Masks work. Candles on your Christmas tree are dangerous. Running w scissors is dangerous, running w scissors holding a baby is even more dangerous, running w that combo while high is even riskier.
governor Dewine, like so many others is trying to solve a public health crisis,not a political point. Giving people a collective public health approach is just common sense,or what used to be called common sense. If a governor tells you not to drive towards a fire,flood or tornado, those warnings used to be welcome news,seen as an act of caring and conscious,compassion.
Suddenly the information is a violation of civil rights,un patriotic.
Any person who can't forego a coffee,beer,Turkey dinner,or wear a mask for 1 holiday season is a selfish,unpatriotic bag of steaming dogschit.
That's based on science.
I don't know if many here ever served aboard ship. We had lecture after lecture after lecture about keeping things clean for the good of all. Not using resources for the good of all..we were also briefed about looking after one another,
In situations where your judgement may be impaired.on one ship we were given a notebook that contained photos of male and female genitals in different states of disease from partaking in local delicacies of infectious flesh. Told flat out,don't do it..I remember getting my second injection early on in our cruise. Not because I got VD, but because one of my shipmates,could not control himself..our shop supervisor had us line up,remove our pants and underwear, a corpsman then handed you a vile, it was chilled penicillin, you were encouraged to rub it,try and warm it,because when it was injected it would be very uncomfortable and painful. They were right,it hurt like f-ck.
The story has a couple of twists, Mr. Drill Everybody was put on restriction and was not allowed to leave the ship when we were in port and enjoying a great liberty call.
The last twist ,we went to the Philippines,we all got off,ate food,drank and I w a couple of guys went diving to see sea life that blew me away. We got back underway and sure enough the usual suspects all had some ailment,causing fever and infection..the next time we pulled in we were all denied liberty. Nobody was allowed to go ashore that was not a senior NCO or officer,the reasoning was that we couldn't look out for one another. Some troubled sailors were " counseled " using some voodoo like techniques, an exorcism of sorts, were their insatiable desire to f up was beaten out of them.
As the cruise continued the dirty among us, was brow-beaten ,shamed into community compliance for the good of all.
Wearing a mask may harm my family,so to be surprised by reaction to that would only surprise a fool.
A quarter million fellow Americans dead and chumps are still debating wearing masks,nationwide!!
Corona Virus task force "doctor" telling people to " rise up " against health mandates. Jan 20th can't come soon enough.
