I don’t know the guy well enough to dig any deeper. He’s a decent neighbor but a pretty loony dude. My other neighbor (another southern white guy in his 70s) talked to him and said to me “I didn’t know people like that actually existed.”
The virus is a hoax! It’s a conspiracy! The vaccines will control you! Anyways, did you hear about the guy that bought a picture of a monkey butthole for $5 million dollars? What a fucking genius. What an investment.
Good thing I refuse to fly anywhere anyways. Sucks for our parents trying to see their grandkid but fuck it, at least people don’t have to wear masks anymore!
Deeply disappointing to see an airline craft its policy in response to this dogshit judge who knows nothing about health and almost as little about the fucking law. I hope loyalists (like myself) rake them over this.
Well it the White House aren’t putting up a fight on it so I’m not sure what you expected them to do.
what a great victory for all the freedom fighters who have had their liberties trampled on for far too long.
wish they’d punish anti vaxxers more but just a nothing story as seen by the WH not pushing back at all
It’s even greater to be mid trip with my family needing to fly back tomorrow from…. Florida. Going to be an absolute shit show. Wonder if flight attendants show up for work.
It was going on May 3rd anyway. The pre flight test before international flights is the big one now. Ridiculous that fully vaccinated people still require one. Not sustainable at all.
Guys, there’s no way a contagious variant is gonna surge if we remove one of the things that keep it from spreading across the country. What could possibly go wrong?
Yeah I think there is a big difference lowering mask requirements in a place like a large grocery store and a small metal tube where everyone is crammed together for long periods of time that also happens to be delivering possible carriers to different parts of the country.
there have been hundreds of fully attended indoor and outdoor sporting events with little to no mask mandates in multiple super blue states and things are still cruising along
Sometimes i wonder how many people would do some ghastly shit if there wasnt some authority figure to order them not to
That’s cos that’s fun stuff, like also going to a tightly confined restaurant. And you can yank it off when eating and drinking on a plane which people do liberally. I’d rather pay for immunocompromised people to have universal access to high grade masks and respirators than unsustainable theatre as this ain’t going away.
I think you’re misconstruing the title, he is very much against it and presents Arizona as the example the extreme right have used on migrants. http://cup.columbia.edu/book/securing-borders-securing-power/9780231203777 His recent tweets should tell you what he thinks on migrants…
We're prob going to find out before too long in the US, except the authority figure will be egging them on.
It's a very deep cut but if you guys can recall, there was a rich dude in his late 20s who donated to trump and was part of his campaign in 2016 in Florida . His wife was a fledgling lawyer, never tried a case since joining the bar as lead or even co-counsel. Trump made her a federal judge, in spite of beinf rated emphatically not qualified. Guess who was the judge who struck this down lmao
when the admin extended it for a few weeks had a feeling this was coming , they should have dropped the test requirement for US passport holders first on their own
I flew Oslo to London two weeks ago on British Airways, which was my first mask optional flight, and maybe 5% of passengers wore masks.
I don’t have super strong feelings about this. I’ll still mask up. I bet most people won’t. I’m sure there will be a weird social divide between people that do and don’t. But this day was coming.
