    Tiny Dakota County, Nebraska has a large meat packing plant. It also has more Corona virus cases than any other county in the state, not per capita, total cases. A county of 2000 has more cases than Omaha or Lincoln. Local officials mandated masks in public. The state's Republican governor overrode the order and told the county they would have their funding cut off if they required masks.

    So much winning.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Good start. Maybe soon Southern California won't be an epicenter. In the meantime, I'm glad Newsom is ordering them closed.

    Some HS football is going to start Monday. Practices with 25 max kids. Bring in groups of 25 and then smaller groups like 5 at a station. The next few weeks is going to tell us a lot. All these cases will either turn to deaths or people will get over it. Sports for kids is semi-returning. Baseball teams are playing. Tournaments happening, fall gets closer and soccer and football start up. Yikes.

    can an iq test determine one's ignorance? Otherwise your iq idea is essentially worthless as a person can have a high iq and be ignorant and do stupoid things like not wear a mask.

    Do you wear one when out and about in public places?

    NOT WEARING A MASK IS IGNORANCE AND STUPIDITY.

    Find me one person on this planet who hasn't done something stupid in their life.
    Ill be waiting.....


    Just because someone does something stupid, doesn't mean they ARE stupid. Furthermore, the definition of stupid is an opinion based stance. It doesn't mean they are dumb....


    Also, Ignorant means unknowing. Lacking of knowledge of a specific. Not a generalizing of an IQ... which was the whole point from the outset.


    Stop generalizing. Not everyone that doesn't wear a mask is stupid and that can be a quantifiable fact.

    If I don't wear a mask in my office space that is 30 feet from anyone else. Am I stupid? Or just using precautions where they are actually needed?


    So no, not everyone not wearing a mask is stupid. Just using some common sense.

    Further more Id say that anyone wearing a mask in their car by themselves is stupid. WHO the fuck are they protecting?

    So again, not everyone not wearing a mask is stupid.

    Its amazing to me I have to explain all this out... and it will be more amazing when its still not understood.

    Wonder why so many of the ignorants that refuse to wear a mask are on the right side? Do you not understand that a mask helps prevent you as well as others that might be around you from becoming infected? It amazes me that you need this explained to you. You ignore the experts and take advice from an idiot in the White House. Good luck in your quest to not wear a mask but please stay far away from my neighborhood.

    You make quite the assumptions. Showing just how ignorant you are of how I go about my day.

    I wear a mask anywhere i'm close to others. In stores, etc. I'm not gonna wear a mask in a car by myself. If you have a problem with that, I personally don't give a shit.
    I'm not going to go into the details of why. If you don't understand it, your not gonna get it.


    Looks like you ran out of people to argue with so you found my post to argue with for arguments sake. All the while making accusations you have no clue about.... as usual.

    Have a nice day with your assumptions and what not.....

    Another day, same typical BS.

    Cup, I agree common sense to wear a mask but it’s not just those on the right. At my Gym you need a mask to get in but once in all the younger take them off to work out and I know their not all righties.
    It will be interesting to see if they obey the law today when I go.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Not directed at anyone specific (because this can apply to a number of people here, unfortunately) but aside from mask-wearing/not-wearing, dumb is constantly talking to people you can't help get into slap-fights with. Use as your forum IQ test whether you can resist posting at people you can't help get into long, pointless arguments with.

    I never said they were all righties, I said many and it's pretty much been shown where the red states have opened and many of the young people flocked to the beaches and bars and were taped touting trump and putting down mask wearing.
