    :rolleyes: And you wonder why Florida is spiking. Why are there so many crazies in Florida. Is it the heat? The First Lady in the video “masks are killing people”. Another lady saying “we are turning our backs to god’s breathing system” you can’t make this **** up if you tried. Seriously wtf. If they ever did a prequel to the movie Idiocracy. This would be it.

    forced mask wearing being called a “crime against humanity”

    some random, uneducated dumbass questioning the credentials and schooling of a professional...

    Covid-19 has created a wave of Google physicians...a plethora of morons who finished medical school in 3 months via the internet and now think they know better than the medical community

    Florida is the home of the crazy.

    if a zombie apocalypse were to ever happen, Florida would be ground zero...half of the residents wouldn’t recognize what’s happening at 1st tho and think it’s just their neighbor acting weird or having a bad day...dumb and crazy is in abundance in Florida

    I've heard some of these trump cult members talking to each other about how wearing a mask makes you more susceptible to getting Covid-19 because once it get in your mask it is then trapped. These are the same people that thought it was (or is) fake and in case it wasn't then drinking water or putting a hair dryer up to their face would kill the virus.

    If that doesn't get you, the CO2 poisoning will! These so called experts are killing themselves and don't even know it.

    Remember when it was proven the summer heat would kill the virus? Those people aren't wearing masks right now.

    yeahh,,,smh...

    Additionally they should have never opened bars. With loud music you have to yell louder spitting more droplets and you're closer than normal. Add to that that this is all indoors with a/c that doesn't support the kind of filtration system necessary. Then you're usually there for a couple of hours drinking alcohol that makes you spit more droplets. it's no wonder the 18-30 year olds are seeing a spike. Did they not learn anything from S Korea?

    Anti-Mask Floridians Hurl Conspiracy Theories At Officials In Wild Public Meeting
    Palm Beach County commissioners were told they would be “punished by God” ahead of their vote to require that face masks be worn in public.

    By Josephine Harvey

    As Palm Beach County, Florida, battles an alarming spike in coronavirus cases, some speakers at a heated public hearing attacked county commissioners as “communist dictators” who follow “the devil’s laws” as they prepared to vote on a mandate for wearing face masks in public.

    During public comments before the unanimous vote in favor of the mask requirement on Tuesday, a majority of speakers opposed the move, according to local news station WPTV. Some of these speakers, as The Daily Beast reports, denied that masks were effective against spreading COVID-19 and accused officials of playing God, violating the Constitution and threatening freedom and lives by imposing the measure.

    One speaker threatened to perform a citizen’s arrests on the officials for going “against the freedom of choice.”

    “Every single one of you that’s obeying the devil’s laws are going to be arrested. And you are going to be arrested for crimes against humanity,” the woman declared.

    “Every single one of you has a smirk behind that little mask, but every single one of you are going to get punished by God. You cannot escape God ... not even with the mask or 6 feet.”

    The woman touched on several other theories, including a suggestion that the public officials could be part of a “deep state” of rogue officials.

    This angry Florida woman argued today against the mask mandate, while bringing up the devil, 5G, Bill Gates, Hillary Clinton, "the pedophiles" and the deep state.

    Enjoy...

    Another woman told commissioners, “I want to know who is getting paid off and where is the mandate coming from.”

    “Well, guess what, the riots are spreading, too!” she continued. “And what the hell are we going to do about that? We’re going to arrest patriots for not wearing a mask? That’s what you want?”

    She concluded her remarks: “And I say Trump 2020!”

    COVID-19 cases in the county have surged since it entered the first phase of Florida’s reopening plan on May 11, Dr. Alina Alonso, director of the Florida Department of Health in Palm Beach County, said during her testimony at the hearing.

    “Our numbers are going in the wrong direction,” she said. She reminded attendees that masks are intended to protect both themselves and others. People are entitled to their rights, she said, but these public health laws are intended for people’s safety.

    Vice Mayor Robert Weinroth, who strongly opposed a mask mandate previously, said the surge in cases had changed his mind.

    “I hate the idea of talking about mandatory face coverings. It goes against my grain,” Weinroth said. “But the numbers we saw this week were just out of this world.”

    One man, who identified himself as Butch Dias and “an American patriot,” said that he “would die” for the Constitution, which he said commissioners were failing to uphold.

    “You probably already have your orders already taken care of. You don’t really care. You could have at least faked it. You do not care about We the People. It’s pathetic. It breaks my heart, because I would die for that flag, I would die for this country and I would die for the Constitution,” he said.

    A speaker who said she had a medical condition that prevented her from wearing a mask told the commissioners she didn’t believe there was any evidence that masks prevent the spread of COVID-19.

    “You’re not God,” she told the panel. “You’re removing our freedoms and stomping on our constitutional rights by these communist dictatorship orders… If you do vote to mandate masks in the workplace and public schools and stores, the death of many will be on your hands.”

    The hearing erupted into chaos after the vote; some in the audience screamed insults and threats at the commissioners.

    From Thursday, masks will be required in public places in Palm Beach County.

    I looked up Butch (https://www.linkedin.com/in/butch-dias-79872837/), and he was so willing to die for the flag...that he didn't serve in the military when he had a chance to do so during the Vietnam War. Instead, he attended the Massucheusetts Maritime Academy from 1973-1977, but never actually joined the Merchant Marines after finishing up his degree there. Instead, he moved to Florida and worked as a Martime Engineer for basically the rest of his life.

    They need to go to McDonald's or other similar business places and demand that they not have to wear shirts and shoes in those places. Hell, why stop there, stop demanding clothes at all...people should be able to wear nothing if they want to...there's no evidence of it stopping the virus either.

    And glasses or corrective lenses...the DMV needs to stop putting that on licenses...if people want to drive without their corrective lenses, they should be able to...there's no evidence to show that they get in more wrecks without them.

    God...these people are idiots.

    Someone said it best when they said not wearing a mask is like drinking and driving. It might not kill you but it might kill someone else.

    Some people don't understand that it's more about everyone than it is about them. I didn't realize there were so many narcissistic people in this world.
