The more you talk the more you seem confused, steel. Trust in angels and prayer is the direct equivalent to trust in “public health officials”.
One is as good as the other.
a number of states are allowing people to not wear a mask.
some think this is disastrous!

I see there have been several pages of “discussion” since i last was here and it would be impractical to address it all, but i will say this about the suggestion i want anarchy ‘like the rest of my gun toting friends’
not at all. I was very clear about “limited government”, not “no government”. I also never claimed to own a gun nor suggested anything related to violence in the least. Interesting that you read it that way.... in fact it is the government that enforces it demands at the barrel of a gun. Dont believe me? Refuse a jail sentence and what happens? Refuse to follow a “lawful order” of any sort from a cop and what happens? Violence and the threat of it is EXACTLY what governments use to enforce their arbitrary rules on us all, i wish it to be different, not simply my rules at the end of my gun.
I have thus far resisted posting this because the point for me is not the effectiveness or lack thereof of masks but some on this thread are so dull mentally they simply cannot get away from the small and see a concept of a bigger picture. I will therefor have to share this study which demonstrates, using a randomized trial (a truly scientific method of study as opposed to whatever you may FEEL is effective) that shows no difference in infection rates between the masked and umasked. No. Difference.

Covid does not give a damn about your mask. But by all means, wear one. It doesn't affect me in the least... but im not wearing one and it clearly doesn't effect you either. Stop pretending it does.
these cartoons have been labeled by the venerable new york times newspaper as offensive.
they offend mexicans and pepe is a womanizing french skunk too handsy enabling the “rape culture “.
this stuff is getting so ridiculous it isn’t funny.
Why would roadrunner cancelled?

Well Jan, i’ll let you think for a little while on the “how” you would get justice if you were robbed, and on what “justice” is and how best “justice is served.
As for you neighbor, how has the “government” specifically saved her from covid? Does she bear any responsibility herself for her own wellbeing? Can she exercise that responsibility on her own or does the “government” have to make her? Should the government make her? Is the “government” who we really want telling us as individuals whats good for us?
Before you answer please be sure to pay your taxes so my internet works. No government = no internet... right?

Nothing ever gets less expensive when the government is involved. Nothing gets more efficient when the government is involved.

And thats the problem, in a nutshell.
You really believe that you need a “government” to tell you not to murder.
You really believe that you need a “government” to prevent YOU from buying rotten fruit.
You believe that you need the “government” to put out fires.
it says a lot about how useless you are in your own mind. I think you, and people in general, are capable of better than even you think of yourself. I assure you the “government” is no more capable of putting out a fire than it is of stopping a virus.
The government which governs best governs least.

Ghost, you are missing the point. The argument on effectiveness is secondary to the real issue, freedom. In china, hong kong, Britain or any other authoritarian country, being mandated to do something is the norm. Thats not how we, as society in the united states, have traditionally lived. Land of the free, home of the brave. Dangerous freedom over peaceful security.
I dont care one bit if a mask is 99% effective or 2% effective, if you want to wear one (or two or three) masks, knock yourself out, but f off with telling me what to do. Educate, inform, plead if you want, but mandates dont fly here.
Its sad that we are changing and more and more weak minded pukes from other counties have slowly diluted that independent and rugged nature so that now crap like seat belt laws exist and progressively more babysitter minded government shite continues to infringe, but for now at least a narrow majority here still value the freedom to dare to be independent even if we are wrong.

Its even better than that min. If the virus spikes for any reason, no mask was the reason. If the number of cases falls then the vaccine saved the day.
