    Personal responsibly, is just that and not to be legislated.

    One has nothing to do with the other.

    What by not supporting infanticide, like the progressive Democrats do

    Never happened, they supported the largest middle class tax cuts in history. Unfortunately to collect one a person must be making a living, not sucking on the government teat, which is how a lot of progressive liberals got left out of the tax cut.

    Total Bull Crap and you know it.

    It's the progressive liberal Democrats who are G*dless and threaten others for wanting to be free of government controls and regulations, something which you have already publicaly done in this very forum.

    Think about it, you are actually part of the problem of which you are complaining others are complicit in.

    And that folks is called reflecting, when they call you what they are actually are.
    Nice try have any more

    If only florida can be responsible like New York and Illinois, we'd be a death trap too!

    Were dam lucky to have Desantis, now knock off the monkey business and save your silly insults for those like Cuomo and Pritzker who apparently want as many dead constituents as possible with the rest of them dead broke.

    We are. A million plus cases, almost 20,000 dead. MoRon DeathSantis wont so much as TRY a mask mandate. That's why hes getting replaced. America replaced Trump for his anti-mask COVID-denying stupidity and Florida is going to do the same with DeathSantis in just 2 short years. Get ready.

    You took every one of those points and made it about Democrats. Problem is I'm not talking about Democrats I'm talking about Republicans so why don't you engage on that first then we can switch it up and talk about the other side. You say reflecting implying I'm a Democrat, I'm not in fact as it says in my signature I'm an Independent. Was a Republican right up until the last 6 months or so when the right's COVID response/attitude drove my away. Those things I listed were some of the reasons and I just feel like I should list them all over again so here ya go:

    Claims to believe in personal responsibility -> but wont do their part in reducing infection.
    Claims they'd do anything for their country -> but wont wear a mask.
    Claims to be pro-life -> but wont help save lives.
    Claims to be fiscally conservative -> supports massive bailouts for companies that can weather the storm if they'd just reduce high salaries and pause bonuses.
    Claims to love God -> but doesn't follow His word.

    Want to put money on it?

    I know you are wrong, so it's a winning bet for me.

    Not at all other than point how much many of your ideas are right out of the Democrast playbook, dominance, demand and when that fails violence.

    You could care less about health, it's all about follow your rules or pay a price.

    I'll do this. Come the time should DeathSantis win I'll make a donation to a reputable charity of your choosing and if it goes the other way you can donate to one I choose. We'll leave the amount up to donor.

    It's a shame you never realized, most children grow out of re-making silly names about people they want to make fun of, by the 6th grade.

    Now you will surely trigger someone, don't you know "personal responsibility" is one of those "Republican traits" the left likes to mock people for? ;)

    Kidding aside, you're exactly correct. Personal responsibility. Not a nanny state with wear-a-mask rules.

    People can wear a mask all they like, they don't need a national mask mandate :roll: Wear a hazmat suit if you want! (I won't, but anyone else is welcome to!)


    Imagine (especially for those hellbent on politicizing this) if it weren't for Florida's bluest areas, I think Florida has actually kicked ass with our COVID response. I wish I had the time right now to pull up Florida's numbers MINUS the blue counties, to compare it with the rest of the country. Maybe tomorrow.... I'm curious now!

    You are acting as if Florida is in some sort of pre-COVID era of no masks and shaking hands. Every store I go to requires a mask. Every restaurant requires a mask to and from your table, and all the employees where masks. Frankly nothing has changed. What specifically are you complaining about?

    I'm up and down the gulf coast, 4 red counties 1 blue, so I'll remark on what I see in these areas. Yea, most big box and some independent stores have mask 'requirements'... that they don't enforce... that everyone knows they don't enforce. I count the people while I get my curbside; Publix maybe 50% masked, Sams Club maybe 50%, Walmart barely 5%. Whats it like in your area? Because around here the word is out, ignore the posted signs and management wont say a word. They won't even ask you to mask up let alone remove you and everyone in the community knows it.

    I've not been inside any restaurant sine 2019 but every single parking lot is packed at the places I drive by. Schools in my county aren't shutting down and they're cutting distance learning, no new enrollments accepted. I've got a few teachers on my social media feed they post photos of their classes sometimes, maybe 1 in 10 students is wearing a mask.

    Florida did not get its 1+ million cases and nearly 20k deaths by following the rules. We got it by belligerently and selfishly flaunting them.

    Same in my county in CO. Nobody gives a shyt despite a mask mandate. there are only 3 businesses in the county which enforce the mandate. Mine and 2 small grocery stores.
    Wall Mart, Safeway, City Market, Big R and so on have signs, but they do not enforce it.
    Guess what, our infection rate is now exploding over the last 4 weeks, exponential, hospital is full, they have to fly them out. Same for all the neighbor counties.

    Its a PR stunt nothing more and people have become wise to it. I also noticed a huge surge in anti-masking after the election which I can only conclude is the result of people being butthurt that Pres Trump lost and they're taking it out on the community because they foolishly believe its an act of patriotic defiance.

    They are just like a bunch of spoiled little children, we did not win, but we deserved to win.
    So unfair.
    Well, I guess, they will pay for it and quiet a few of them will die, so unfair, and quiet a few will suffer for the rest of their lives from the side effects, so unfair.
    How stupid are they, can it get any worse, probably.
    Dumm as a rock.
    Just a few more month discipline and one can get vaccinated.

    But than they probably refuse to take the shot, too.
    They will invent hundreds of CT stories why not to take the shot.
    Soros, Bill Gates, world government, socialism, Marxism, Cuba, Venezuela, the WHO, UN, Chinese, you name it.

    Had a guy over take me today, he had painted the rear window with foock Biden he is a communist.
    Do I need to say more.

    CO is lying to itself.
    The standard for the statistical increase is a week, the number cases per 100 thousand. CO does calculate the number by 2 weeks.
    If one does the 1 week, my county is over 500, weekly, per 100 thousand, with an increase over over 100 to 130 each week, over the last 4 weeks. 4 weeks ago we did something like 10 to 15, per week, nothing to worry about.
    We do 10 times now. Once the threshold of linear is broken and nothing is done, to stop it and make it linear again, the explosion just continues and gets bigger, that is math.
    Rural Hospital with 12 ICU beds, ain't that something, serving Dolores County, which has no Hospital, ain't that something.

    But, Soros, Bill Gates, Freedom, MY Egoistic Freedom.................

    I am glad to see plenty of people not want or refuse a good vaccine.

    That means I can get mine quicker!

    I'm in the Central Florida area and I'm seeing nothing like what you are seeing. To use your examples, Publix I see generally 98% masked, and almost the same for Wal-Mart. In fact, an unmasked person is noticeable in such a store because they are so rare. Wal-Mart still has someone at the entrance to make sure everyone has a mask on entering.

    I realize that we're just trading anecdotal experiences, but I have a hard time believing that only 5% of the customers in Wal-Mart on the Gulf Coast are wearing masks.

    My hope, too, the earlier the better.
    Supplies will be limited and the more Bunker Boys idiot refuse the earlier I get it.
    Let them croak, if they want to, Darwin will take care of them.

    I'm reading that a growing number of obstetricians are recommending that pregnant women not take the vaccine due to a virtually non-existent inclusion of pregnant women in clinical vax trials. Scary to think that they'll still be quite vulnerable for the time being.
