end in sight. Businesses are threatened with closure if they don’t send out unhappy employees to harass non-maskers. Cases are high (supposedly). Nobody out and about seems concerned about anything but making Christmas bright. Nobody talks about covid, about vaccines, or about Cuomo (to avoid spitting, perhaps).
Appalling personal experience: my family members were wearing a single disposable mask for weeks, potentially months, before I bought them a stupid box of a 100. The men have cotton masks and will not put them in the laundry. Ever. Good grief! This masking bullsh*t has to end, people are not adapting, make it stop.
I’m changing to a motorcycle mask/balaclava combo for winter because it looks horribly threatening and I now want everybody around me to be uncomfortable seeing it. I have abandoned mask charity. Foggy glasses make me mean anyway, so I might as well look the part.
Gross-I wonder how many have gotten sick from filthy masks. An employee at our local drive thru was wearing a disposable mask, and said “the problem is how wet it gets”. I cringed at how saturated it was and thought about legionnaires disease.
Think about how many of those disgusting wet masks end up on restaurant tables right next to the silverware. GAG
Because the Rona can only get you standing up..
I asked waaaay back at the beginning of this farce, if this is such a deadly “pandemic “, why aren’t the used mask a bio-hazard/ medical waste? I see them thrown everywhere now. A whole new disposable waste industry to litter the country with. I have not, nor will I ever BUY a mask. It’s all BS!
I have to wear a mask at work. I wear a black mask and as much black as I can for clothing. When I am outside of the building with customers I add mirrored sunglasses. I like to think people view me as having a dark persona which is what I want to convey.
North of Tampa–Some counties require masks in businesses, other counties don’t. We were in a small restaurant last week which required masks but we were told we could sit anywhere we wanted. We noticed there were salt and pepper shakers on our table, as well as creamer and a bottle of ketchup. The business atmosphere is more relaxed lately.
In my senior community, no one wears a mask outside.
Well my parents are coming up from Oregon, they’ll give Comrade Jay the one finger salute on their way North and then South.
Spokane Washington, I’ve seen only a handful of other unmasked persons in weeks and smiling eyes are increasingly difficult to come by.
Australia here.
Status: never worn a mask, never planning to, don’t own one, don’t know anybody who does.
Not allowed to leave the country.
Very pretty prison but still a prison.
Hey Jambo,
All Australian states differ in propaganda.
You are not in commie capital Victimtoria.
Depends on where in Australia you are. I’m in Western Australia. It’s a huge State. The UK can fit into it several times. Our Premier has had the State locked down for months but we have freedom otherwise. No masks, come and go anywhere in the State as we please, indoor, outdoor dining. Shops all open. Taverns and bars open, parties ok. Our Premier has 99% approval rating. There are a lot of objectors though. Some fly in fly out workers haven’t seen their families for weeks/months. Businesses can’t get workers. It’s the backpacker season and no backpackers allowed etc. So not everyone is happy but compared to other States, we are having it easy.
I live in one of the many suburbs in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and I am still totally disgusted by the activities of the local population and face diaper coverings sported by once reasonable people. At least, I expect they were at one time. Retired military here and I refuse to wear anything on my face in support of a submissive, compliant herd of sheep once proud Americans have allowed themselves to become. Now I understand why I’ve become so belligerent lately.
So true Kristen.
Does anyone remember back to how we were only suppose to be locked down for six weeks to flatten the curve?
Just for a few weeks they said just to keep our hospitals and medical facilities form being overwhelmed.
Does anyone know how we got from there to here?
Anyone?
Now we have an illegal Joe Biden almost ready to be “installed” as President of the United States with the Supreme Court spouting crap and Mitch McConnell welcoming him on board.
We the average American can not go anywhere or do anything but our Governors can fly off to the Bahamas, and visit hair salons, or wine bars at their leisure.
We are under martial law already.
Time to put them under lock and key and free the rest of us.
I think for the most part, people got caught up in the “do it for others” trap. Americans are really good-hearted people. The tyrants preyed on that. I go maskless most of the time. I know this virus was an attack on this country by China and I know it’s been hyped up to bring America to its knees.
However, I have been caught in the guilt trap at times too. I know in my head that masks don’t stop me from getting or giving the virus. But some in my family are so afraid of this virus that I do sometimes wear a mask for them. See how it works?
From te get-go I have railed against the “do it for others” trap, er cr@p, and especialy when it’s said to be the Christian thing to do. Anyone who falls into that trap is purely and simply irrational.
I lived in Mesquite in the 80s when I worked in downtown Dallas. Both my kidds were born there. From what I read, I wouldn’t recognize the place now. Sad.
My husband was in Boynton Beach, FL this week for work and he was thrown out of Sports Clips and Great Clips for not wearing a mask. He said De Santis edict means nothing. Palm Beach County is enforcing masks everywhere.
Coastal Louisiana was more lax last week than Florida wss this week.
Easley, SC passed a mask mandate this week. Their reasons for doing so are based on precedent set by emergency orders and supposed increase in “cases.”
Nevermind the virus has never been isolated and even the WHO has recognized a problem with the PCR test bc after 25 cycles it’s not considered “accurate.” Nonetheless, some tests are being cycled as much as 45 times.
Scientism is exposing itself full force as the new religion.
My hubby went to our central Ohio Costco a couple of weeks ago, and was reprimanded for wearing his mask with his nose exposed and they made him cover his nose. Another business we will not be returning to.
I’m telling folks the PCR amplification cycles are so high they’re getting readings on dinosaur DNA.
https://www.lewrockwell.com/2020/11/no_author/the-covid-19-rt-pcr-test-how-to-mislead-all-humanity-using-a-test-to-lock-down-society/
“…This misuse of RT-PCR technique is used as a relentless and intentional strategy by some governments, supported by scientific safety councils and by the dominant media, to justify excessive measures such as the violation of a large number of constitutional rights, the destruction of the economy with the bankruptcy of entire active sectors of society, the degradation of living conditions for a large number of ordinary citizens, under the pretext of a pandemic based on a number of positive RT-PCR tests, and not on a real number of patients….”
A long article explaining in layman’s terms how probably 99%+ of the time when you hear the word “test” or “testing” regarding Wuhan virus it is a worthless value that is just being used to push an agenda.
According to Jon Rappaport on http://www.lewrockwell.com , Dr. Fauci has said the test should not be run above 35 cycles.
The CDC recommends 40 cycles.
https://www.zerohedge.com/medical/pandemic-over-former-pfizer-chief-science-officer-says-second-wave-faked-false-positive
“…This video provides one of the most erudite and informative looks at Covid-19 and the consequences of lockdowns. As AIER notes, it was remarkable this week to watch as it appeared on YouTube and was forcibly taken down only 2 hours after posting.
The copy below is hosted on LBRY, a blockchain video application. In a year of fantastic educational content, this is one of the best we’ve seen….”
“….What likely triggered the Silicon Valley censor-mongers is the fact that a former Chief Science Officer for the pharmaceutical giant Pfizer says “there is no science to suggest a second wave should happen.” The “Big Pharma” insider asserts that false positive results from inherently unreliable COVID tests are being used to manufacture a “second wave” based on “new cases.”
As Ralph Lopez write at HubPages, Yeadon warns that half or even “almost all” of tests for COVID are false positives. Dr. Yeadon also argues that the threshold for herd immunity may be much lower than previously thought, and may have been reached in many countries already….”
It was revealed a couple of days ago that Grand County, Colorado erroneously reported 40% of its deaths as “China virus” instead of gunshot deaths.
Grand County is in the mountains with NO major cities & I’m guessing not a lot of black people,.
The statewide influenza cases reported are at .90% but normally run 5.54%. Excuse me if I
Gee, excuse me if I don’t believe anything the Democrat Communist Fascists are telling me about the China virus or China.
keep spreading the word about the scientific fraud with the PCR tests–people don’t understand that this test, which was not designed for diagnosing viral infections and has high false positives (89-94%) is responsible for this whole scam. People are getting sick from the same things they’ve always gotten sick from, but everything is being misdiagnosed and called Covid because of the scientifically fraudulent PCR test. As long as they continue to use this fraudulent test, then can make this scam go forever, until the entire economy is destroyed and the American people impoverished. The only way out of this is for enough people to wake up to the scam, which is why the rest of us have to relentlessly spread the word.
https://www.lewrockwell.com/2020/12/no_author/22-scientists-publish-paper-claiming-the-pcr-test-is-useless-for-detecting-covid-19-cases/
“…There are so many odd ‘things’ happening with this pandemic in terms of information that completely contradicts other information, not only with regards to the testing to detect the virus, but with regards to the severity of the virus as well. Never before have we seen people so polarized in their views, and this in itself is creating a big problem because it creates tension between us.
At the end of the day, we need to try and understand someone who does not share the same perspective as we do, and they should do the same without getting worked up. Our state of being when communicating is of utmost importance.
With so much confusion and lack of appropriate data to justify a lockdown, and with tens and thousands of doctors and scientists explaining how detrimental these measures are, I believe governments and health organizations should simply be presenting data and making recommendations based on science. Those who want to stay inside, wear masks and shut down their businesses for example, should have the option of doing that and those that don’t should have the option of doing that as well. Respiratory viruses kill tens of millions and infect hundreds of millions every single year, it’s not out of the box to treat this virus as we do all others, but that’s just my opinion, what’s yours?…”
“At the end of the day, we need to try and understand someone who does not share the same perspective as we do, and they should do the same without getting worked up. Our state of being when communicating is of utmost importance.”
This sums up our current situation perfectly. Much of the stress and discord over masks or no masks is because people cannot accept another’s perspective. Then the media amplifies this tension with its constant drumbeat of “(fill in the blank #) of new cases in one day!” This has to stop. It’s ruining family relationships, friendships, everything. Maybe that is the point.
https://www.lewrockwell.com/2020/11/joseph-mercola/former-pfizer-science-officer-reveals-great-covid-19-scam/
“…PCR Testing Is Causing a False ‘Casedemic’
As I explained in “Asymptomatic ‘Casedemic’ Is a Perpetuation of Needless Fear,” by using PCR testing, which cannot diagnose active infection, a false narrative has been created.
Currently, rising “cases,” meaning positive tests, are again being used as the justification to impose more severe restrictions, including lockdowns and mandatory mask wearing, when in fact positive tests have nothing to do with the actual spread of illness…”
“…Data show these deaths — primarily people aged 45 to 65, with equal distribution between the sexes — are mainly from heart disease, stroke and cancer, which suggests they are excess deaths caused by inaccessibility of routine medical care as people are either afraid or discouraged from going to the hospital.
These deaths may be characterized as being COVID related, but that’s only because they have been falsely lumped into that category due to false positives being recorded within 28 days of death.
Again, people are being tested very regularly, and the rate of false positives is extremely high. All hospital patients are also tested upon admission, so when they die — regardless of the cause — they’re likely to have a false positive on their record, which then lumps them into the death tally for COVID-19….”
“…As noted by Yeadon, people are now changing the laws of immunology, which simply shouldn’t happen. This should not be a political issue, but somehow it is being treated as one. He claims to have no ideas at all as to why these false narratives are being created, and why scientific truth that contradicts the mainstream narrative is being censored.
Others, however, have become more outspoken about this issue, pointing out how the pandemic is being used as a convenient excuse and justification for redistribution of wealth and the technocratic takeover of the whole world under the banner of a Great Reset to a “more equitable” social order and greener commerce.
It’s being used to usher in social changes that simply could never be introduced without some sort of calamity, be it war or a biological threat, because they involve a radical limitation of personal freedoms and the elimination of privacy. Those in charge of pandemic response measures also refuse to take into account the price of these measures….”
https://www.lewrockwell.com/2020/11/gary-d-barnett/all-those-supporting-lockdowns-and-compliance-have-blood-on-their-hands/
“…It is brutally obvious that this general population cannot see past a television screen locked on to CNN or Fox, and since both sides of the political spectrum believe almost identically, what chance is there of any awakening by large numbers of people? It seems that the ruling members of society have carte blanche in their efforts to complete this communistic and technocratic takeover, because not only is there little if any real resistance to autocratic rule, but the sheep are actually helping those that wish to control them. They have become the state, as they promote tyranny against all, and are willing to monitor and surveil their neighbors on behalf of the government. This country has become a breeding ground for state sponsored stooges. The term that “people are basically good” has been turned on its head!…”
GREAT posts- right the hell on!!
Here in western NC I met a musician from Florida who was bemoaining the lack of gigs in his home state. I was surprised given DeSantis’ stand but he told me the businesses could still self-impose the diktats the governor refused to impose and for the most part, they’re doing it. That confirmed the decision I had made in the summer to not support businesses who go along with this tyranny despite the fact that they need the trade.
San Diego, CA. reporting…..dead, dead, DEAD! We made national news this week when a judge said that a strip club could open…a bit confusing because they thought they could attend with full service restaurant open…business owners posited that could take place only if they were naked. Hey! Some San Diegans could deal! Not so fast, another judge says no, no, Nanette and they are closed AGAIN after a one day reversal…. and the hopes of all the rest of the city’s restaurants with them. No indoor, no outdoor, no disrobing. Nada!
A friend reported from Old Town tonight that he couldn’t even find a take-out place. Too bad the vaccine is going to spoil all this fun for Govenor Newsom since without fear of Rona and no excuse to destroy businesses, they aren’t going to have an excuse including the house arrest going on, as I write. http://www.recallgavin2020.com. Agree?
Medical facilities are the only place I wear a mask, and I cannot help but feel like I am under Taliban law when I do wear them. Lord Northam decreed no one is allowed on the road from Midnight to 5 am. Ridiculous.
I was in the Giant the other day, they had a great deal on hand sanitizer, I looked for alcohol percentage, it was 70% which is what I wanted, grab and go. I get home, read the label and it was made in China. I threw it out.
I take Vitamin D3, Zinc, and Vitamin C every day.
Here in “Cabo” Adler’s Austin, things aren’t good, but restaurants are full and Christmas shopping is brisk thanks to Gov Abbot.
Headed back to Walmart today to pick up wrapping paper and a few last-minute stocking stuffers. Slid right past the door guard without my mask while her back was turned. Saw a family of females – a mom, teenager, and kid above 6 but below the teens – nary a sign of a mask. Several people, including a pharmacist and another employee, with their masks dutifully guarding their chins while exposing their faces. People are getting tired of it, and people are getting tired of enforcing it.
The door guard checked our receipt on the way out. Absolute stickler for putting the mask on when coming in… but she apparently doesn’t care so much if you’re on the way out.
In Crazyfornia here, so cal so not as crazy as the upper parts. A lot of people frightened and stupid. They walk and drive with a mask on. I laugh at their ignorance and go mask less or wear a clear chin strap thing that does nothing. I do not abide by curfews or stay away from my neighbors. In fact I just came back in from a neighborhood meet n greet by a cross the street neighbor. House all done up, cookies n hot cocoa, candy canes etc. A good time and met some new people. As far as I am concerned Gavin Nuisance does not exist.
Merry Christmas Treepers. keep your spirits HIGH!!!!
chicago suburbs here.
retail is mask or no admittance.
grocery store inventory improved briefly, but noticeable shortages started again last month and are not improving.
continuing scarcity of premium pet foods.
objections to the situation are given in whispers only.
still, as far fetched as it sounds, i have become convinced that illinois is actually a red state.
i think the chicago machine simply ramped up ballot fraud after peter fitzgerald left in 1998 to ensure that actual voters never matter again – or at least for as long as they can keep up the graft.
the scheme was successfully exported to some unlikely, i.e. traditionally very red, counties as well, to purposefully drive home the point that conservatives will be allowed no representation at all.
but we are chugging along, doing the best we can.
it sure does feel like war, though.
Will County here…same thing…food shortages…hard to find some things, like an 8 oz. block of swiss cheese…disinfectant wipes and TP have reappeared on the Jewel shelves…mask nazis present at HD and Wally World,
Small shops such as hair salons, not the franchise types, go by the mask rules in deadly fear of the state compliance auditors.
My non profit dog training club can only do one on one training. Again, fear of ‘Karen’ and the mask nazis along with compliance auditors and club is losing money. Small restaurants, the same thing.
Employment must be good as the expressway traffic remains the same…intolerable!
I-80 through Joliet, many big rig accidents. More than usual.
Governor is threatening tax increases.
Little hospital in the ‘hood, where I work, less people dying than two weeks ago but many covid admits.
thanks for the tip on stone city kc!
that’s a good solution to keep going.
lyons tdtc had to shut down completely and i feel so badly for them. classes are a big part of their revenue.
nothing seems to have escaped the ripples on the covid pond.
almost like that was the plan…..
A murder-suicide in Colorado where both victims died from gunshot wounds was listed by the Colorado Dept of Heath because both victims had tested positive for Covid-19 a month before the shooting. The county coroner was shocked by the cause of death officially listed as Death from Covid-19 and demanded an explanation. The Colorado Health Officials said that the CDC rules required that anyone who tested positive within 30 days of their death regardless of the cause would be listed as a Coronavirus death!
Do a search for One America News Network Open for Business documentary, which does an excellent job exposing the fraudulent covid death count. People need to share that everywhere!! It got taken down on youtube, so you have to go to the OAN website. Please share. We have to wake people up to this scam before it’s too late. They are quickly moving forward with their Great Reset agenda.
By this logic, 10 million WW I deaths should be added to the 20 million Spanish Flu deaths.
It’s Science(tm)!
WA state: Costco in Olympia has been really strict about masks, get really chewed out if nose is not covered. Went a couple of times without mask (“medical’) not one word. However, during recent visit they had a sign that if you couldn’t wear mask you had to wear a face shield. Fortunately my daughter in AZ had gone to a Trump rally where they gave out MAGA masks and she had sent hers to me. So I shopped with the MAGA mask on and ended up networking (exchanged ph #s) with four other shoppers. They all said they had been afraid to wear their Trump gear. I said we must start SHOWING our support for the country.
My husband has never worn a mask and no one has ever said anything.
I have a MAGA mask I wear and I get a lot of compliments.
I see many people relaxing a bit, still wearing masks but giving me the thumbs up or telling me outright how much they like my Trump mask.
Keep up the good work JILL L.
Jill
I wear my Trump 2020 mask to the Costco here in Puyallup and gets lots of thumbs up as well!
I had one lady tell me that I was now her husband’s hero?.
I believe that lots of people are fed up with Dimslee’s edicts.
I got the same reaction at a Sam’s Club. I have to admit I only wear my 2020 MAGA mask when my husband is with me.
I reserve my right to give the finger to anyone wearing a mask or t-shirt I don’t like, but I still say you have the right to say it w/o having the crap beat out of you.
Here in southeast Louisiana, I noticed that some people have stopped wearing masks in the stores. We were hit hard in March and April. Our local LEO has never enforced the rules.
New Orleans is another story. Mayor Cantrell is acting like a typical Dem tyrant. That city will never Recover. Restaurants, hotels, and bars are hurting. We don’t care much for NOLA but we feel sorry for business owners there. Many of them say they are banding together to find and back a new candidate to run against Mayor
Cantrell. She and the city counsel cancelled MardisGras 2021. She has also cancelled several other events. Without football, the parades and the festivals, there simply aren’t too many reasons for tourists to visit New Orleans.
New Mexico—lock down since March, masks since April..businesses opened then shut. She was the only governor shut car dealerships and they couldn’t even sell online for awhile. The state did the same escalation as all other states. It’s chaos, poverty, shut schools since last spring-now 49th in education and #1 in suicides. Small state (2 million) no one cares. Absolutely horrible to watch small businesses closed and most will be out of business. Currently can not enter a restaurant-pick up only.
Sam’s Club in an AustinTX suburb. Wear mask going in and then pull it down to chin. Many others about50% not wearing. Use self-checkout and walk away with mask up leaving store.
Oregon, foothills of the Cascades, Mt Hood National Forest.
I’ve not been around where I’m affected by the plague of politicians. I’m putting a little separation between news overload and living.
My free time has been spent emerging myself in the great outdoors and it’s been fun. Refreshing old skills and learning new ones. Put in a few good hikes where I’ve been able to practice with using pace beads and incorporating them with map and compass. It’s rewarding when I get it right. Been going through my camping gear, repairing, waterproofing, replacing brutally used and wore out gear. Been studying topo maps looking for new places to camp and hike. Took out my old recurve bow and been practicing with it, stump shooting while doing tuneup hikes.
Jefferson County, Alabama here. The state still has a mask order in place, but most people are ignoring it. There are some places that absolutely require you to be wearing one when you enter and some of those are kinda relaxed after you get in.
All we hear about are cases, cases, cases. They’re using the PCR for the tests, but they won’t tell anybody how many cycles they let it run. Kary Mullis, the scientist who invented PCR, said right up to the time he passed away that it should never be used as a test. I wish he were still alive.
I’ll be 68 in a couple of months and I haven’t even had a cold in the past two years! Blood pressure normal, cholesterol normal, blood sugar normal, brain just a bit off.
Western Washington. Masks and distancing required inside and out. Also distancing. Except for two small towns declaring they are free: Mossyrock & Morton.
And my gym whose fines are over 100K now. Windows at the gym being prepped for the constitution and bill of rights. Funded by gym participants.
I know the gym you are speaking of. Used to go there.
I think we are neighbors.
Went to Mossyrock yesterday for lunch.
Bit of a drive but worth it.
Southeastern Pennsylvania Just north of Philadelphia in bucks county.
Indoor restaurant dining is closed. They are still doing Takeout.
LOTS of idiots driving in their cars…. alone…. wearing a mask.. The same with people in the parking lots putting on their masks before they step out of their vehicles.
I’m seeing an increase in people with anti-lockdown shirts and hats. I make it a point to let them know we are on the same page.
Our illustrious ‘health minister’ actually published a page on how to be safe from covid at orgies. UNBELIEVABLE.
I was working in my woods and noticed a helo making repeated passes at a couple of hundred feet. I didn’t get a really good look at it. More of an executive type bird. The paint scheme seems to match that of the PA state police. The patterns it was flying corresponded to our major roads – My guess – They were photographing parking lots of restaurants for enforcement of the lockdown rules. I saw the same helo on an approach to a local airport.
The PA unemployment is a mess. My son is away at college. Prior to the BS he was working as a waiter. He hasn’t been able to work since he went back in the fall. I’m not sure if any restaurants in his town will survive much longer. His unemployment is delayed again.
Arizona here. Far west valley, out in the desert. Retired my healthcare license recently due to the hysteria, which is only getting worse here.
I’m disgusted with what I am seeing. And for the first time in a long time, I don’t know how to fix it.
People wearing faceshields plus face masks. Quite a number of folks also wearing disposable gloves. I’ve seen several wearing Playtex gloves which go all the way up the forearm, and are used when washing dishes or doing housecleaning.
It would be funny—these costumed zombies— if it wasn’t so disheartening to realize that these people will Never have their minds changed.
The FEAR has paralyzed them and infected their brains.
I can no longer help them.
P.S.: Did you see that Fauci was on CNN addressing children, saying that he had gone to the North Pole and vaccinated Santa?
He declared that Santa is now safe to come down the chimney into their homes.
False Fauci.
Northern California. Recently attended a large private party of anti-RINO, true conservative types. Probably 60 people in attendance–diverse ages and ethnic groups–(how sad that we have to qualify ourselves like I just did, but it’s just to drive home the point that our side are not the bigots the media accuses us of being). I saw one person wearing a mask and nobody cared a bit.
Everyone was on the same page regarding the extended over-reaction to the COVID (read as “scam”) as well as the scam election. Great group of people. Some Proud Boys in attendance, as well. Great food and company, nothing but love and smiles, people singing Christmas carols
Our governor–Gavin Newscam–is a disaster and we the people are still pushing to recall his sorry ass.
Merry Christmas everyone!
Work harder, please. Heartland America needs to see both the West & East Coasts show some backbone against the China virus AND voter fraud.
North Santa Cruz County, California.
Yesterday the local restaurant/bar was packed outside. They had a line waiting to order from a bartender behind a plexiglass shield. I was behind some guys I ‘try’ to play pool with and we were huddled and laughing- so no social distancing in the mask-required order que.
Once you are served the masks come off! There’s a large outdoor pool table area that is hidden from view. It’s very unusual to see a mask, and as this is a very pot friendly part of commiefornia, I’ve noticed no decrease in the cigarettes that are passed around the pool tables between people that certainly don’t appear to be family.
I have not heard of law enforcement being used to enforce covid orders, yet.
10 pm to 5 am we’re supposed to stay inside our homes even more importantly than those other hours in the day.
We had 55 “covid” deaths since last March in a population of 274,000. If you look at the covid demographics, it alludes to migrant farm workers. Hispanic/Latino age 18 – 29 and employed in agriculture. Imagine that???
Here in wa. under comrade innscum the last couple weeks went back to take out only, but you could still get a hair cut ,go to the tribal casino( huge donors to democommies) and eat indoors if you let them scan your drivers license. walk arm in arm into china mart or any grocery. No commonsense out here , cafes to open back up next week maybe? So tired of this crap
WASHINGTON, DC – Many here initially went along with the COVID restrictions. But, in rhe lasr month or so. I noticed some pushback on masks by citizens which would explain the Mayor’s new round of restrictions.
Some examples of pushback:
* A seafood restaurant I frequent doesn’t enforce customers or even staff wearing masks. It’s up to the person
* The local gas station doesn’t care about masks. I naturally give them a lot of business for their common sense.
* None of the CVS stores I’ve been to enforce mask wearing. Other customers including those with masks were chill about me being maskless.
* I went to pick items for. The local Hone Depot. The cashier had no issue with me not wearing a mask.
Bottom is that even in very Blue DC citizens are starting to see COVID restrictions as silly and oppressive.
Sorry for the typos in the post. I’m getting used to the smaller text.
Test

I’m in NorCal and we are in full lockdown.. No Restaurants or movies or sports and limited people allowed in the few stores open…
Dothan AL area here. Mask madness continues. Although lately, I have seen more people in Publix without a mask. I have not worn one and don’t plan on it. Same with hand sanitizer, I’ve never used it. Not going to start just because “they” say we should. Germs are everywhere and there is nothing in the world anyone can do to overcome that! Soap and water have worked for a long time, and I’m just not a germaphobe lol.
People are really stoopid! All they are doing is suppressing their immune system. And I believe that is part of the plan too. It makes it easier to “catch” something, anything. And we know that all illness is labeled covid.
I am so sick and tired of this BS. I know a lot of us feel like we are living in the twilight zone, surrounded by morons. I’ve never seen so many people so afraid of something they can’t even see! Nor any proof that it’s out there around them.
I haven’t been to a restaurant since my hubby left for Iraq back in January. I usually eat out once a week when he is gone for the year. Sure do miss it, and him. But I refuse to put on a face diaper just to walk in and be seated, then be able to take it off. Now that is just plain dumb.
There are so many things that show how this is all political and for the life of me I can’t figure out why people don’t see that. It’s sad to see that there are so many people out there that are brain dead! So willing to give up their lives because they are afraid of a virus that is no more dangerous than any other flu. I mean where were their face diapers last year or the year before? And do they plan on wearing it for the rest of their lives? I wonder if they have even thought about that?!
Dear God, I just want it to end.
Souther Cali here, we are on full lockdown mode. No outdoor dining last I checked. Masks required everywhere, inside or out. I even got a notice from the kids school on December 10th that they are “closing down further until January” but the school district never opened for class or hybrid class, so who knows what that even means. Took my boys to the park the other day and a mother came up to my son and told him to wear a mask- my son told me what happened and I walked up to the woman and warned her not to talk to my kids- then the entire park of parent basically chased that woman out. It was a good sign in my mind.
Hooray. If it happens again, call the police and report a child molester. Karma for Karens.
One of the parents who stepped in told me he was about to call the police saying a woman at the park was trying to lure kids to her car by offering free masks ?.
Honolulu here. We’ve been averaging around 75 new cases per day in “Tier 2” (a ranked scheme toward “reopening”
If we get over 100 cases for 2 weeks, it drops us back to Tier 1 which is more restrictive. We’ve got to get to 50 cases or less for 2 weeks to advance to Tier 3 (more permissive)
Bars and nightclubs remain closed
Gyms and restaurants and churches are open at 50 percent capacity
Most people wear masks, it’s an obedient society
Whatever … we’ve got bigger fish to fry
Like 14-foot Tiger sharks
DNA tech identifies shark that killed Maui surfer (and how big it was)
right-click and open that photo in a new tab for a complete view
it’s a foot-and-a-half wide bite mark on the deceased surfer’s surfboard
covid schmovid – we got stuff that’ll eat you
Tiger Schmiger- COVID eats your SOUL. (That IS a helluva big shark though) ..
Here in South Central PA our Governor and Secretary of Heath have decided that the Rona is particularly dangerous during Christmas and New Year and have closed restaurants, gyms and entertainment venues for three weeks. A growing list of patriots have joined the resistance and chosen to remain open. When supporting one such restaurant, our waitress shared the fact that individuals she does not know and have never met identified that she works at a resisting restaurant and have bombarded her social media pages with threats and vile comments. Sadly our Nation’s spirit of individualism and free choice is dying. Perhaps it is because our churches, while technically exempt from the dictates of the Executive, have also chosen to close to the public. In my congregation all social ministries have been placed on hold, prayer shawls are no longer being delivered, meal ministries are closed, and ministries for displaced families are on hiatus. Even worship is relegated to the virtual. Sadly, Jesus would not recognize what his church has become. I guess freezing in the cold and being hungry is a much better lot than succumbing to the Rona. After all hypothermia and starvation is a much better risk than the Rona.?
Lehigh County, PA Saturday a restaurant defied Wolf and opened their doors until 4PM. Place was full but masks had to be worn to enter. A “Karen” guy complained to a police officer and the officer drove away…doing nothing.
Chester County, PA. Have not worn a mask at all since March when they were mandated.
Most businesses will do curbside. I grocery shop at least weekly and staff at the local Wegman’s and Aldi know the State ‘rules’ and just assume I have a medical reason and with HIPAA they can’t ask. I shop early morning when it’s least crowded. Other patrons do get nasty. I just calmly repeat I can’t wear one and it’s OK.
I’m out in Lancaster County at least once a month, today was one of those times. Chain grocery stores about 10% unmasked. Little Amish ones about 60% unmasked including staff who are behind Plexiglas Shields. Some restaurants are ignoring the indoor dining ban in PA, many more the further you get outside of Philly.
PA has had a mask mandate since April I think. Lots of people went whole hog and wore them all the time, including driving. At gas stations now people pumping gas it’s about 50/50 in Chester County and about 90% unmasked in Lancaster unless they are going inside.
As I said I was out in Lancaster today, still lots of Trump signs and flags up. People know there was cheating here in PA.
Michigan here, you would not know there is a lockdown here other than all of those filthy masks that everyone is wearing. I know pneumonia seems to be prevalent, which I believe is from wearing those face filters, I refuse to wear one, no one in my family and most of my friends refuse to also, we are all healthy. Only folks I know that have been sick, have all worn masks, and I know many have become seriously ill, even hospitalized with upper respiratory issues. None have had Covid.
As far as the economy, folks are shopping, but little freight is running in the SE MI area, been difficult finding work in the area, or freight coming into MI for that matter. Automotive freight is slow, very little if any. Amazon seems to be the one steady outfit up here, but I am not tapped into their system. But odds are, most of that will dry up after Christmas as it normally does. I am looking for work in Ohio, Toledo area…
South Louisiana (not New Orleans; Cajun country!):
Things could be worse, when I see California. We still have plenty of sit-down restaurants. At gas stations, mask enforcement has been, for all practical purposes, non-existent. Maybe 1/3 of people wearing masks, but no Karens. The only places really enforcing it are big grocery stores, pharmacies, Wal-Mart, Target, etc. Guitar Center – of all things – being hard-core about it *meet the new Boss – same as the old Boss*
But at the country bars, no one – and I mean like maybe 1 or 2 percent max – has been wearing masks since the summer. As soon as you get 5 miles outside the main medium-sized city I’m near, it’s country. One place I frequent put on the door, early on, a sign saying that “if you enter here, you are certifying that you are exempt from wearing a mask, and we we are not required to ask you why.”
Out of all the people in and out of that place, only heard of 4 people who caught it – and we’re right up in each others’ faces – hugs – Halloween party, etc,, etc.
HOWEVER, it’s not all smiles. About 2 weeks ago, the Democrat governor Edwards sent out the fire marshals or the health dept. (I never figured out which) and begin a crackdown on all local poolhalls. No pool allowed. One place I hangout regularly has people crowded outside, hip to hip, no masks (we allow drinking on our streets – welcome to Louisiana 🙂 ) – and the inspectors walked right past us – and went inside to make sure no one was shooting pool. Of course, that put the poolhall across town out of business. Then they busted the biggest bar downtown- the only sports bar – for people inside not wearing masks, and pulled their business license for a full year!!!!!! Everyone’s already going broke, and they pull this!!!
Then, a country bar where I went to see a buddy perform live music … for awhile they – to satisfy the live music indoor ban – get this – forced my buddy to play on the porch and point his speakers in through the open windows, while everyone inside is dancing, etc., maskless. I come back the next night, and the crackdown happened, and I order a beer, and they say I have to buy a “weenie!” What? For $1 they hand me a limp hot dog wrapped in foil – no bun…. I wave it around and tell ’em I don’t need no “weenie” – I already got one, and this one’s too small anyway.
The next week, no weenies – they said it was too much hassle, so the owner said “screw it” and decided just to ignore the rule.
Go back to the poolhall which didn’t close, and now things have changed again. Before, you had to wear a mask only to approach the bar. Now, you have to put on a mask- walk 15 feet inside and sit at a booth, where you can remove the mask. Then the bartender comes over to you and takes your order – brings you the drink – then you get up, put your mask back on to walk out the door, and drink it on the street along with everyone else standing together with no masks.
The other place, where we go to dance – we have to dance outside. The governor put up a sign saying we couldn’t dance, but we said this ain’t Footloose and we tore it down and danced anyway. Now … we’re not allowed in the bar – outside only . The bartender stands at the door and goes get your drinks.
So… things have become a lot worse in south Louisiana in the last 3 weeks or so, but we’re still doing a lot better than other places!
It comes down to…. the people coming round to inspect the bars don’t too much like driving out in the country to shut little places down, where the customers and owner are all looking daggers at them. They stick to the town proper…….
Also, there are so many personal backscratching connections (in Louisiana it’s not what you know; it’s who you know) that half the places are paying off the fire marshals anyway, or just being left alone because of whom they’re related to!!!!!
Ground report – From The Belly of The Beast – Studio City, California – December 19, 2020
Essential Businesses: CBS Studio Center has had six shows shut down due to positive Covid tests. Reports are no hospitalizations or major illness. Just positive PCR tests, sniffles and paranoia. Our excellent local Firestone Auto Repair shop keeps shutting down due to – once again – positive PCR tests. It is right next to CBS Studio Center so it must be those infectious show people. Grandpa was right. “No dogs or actors.”
Lifestyle choices: 98% of people on the streets and 30% of people driving in closed cars wearing masks. My wife and I make up the other 2% as well as the odd passers by. I must make an effort to say hello to these few maskless ones. We shall see what I can find out. Everyone I see vigorously running has a mask. Some have their masks down until they sight me maskless and then frantically pull their mask up. The virus is either everywhere or it is nowhere. So breathe deep and enjoy!
The Gentlemen of the Smoking Cigars continue unabated as usual. None of us has become ill or tested positive. We remark on this fact quite frequently. The extended group during the fullness of the day is quite large. I rely on my Superior German Immune System. The rest are all tough old Bucks nevertheless.
The Party Line: Gov. Nuisance and our fine, fine Mayor “Monkieboy” Garcetti never cease to amaze. But they have help. Most recently the head of the LA County Health Department was outed as being the same kind of Doctor as “Doctor” Jill Biden. Barbara Ferrer has a degree in Sociology. Just the type of Medical expert you want leading you forward in the midst of a deadly epidemic. Ferrer is not big on metrics either being unable to provide any statistical basis for closing outdoor dining recently. Here in LaLa land “Just Because” carries the force of law. Even though it’s not a law. But never you mind that.
After January First when the evictions begin, California will be all done but the shouting. And oh Baby – there will be shouting.
Here in Haines City, Polk County, Florida I where a mask whenever I go into Walmart and Bank of America. Signs on the doors say that people should wear masks. I don’t where any mask when going into a restaurant like Denny’s or R-Place Eatery to to eat in general. But R-Place does have a requirement that when you go up to the Sunday buffet you need to have a mask on. That means that yesterday when I simply sat down at a table and gave an order I did not wear a mask in R-Place. But today when I walk up to the buffet to be served I will put the mask on when standing at the buffet then take it off when sitting down to eat. The requirements have been moderate enough that I see no reason to complain.
Here in Oklahoma City… face diaper mandate in place since mid-July. I have yet to wear a mask. Former employer (Premier Truck Group-OKC) demanded I comply with mandate in order to work. I quit, enjoyed a five week vacation before going to work for a PTG customer.
I ignore all face condom signs. I also open carry so perhaps this is why no employee at any business establishment bothers me.
I do not serve the servants.
Yeah, our little commie turncoat chicken of a governor who is now fully married to the lies and propaganda being perpetrated by big pharma has extended our statewide “mask up, Utah” mandate until January 21, because – you know – Our pioneer forefathers would be up in arms over this shizz….funny thing is, we have been “masked up” for at least two months now and the numbers of citizens who have supposedly tested positive for Covid has only increased. But hey, those masks work and will save all of our lives!
England has closed her border to us in Scotland.
This time, we didn’t even have to send them.
Some common sense from the master of social commentary on germs and immunity.
North Central PA here, defying orders, many restaurants/ diners stayed open. I have yet to put on a mask and have had no problems entering businesses. Moving 3 feet of snow we received Thursday is the biggest problem.
We got a foot, but with it turning to sleet ended up with 6 of wet sloppy stuff. Saw a few idiots out shoveling in masks… Most were not.
Did the minimum, because God will take care of it in a couple of days.
