Deep, Cleansing Breaths

People who wear masks value their life and the lives of others.

So if you want to know who hate themselves as much as they hate others, look no further than the naked faces in the grocery aisles.

---------------

The horrid creature that sits behind the Resolute Desk of the White House watching Fox News all day is sending unbadged secret "police" into the streets to arrest random people.

This is a political stunt. That's all it is. Screw the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the Boy Scout oath and that promise you made to your mama to wear clean underpants every day. Fox News needs fodder to ramp up fear, uncertainty, and doubt amongst it's aging, decrepit, pasty-skinned audience and t-Rump is giving it to them.

Innocent people are being disappeared. Just like in those Central American countries Reagan was so fond of invading. For Freedom!

Currently these secret police are in Portland, Oregon but the plan is to expand this assault on the First Amendment to other cities, most likely those with active BLM protests as brown faces being pounded by police is pure porn for Red-Hatters.

I conjectured earlier this week that t-Rump would tamp down the presidential vote in minority districts by posting armed National Guardsmen in front of each polling place. Some people thought I was being alarmist.

Now imagine the secret police standing out front. Still think I'm alarmist much?

----------

Advisers: "Sir, we need to take steps to regain the support of the Latino community. Locking their children in cages and calling them rapists and murderers is not polling well."

t-Rump: "Suppose I burn down their neighborhoods and salt the earth beneath their feet? I haven't tried that yet. Have I?"

Advisers: "Actually, sir, we were hoping for something a little more... relatable."

t-Rump: "Okay, then, how about l have my sexy little daughter, you know which one I mean, and have her hold a can of those Goya beans? I paid a lot of surgeons a lot of rubles for that face and that body and it's not selling too many purses these days so let's put it to good use."

Advisers: "Well, sir, that would actually violate existing ethics laws regarding the promoting of products from a federal office. Besides, there's a possibility that the images would be parodied by your opponents."

t-Rump: "They wouldn't dare! Believe me."

Michael, I understand what you are saying. I forgot I am talking to intelligent people. If I use the meter reference, these rednecks think I am a communist.

Cicely I fully understand. These foaming at the mouth, praise Lord Trump, I.Q. in the low 60’s, total assholes, think every thing the orange Hitler says is the gods honest truth.

Did anyone see the orange fascist interview with Chris Wallace? The one where he said if he lost the election would he accept it and he said “we’ll see. We’ll see.” I can’t seem to find it on the internet.

Shorty Fudpucker---In vain, and repeatedly, and with citations, have I explained that what you're doing with the mask is preventing their "ride" from getting the tiny viruses to their target, stranding them high and dry on the mask when the moisture goes away.

I dunno; maybe they think the little bastards have wire-cutters and can cut their way through, then launch themselves into the air in the hope of hitting a target...any target.

Too many Mission Impossible movies---or a deep, deep lack of understanding of what a virus is?

I know which one I think it is....

Michael Bleiweiss

Just a minor correction:
A micron is a millionth of a meter (10^-6 m).
That also equals 1/1000 mm.

Cecily, I too live in a DEEP red state. If you drill a post hole, republican red bleeds out of the ground.

I have tried to explain about microscopic droplets hanging in the air, and got about as far as an African American at a meeting of southern white extremists. Microns(millionth of an inch) are the measurements used for very small things often used in machining processes. The N95 masks protect down to 0.30 microns. The covid-19 virus is about 0.17 microns. So masks don't protect from the virus itself, but from the droplets that carry it. I am including links that contain information that is useful for discussing masks and virus.

cicely: "...there seem to be people who honestly do not know How Masks Work..."

Exactly! Those new-information-challenged people think a mask always protects the person who is wearing it. Only a silly leftist-commie-deep-state-propaganda conspiracy theory would suggest otherwise.

President Jim Jones must own kool aid shares.

Parents forced grape kool aid on their children knowing full well what they were doing. Those of us of a certain age remember seeing the bloated bodies rotting in the tropical sun.

Are we (the royal we) any different from the believers then? Masks are bad, gubmint out to get ya, but still we follow the preacher man.

Throw the cup away, put on your mask and yell from the mountain top that Putin's orange crate is trying to kill us. Not in the figurative sense but trying (and suceeding) to actually kill us dead.

(In their "defense", they don't understand How Biology Works, either---because of the lack of priority their education gives to all the sciences.

It's that carefully-cultivated ignorance, bundled in with their religious indoctrination, again.)

Not a day goes by that I don't have the same damned conversation about masks on Facebook---while providing citations and fact-checking.

So, so tired of it; but because this is a Red State in the Bible Belt, there seem to be people who honestly do not know How Masks Work---so, it's back to the ramparts.

At least now that masks are mandated in public spaces, there's more compliance, even if it comes with more bitching.

If it reduces our completely ludicrous rates of transmission, I'll settle for it.

Sorry lefty, one of the few mistakes and lapses of judgement on your part.

There is something in that picture that is offensive and should be pixelated in order to preventive projectile vomitting.

(Psst. It's the other one...)
