Instead of "Show me your papers", it will now be "Show me your PPE". Of course, after the way Cuomo and Defailio have handled everything there, it will also be Monty Python's "Bring Out Your Dead".

That can't be. The completely honest and non biased media tells me that there are no more masks in the entire world, because of the Bad Orange Man.

I'm pretty sure that's unconstitutional, and even IF masks were somehow available, I'll wear what I want to wear regardless of what the mobster or big bird say.

I, for one, can't wait for the wave of lawsuits against these tyrannical governors.

That's how "this thing of ours" works.
Some non-robe wearing govt employees checked with the some robe wearing employees, who said it was okay to do

Sounds like a Dr. Suess story.

I wonder if this will apply to Fredo....now that we know his "quarantine" is a lie.

But you see a mask is not being required nor a burka. You are just being forced to cover your nose and mouth with something just as society requires you to cover your genitals and the female's nipples with something.

Last year when the cop was the one we listened to when pushing public safety it was flipped as the debate was to uncover all faces so they could get biometric data and they had support among those who thought the females from some cultures were dehumanized since only the females and not the males were covering their face. Now the public health doctor is responsible for our safety and I wonder when or even if the cop will again be the one we listen to.

I reason for the general public to wear masks is to keep them from spreading Covid 19 to others and not to protect themselves. The problem is that people can be contagious five days prior to showing any symptoms. Also, there are others who show are infected and not showing any symptoms at all yet are highly contagious.

The only solution here that will work is 100% testing. This should be the responsibility of the federal government, but with our failed leader Trump only the states will be able to accomplish this.

DUMP TRUMP, get the tests we need, forget the masks, and get back to work.

You want to test 340 million people? How would we even force compliance? Would the 12 million illegal aliens show up for their test (since they are known not to follow laws)?
