World Health Organization (WHO) says it is unnecessary for healthy people to go out in public with a mask. Rodney???
Permalink   


ALL Mayors and Governors who make it a crime to go out in public without a mask should be sued, fined and thrown in jail themselves for being such a stinking anti-Constitution Anti-liberty and Anti-freedom Tyrant!!!!  And make that go for Rodney McMullen, too!  

The United States was once known as the LAND OF THE FREE and HOME OF THE BRAVE.

Now, we are the LAND OF THE UN-FREE and HOME OF THE WORRIED, SCARED, and CONFUSED.

Why would they need to be fined or sent to jail?Going around nude is illegal.A mask is a piece of clothing.Laws can be created to keep you wearing clothes in public.If you are going to fuss about people being forced to wear masks,you should fuss about people being forced to wear any clothing.

I've already decided I'm going to take a leave of absence if they tell me I have to wear a mask.  I can do it too.

We are forced to wear a mask or being sent home if you dont wear one which started this past week.  Its been almost 3 mos since all this started yet no one in our store has been sick when we were not wearing masks. Thinking of taking a leave too. 
Im having panic attacks when wearing one for 8 hrs. You cant breathe in those things!

 It's just plain stupid.  First of all, it's a little late to suddenly be deciding to have employees wear masks after all this time.  The second thing is unless you're wearing them correctly all the time, it doesn't do a bit of good.  I see people constantly taking them on and off their face.  Frankly, I'm just sick and tired of all the hysteria over the damn thing.

... Are you being serious? How about while you're spending all this time at home, you read the book 1984 by George Orwell and then do some thinking on it. Because that's the sort of world you're supporting when your brain works that way, twisting logic to suit your own sad paranoia and need for control.

 

Please, I insist: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/1984-george-orwell/1100009100?ean=9780648046615

 Let me paint you a more educated picture without all the white trash counterintuitive talking points.

Your freedoms end when someone else's begins, a person has a right to not get sick. 

What your saying is. 

Your neighbors die, because of your decision to cough and spit near his property after not being safe. 

 

Now, muh freedoms involve guns, can I fire wildly at your home spouting my freedom? Or does my freedom end when your right to life begins? 

 

While we are on the topic, you also have the freedom to choke down a 9mm or a 45 from your own hand, and that won't hurt anyone, including your parents.

 

Anyone who thinks km being harsh? I'm not the dumb white trash killing people. Op Is.

The flu kills people too. Should we thus be forced to wear masks and stay locked up in our homes forever?

 

Apparently you don't believe in freedom. You love the government running every minute detail of your life.

 

The vast majority of people don't have the virus. Of those that do, the vast majority survive, even the elderly. Read the facts instead of believing everything big brother tells you.

 Oh, give me a break! Everyone complains about their loss of freedom, but no one thinks about a SECOND WAVE of this thing...The Michigan governor here has said this, for example...

https://www.wzzm13.com/article/news/health/coronavirus/masks-worn-michigan-order/69-2920685e-5759-4862-9897-dce968f1f0e7

Notice that she says SHOULD be wearing one in public...It's a GUIDELINE, people! If it is medically necessary that you can't wear one, you will NOT be prosecuted for it...In fact, no one will be prosecuted if they DON'T wear one, but they SHOULD and I personally wouldn't risk going out without one...Don't like it??? Get sick then!!! Go spread it to 100 other people...Heck, open up your economies and spend all your waking hours playing golf or attending dinner parties or rubbing up against a million other protestors in a public march!!! I DON'T CARE!!! YOU'LL find out soon enough!!! I'm sick and tired of people thinking they know better than the doctors and medical experts do...And the numbers of cases don't tell the whole story...With the way things are now, I'm PERSONALLY gonna keep on wearing mine for as long as needed...

I swear, the Asian nations are so much better at this than us here and they are MUCH MORE CONCERNED about these things when they happen! If they weren't, you'd be looking at SARS and MERS all across America and probably THIS one on top of that!!!

Sure, wearing a mask is not the cure-all for viruses, but at least they know how to be prepared when the sh** hits the fan! We're left scrambling to figure things out!!!

And I don't understand how we had a 1918 flu pandemic and yet...Our Constitution didn't go away when that one ended...How is it that people are crying foul NOW about their "Constitutional rights"??? We've forgotten that history repeats itself and that we NEVER learn anything from past events...We're never concerned about the next problem to hit us, the next pandemic, the next hurricane, the next war, etc. and when it comes, we all complain...Why wasn't anyone prepared??? If this thing abates over the summer, you guys better be prepared for it to come roaring back in the fall, along WITH the flu virus! But, in the meantime, maybe you can get your priorities and your thinking...and possibly your house...in order!

I swear...If...or I should say WHEN we have the next pandemic, I sure hope we'll have learned some lessons from this one, so we don't repeat the same mistakes or we're in for a LONG road of struggles!no

The moral is...The social distancing has worked and IS working...Otherwise, things would be even worse than they are now...For things to return to somewhat normal, though, the case counts in every state are going to have to dramatically decrease...All this "Re-Open The Economy" talk is gonna backfire big time if all the progress we've made so far goes down the tubes with a surge in irresponsiblity...The governors are doing what's right, at least most of them or the ones who are listening to the medical experts...It's not like they DON'T want to get their economies going again, but the health of the citizens HAS to come first!!! As Emerson once said, "The first wealth is health!"

Please, you are drinking the communist Kool-aid without a second thought.    I hate to break it to you, but China proper (not Taiwan) is run by the Chinese Communist Party, which is widely known as a gigantic Propaganda Machine that tells lies and spreads misinformation Constantly to the rest of the world.  And now, many of the American MSM outlets are stooping to the low of actually defending China, in their efforts to discredit Trump.

The total current numbers of COVID-19 -positives and actual total deaths in the country of China are virtually UNKNOWN. They are almost certainly being highly under-reported.  Their "official" numbers being handed out to the worldwide media have been bogus, and the other day they suddenly did a "minor" correction and then the reported numbers of deaths jumped 50% over night. Obviously, the numbers they HAD been giving to the world were not anywhere near the truth. 

The country of China hid the true scope of the pandemic in the first few weeks of the outbreak in Wuhan, kicked out reporters from the US and other countries, and downplayed the seriousness of the situation in their own country.  Investigators from other countries have had major problems in trying to find out just how bad it was, or how seriously to take the information spooned out to them from China. Thus, security experts and advisors to Trump and other world leaders have received conflicting information and they have given out conflicting advice. 

Months later, China is now trying to act like the US is the "bad guy".   Please be aware that you CANNOT automatically believe what the Communist party tells you, either in China, Russia, Cuba, or any other communist party-controlled country in the world.

 OK, I was NOT just talking about China proper...and yes, CHINA DOES LIE AND OFTEN!!! But, with that being said, I was looking at countries like Japan, Singapore, Korea and Hong Kong, too...When I said that the Asian countries are better at this, I was talking about the contact tracing and the social distancing measures, as well...Read this...

https://www.straitstimes.com/asia/east-asia/coronavirus-masks-are-everywhere-in-asia-but-have-they-helped

While the masks are not a cure-all, they ARE part of a broader concern that emphasizes HEALTH OF OTHERS over PERSONAL FREEDOM...In America, we look at politicians telling us to wear masks as dictatorial and unnecessary...In Asia, they automatically look at things from a HEALTH standpoint first and follow the proper directives from the experts...Even in Australia, they are used to quarantines like it is second nature to them...We've never had the same problems here, so this is a new thing for us...It's not just the masks, either, like I said, but ALL measures that they take when an outbreak hits...We in America are behind the eight ball, at least in that regard and now we're paying for our stupidity and lack of vision and preparedness!

When the next one hits (and it will because there are over 1,000,000 viruses out there and any one of them could be a problem), we CAN'T say we weren't warned!!!evileye

What I'm saying is that we need to be more prepared for these things...We are in a "new normal" now and unless we make some drastic changes to how we do things in this country, we'd better get used to it!
