i'm sick and tired of the maskholes, there needs to be consequences

my most generous interpretation is they are willfully ignorant fools, or possibly insane
my second-most generous, they are idiots incapable of comprehending PSA's
my third-most generous, they're on mind-altering drugs (alcohol included)
after that, it's murderous terrorists all the way down as far as i'm concerned

regardless, these maskholes are why we can't have nice things and they require consequences

i suggest states implement statutes similar to those restricting public nudity
first violation should be a fine of at least $100
second and third violations should be $500+ fine and 20+ hours of community service on corpse detail and changing bedpans at the local ICU
after that, jail time

most of what is being done is by the state health departments or governor's offices, since state legislatures won't do it.

the entire west coast could enact such laws
this morning i heard about some massless dipshits laying siege to a mall in Vancouver WA and i have had enough. absolutely enough. the time for indulging grown toddlers with biological weapons must end. promptly.

"they're on mind-altering drugs (alcohol included)"

They're definitely on mind-altering "stuff," but the stuff that is altering their minds is hate. Drugs and alcohol are only contributing factors. Hate is more hallucinogenic than than any cactus or fungus or chem lab concoction.

some may also be drunk but I think you're probably correct

either way, it's time for consequences.

The real answer is Americans think they are "blessed".

For my entire life, many people believe that bad things won't happen to them and they are "lucky".

I know this because I work with relatively "normal" people in the factory who won't wear masks and from interactions with other blue collar people at the bars and friends of friends.

whatever the reason, it damn well needs to stop and these "lucky" people need to start paying for their mistakes up front.

i don't see another way out of this.

we simply cannot endure 18 months of closures and ICU death spikes every time there's a new airborne disease.

we have to be willing to care for those around us, or pay a price. i bet these "normal" blue collar people are happy to use turn signals when they drive around, so they're capable of practicing basic public safety. they can wear masks.
