The Right To Not Wear A Mask.

Yes, you do have the right to not wear a mask. You have that right as long as you are not around other people. Your right to wear a mask is limited by my right to not be exposed to Covid-19.

You have the right to shoot a pistol as long as you don’t shoot it at me. If you don’t wear a mask, you could be shooting the virus at me. Your right to not mask is limited by my right to not be exposed to a deadly virus.

For those of a religious leaning, the adage do unto others as you would have them do unto you applies to this situation. If you would not want a person with Covid-19 to breathe on you, then don’t breath on them.

Wearing a mask is not just about your freedoms or rights. It is about your fellow citizens right to not be exposed to a deadly virus also.

Your do have a right or freedom to not wear a mask.

YOU DO NOT HAVE A RIGHT TO NOT WEAR A MASK WITHIN TWELVE FEET OF ME THEREBY ENDANGERING ME, MY WIFE, MY CHILDREN, MY GRAND CHILDREN AND MY GREAT GRAND CHILDRN.

Some of you labor under the incorrect impression that a mask wearing law could not be enforced. It would be really easy to enforce. Any business or organization that serves or does business with a mask wearer will be fined $1000 per person or having his business closed for one week for every violation. Cities, counties, and states could give bounties to people who turn in businesses that do not enforec mask laws.

If a consideration of others is not motivation for you to wear a mask in social situations, think about returning to normal. The shortest way to normal is through wearing a mask and social distancing. Once the virus is under control, we and businesses can return to normal.

If you would like to be able to celebrate the holidays next year with your family, wear a mask.

If you would like to have your children return to school, wear a mask.

If you would like to take you spouse or special other out for drinks, dinner, and a movie, wear a mask.

DO FOR OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO FOR YOU .

IT’S COVID-19 !

Before we can safely return to even a new normal, we must control the Covid virus.

That will allow small businesses to reopen.

That will allow all workers to return to work.

That will affect the lives of our colored population as they suffer twice the infections of whites.

That will lessen the deaths of our elderly who drive our economy.

That will enable children to return to school safely without infecting their mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, grandfathers, grandmothers, aunts or uncles.

How do we accomplish this? We know what works – masks, social distancing and hand washing hygene.

How do we get our diverse and fractured society to do this?

  1. Make going without a mask a social taboo with constant public service announcements as was done with smoking.
  2. If we don’t bring down the number of new cases in our city, county or state, then we must close down non-essential businesses. It we must close down businesses, then we must provide aid to businesses and workers to get them through to the time that the new cases are reduced to an acceptable level. Once cases reach an acceptable level businesses can gradually reopen. These closings should be done by city, county or state as some will have outbreaks and some will not.
  3. Make masks, thermometers, oximeters and tests free and instruct how to use them. Evidently, from what I see, it is not that clear that the masks must cover the nose and mouth not just hang around the neck.
  4. Educate, educate, educate! Tell how to monitor for symptoms that is first temperature, then oxygen levels, and blood pressure. Be clear when the symptoms warrant a visit to the doctor.
  5. The sooner we are controlling the virus the sooner we can return to the new normal. What will the new normal look like? I suspect that we will continue to monitor our selves and our families so that we can deal with returning outbreaks.

It is up to us. You can tell who is serious about getting kids back to school and businesses reopened by the presence of a mask worn properly on their face and maintaing social distancing.

Thanks

What’s the Final Day for Vote Counting? Or When is This Election Over?

December 14, 2020 is that date. The states have up to that date to finish counting and certify the results of the election.

Don’t expect or be upset if the decision on who is President is not made before December 14, 2020.

The fifty states have until December 14th to certify the results of that election in their state.

I know we have become used to having this media group or that media group announcing the results in real time. This is no longer “real time”.

We are in the middle of a pandemic, the post office has been decimated, those who know better are floating the idea that there is a huge amount of election fraud. One party is hell bent on disenfrachising the young, the black, the poor and the brown voters. The President is calling vigilantees to “watch” the polls when they are already being watched by official Republican and Democratic watchers.

Therefore, don’t panic. We will get the votes counted by December 14th. We will have a President to be inaugurated Presidency on January 20th, 2021.

Remember that according to the Constitution, December 14, 2020 is when the counting will stop.

Light at the end of the tunnel?

If Trump doesn’t win the election, he will resign so that Pence can pardon him of any and all crimes committed during Trump’s Presidency. No doubt AG Barr will try to find some way to extend the pardon power to crimes committed before he was president and afterwards.

Party Above All?

When businesses suffer from Pandemic?

With people being laid off due to the pandemic?

With people running out of unemployment benefits due to the Pandemic?

With people being evicted from their rental units due to the Pandemic?

With people missing mortgage payments due to Pandemic?

People in food lines due to Pandemic?

With children starving due to the Pandemic?

Republicans did not cause the Pandemic!

REPUBLICANS FAILE TO LEAD US OUT OF THE PANDEMIC BY FOLLOWING PRESIDENT TRUMP, BY NOT COMING UP WITH A PLAN, REFUSING TO BRING UP TO THE SENATE AND VOTE ON THE DEMOCRATIC PLAN.

What are they using their time for during the Pandemic?

Trying to get a person on the Supreme Court that will enable them to get rid of the ACA one of the most popular pieces of legislation ever passed. (Since they have no plan beyond that, one must presume that they want insurance companies to be able to deny coverage for people with pre-existing conditions, cap payments, deny coverage to children on their parents policy and allow junk insurance.)

Also, they want to get rid of Roe v Wade.

There are three things the American voters are in favor of by margins as high as 60%.

One is the need for the Afordable Care Act

Two is legislation to provide needed relief for all our people till we get through this Pandemic and thereby allow the economy to again grow.

Three is keeping Roe v Wade.

SO, YES, IT IS PARTY ABOVE ALL ELSE – PARTICULARLY THEIR CONSTITUENTS!

Where Did They Go?

You remember don’t you? The hordes of mother raping, father raping, drug smuggling, disease infested, child molesting Mexicans from across our unprotectd borders with thighs as big as cantalopes – I been watching. I haven’t seen them. Have you? Do you think you were HOODWINKED by the Republicans under President Trump?

Amy Coney Barrett’s Nomination

I am not concerned about her religious views.

I am not concerned about her limited experience as a trial attorney.

I am not concerned her limited, less than three years, experience as a federal jurist for an appointment for life.

I am concerned about her judgement. Look at the photos above. In the lower left corner you see her husband and more importantly her children in the rose garden where the White House became a Super Spreader hot spot.

She knew the CDC recommendations.

She knew they all should be wearing masks.

She knew they all should be social distancing which would be impossible considering the number of attendees.

She knew that the testing only had a 50 percent reliability rate.

And yet, she still brought her children to the event and exposed them to the most deadly virus to hit the United States in over a hundred years.

What kind of judgement is that? It is the kind of judgement that puts herself above the safety of her children.

She claims to protect the rights of fetuses, but she doesn’t protect her own children?
