You are the single
most predictable
person on this board.

Tell me why if a group of actors are tested and vaccinated, they can forgo masks. But kids who are tested and vaccinated, Can’t.

are kids getting sick more than adults? is that what you’re saying?? are you saying children are a riskier group than adults? have fun with that.

Does your son only go to school with 15 year olds? have they all be vaccinated ?.. Why does a mask bother you as bad as someone Throwing an Egg ? Republicans act as if a Mask is a yellow star or some evil form of control ... it's just a mask .. To bad parents can't adjust to mask wearing as effortlessly as Children.. there is always the home school approach freedom of choice is still alive and well

at my sons school, they’re all vaccinated ( private school).

why change the subject?

answer - even you know you can’t discuss this subject, and not have your side look stupid.

you’re dodging the question completely. because you know you can’t answer it without losing the argument.

how the hell do you know, how effortlessly kids are adjusting?

why can’t actors adjust to wearing their masks?

because you can only criticize the right. you’re a brain dead parrot.

everyone of you is exactly the same.

You’ll criticize republicans for
mask hesitancy, but. it these people. Please explain why?

have fun!

answer - even you know you can’t discuss this subject, and not have your side look stupid.

mask requirements do not extend to private schools? Or is that not the case in Conn

you’re dodging the question completely. because you know you can’t answer it without losing the argument.

Again you compare kids in school to adults at an event

how the hell do you know, how effortlessly kids are adjusting?

Just ask. I see kids outside my door at the bus stop from high school middle schools and elementary they all are outside and still wear their masks as easily as being on their phones

why can’t actors adjust to wearing their masks?

Their venue didn’t require it it’s really that simple.

because you can only criticize the right. you’re a brain dead parrot.

The right only deserves criticism
Because they all are complicit in the big lie
Trump Asks Georgia to Decertify 2020 Election Results, Calls for Naming of 'True Winner'

But masks is a bigger issue than stealing an election. It’s called priorities



everyone of you is exactly the same.

You’ll criticize republicans for
mask hesitancy, but. it these people. Please explain why?

have fun!

Now it’s called mask hesitancy .. Democratic’s wear them as and where required

GOPQ don’t wear them because it’s about Freedom

Do you not pay attention to anything those you support actually say and do?

Again Jim why do you provide examples that are not remotely the same .. yes some Dems got caught disregarding their own mask orders
For you it’s like the girl throwing the egg ! you are incapable of seeing the big picture . How many maskless people at Trump rallies how many GOP lawmakers using executive orders they claim to hate so towns and businesses can’t mandate masks I don’t see you outraged when they are caught wearing one ? Because it’s a freedom issue … just say it

PS if your kids in a private school why does the mask mandated apply? My understanding it’s a private school thing same for vaccines

you said dems wear the masks, republicans don’t. i disproved that. instead of saying i have a point, you say my examples “are not the same” yet naturally you don’t say why they’re not the same.

our catholic schools are following state mandates. i don’t tell my kids not to wear them, i’m not even saying i’m opposed to them wearing them ( there are experts on both sides, but zero consensus), just asking an obvious question, which has every single one of you twisted in knots because even you know, as TDF said, it’s a glaring double standard, but you can’t say it out loud, because you are a slave to liberalism and are incapable of criticizing it.

You “feeling the spirit” yet?

yup, most of these schools are following state guidance .... I'm coaching by a private school, if another school has a vax policy we have to abide by that whether home or away....most of the policy is actually guided by fear of lawsuits more than anything

sorry, here’s my favorite.

San Francisco has a mandate saying that if you’re in a bar or restaurant, unless you’re eating or drinking, you have to wear a mask.

Then there was video of the mayor dancing in a bar with no mask. Not eating or drinking at the time

Clearly, she violated her own mandate.

Her defense? In her own words, she wasn’t thinking about her mask, because she “ was feeling the spirit.”

that’s now a defense of violating her own mandates. “Feeling the spirit.”.

Can’t make that one up, i dare you to try.

The Emmy's were a single event with a few thousand people, it would likely be be impossible to test millions of kids frequently enough not to mention for the schools to manage it.

Many, many schools do regular testing. Most colleges tested students weekly all last year. Not sure what planet you've ben living on. My son's school tests everyone, every two weeks. What else ya got?

Just keep making stuff out of thin air, Mr Common Sense, as long as it serves The Narrative.

Nation wide there are some 80 million students, not to mention a lot of states and schools that would refuse to do it. Doesn't seem like the protocols in place right now are that demanding, why change if the rates of infection are still too high?

ok let’s make it really simple.

so in my sons school, where every kid is vaccinated and every kid is tested every other week, why should he have to wear a mask, especially when they are socially distancing, , while these adults ( a far riskier group) aren’t required to do so, while sitting on top of one another.

That would be, because life isn't fair.

Don't feel bad, most Karens failed to learn that lesson.

how does it make sense?

are you afraid guys become a menstruating person, if you just admitted the optics are awful?

i tried 3-4 times here. you guys just can’t be reasoned with unless it’s an issue that paints liberalism favorably.

because masks make good sheep training....

remember Fauxshi said triple mask are a good idea...I think that was before the delta variant so 5-6 masks is probably the way to go

Great timing for that lame argument.

New York City announced today that they will test all public school children weekly.

Same thing in Los Angeles...
