cnycentral.com/news/coronavirus/maskless-crowds-at-syracuse-university-football-game-as-campus-cases-surgeThe photo tells the story of total disregard for anything but their own pleasure. 30,000 plus people crammed into a football game and hardly a mask in sight. We have the same situation here in this area. There was a music festival downtown over the weekend that was attended by thousands and news coverage shows very few people wearing masks. This coming week is race week, and the campers and fans are already moving into the local campgrounds. There will be thousands of race fans in the stands, in the restaurants and stores, and in the densely crowded vendor area outside the grandstand. There is also a county fair this week. Hospitals are overflowing with patients, the majority of whom are unvaccinated, stores are crowded with shoppers, the majority of which do not wear a mask, and people still crowd the bars, and super spreader events with no regard for safety. I have little sympathy for those that are unvaccinated, unmasked, and infected. One way to reach "herd immunity" will be when all those morons have died, thinning the herd one stupid ass at a time. My sympathy lies with their families and the people that their ignorance exposes and infects. Personally, regardless of whether it is government over reach or not, I think the only way we will come out of the latest surge is government mandates on masks and vaccinations. We have done mandatory vaccination for small pox, polio, and rubella, so why is this deadly virus pandemic any different?

Like they say they are free to do what they want. The virus is also free infecting at will. I wonder if a few hundred of then drop dead if they will get the point. I doubt it.

I remember when this all started, and the lack of willingness to wear a mask and practice social distancing. I made the comment to one of the guys I work with that people would not take it seriously until their children started dropping. Sadly, I think this will be the standard in the end.
One of the guys that works in the AP office made fun of the masks and the shot..........until the entire AP office contracted it. The entire Asset Protection team was out for almost a month! That left me being the only "semi-trained" person left up there. I think they robbed us blind then.
He, as well as the rest of the team, have had their shots and dutifully wear their masks now. They didn't get sick enough for hospitalization, but all agree they never want to go through it again. They're all believers now.

I get a kick out of seeing people wearing their masks to hold up their chin or wear it below their nose.

Take a look at the political leanings of people who won't mask up or get the shot & who's leading them & you'll get your answer. Those monsters, because that's what they are, are risking the lives of thousands of people because they don't want Biden to get credit for ending this pandemic & nobody will convince me otherwise.
And nobody will convince me otherwise because their arguements are based on a pack of lies & they have no scientific evidence to back up one thing that they're claiming.
Peole like Abbott, Desantis, Noem & a few others are taking advantage of the ignorance of people who listen to them to push a political agenda & people are dying & getting deathly ill because of it.

We're having protests here too. I don't buy the religious beliefs excuse. When the Bible was written there were none of the things they are claiming today. Murder is against most beliefs but does a health care worker have the right to pick and chose if they are going to take care of them. What happened to the Hippocratic oath?

Actually religious leaders of all religions are actively encouraging their people to get vaccinated. So I do not get this religious exemption crap.

I guess these idiots are fans of Patrick Henry's "give me liberty or give me death" speech. Hopefully their pursuit of liberty doesn't bring about their death. (or the death of someone else that they infect.)
