What some have become
Sadly the wearing of masks and the taking of prescription drugs have become political symbols in this country with progressives trying to own the wearing of masks. I wear a mask whenever I go out and I use social distancing. I wash my hands thoroughly whenever I come home - It's the first thing I do.
I urge everyone to wear masks whenever they go into a public place like a store and I urge them to even put masks on those sweet innocent kids as well. It is the sad time in which we exist.
That being said, this is unforgivable:
Forget the balance of that tape - To look into the eyes of young children and say "I hope you all die!" is unforgivable!
Then again what else can we expect from the crazies we live with?
They are grotesque!
Trump and his supporters are clearly off topic
Hate comments will not be tolerated
Interesting you wrote about the hate being spewed regarding COVID and precautions against it. I wrote an article about all the other craziness going on.
You're right, it's unacceptable to barrage others with hate and anger, especially over something like this. It's far more productive to express concern and have a pleasant conversation with someone than it is to yell, scream, and spew aggression.
Agreed. I would use every possible way to persuade people, but saying "I hope you die????" And to little children? How did we come to this?
Where are your comments about the guy in Walmart (without a mask) who pulled a gun on someone who mentioned masks to him?
Or the woman who pulled down a whole shelf of product in the grocery store because the manger told her she needed a mask?
Why don't you post that one, John?
because the guy without a mask and with a gun didn't wear a MAGA hat?
You can't fathom the subject matter from making comments?
I'll let you know.

male karens are the future... lol
Hilarious! I love it.
Jesus, what the hell wrong with people .....
Unfortunately, this is human nature. People are frustrated by the inconvenience and financial pressure brought about by the fight against COVID-19 and are lashing out at others ... basically venting. While it is irresponsible to be in public places and not adhere to social distancing, wearing a mask, keeping hands clean, etc. there is no excuse for getting irrationally angry at the irresponsible and death-wishing.
This will likely get worse until we have a vaccine or equivalent that will enable us to return to a more normal routine.
Well said.
This really has nothing to do with Covid or masks - it is about self preservation.
People are scared of protesters - not because they break some windows but because they fear that they will break down their doors and kill them.
People are scared of groups of protesting citizens openly carrying semi-automatic rifles - not because the oppose 2nd amendment rights but because they are afraid they will kill them.
Minorities are scared of the police - not because they oppose law and order but because they fear that police will look for an excuse to kill them.
People are scared of those who will not wear masks - not because because they oppose personal liberty but because they fear that the individual could be a carrier of Covid and so could kill them.
(Consider, if someone walked up to you in the grocery store, pulled a .22 revolver (9 shot), broke it open, inserted one cartridge, closed the revolver, spun the cylinder, then pointed it at you - what would your reaction be?)
If you had a gun, in many stand your ground states, you could shoot them and not be charged with a crime.
1/9 is close to the probability someone over 70 faces if they contract Covid-19.
Is scaring little children ever appropriate? No.
Is telling adults that they are selfish a##holes ever appropriate? Yes.
Halloween maybe?
