With their recent Super Bowl win, residents of Tampa, Florida, have cause to celebrate right now. But not everyone.
“I’m proud to say that the majority of individuals that I saw out and about enjoying the festivities…were complying,” Mayor Jane Castor, a Democrat, told reporters at a press conference on Monday, referring to the mask directive she put in place before Sunday’s big event. “But those few bad actors will be identified, and the Tampa Police Department will handle it.”
Video below:
Castor’s executive order, which is in effect from January 28 to February 13, notes that “every person working, living, visiting, or doing business in the City of Tampa shall wear a face covering at any outdoor location located within (i) an Event Zone or (ii) an Entertainment District,” which encompass places where people were more likely to gather for sports-related fun.
But while she makes laws for others a photo of her surface where she is maskless during a hockey game while people around her are wearing masks.

It’s ok, she at a hockey game, not the Super Bowl. All smart people (Democrats) know you can’t transmit covid sitting indoors next to the ice.
The irony got bigger when today the mayor appeared to have a change of heart, announcing a celebration event later this week for the Tampa team.
‘We can’t have a historic event of this significance in our community and not celebrate it,’ Castor said. ‘We definitely have to celebrate this momentous occasion.’
It’s not clear what this celebration would look like, as Castor didn’t provide any further details. Typically, a sports team would have a parade in their city after winning a title.
‘Overall, I’m happy with the compliance,’ Castor said about COVID-19 restrictions being followed – almost a direct contrast to what she said earlier.
In any case, the first person to be arrested, identified.
The mayor, the police, and her prosecutors and local courts have nothing better to do?
You have to remember the laws do not apply to the lawmakers.
Right, what’s the crime rate there?
“Bad actors.” Drama queen much?
No surprise! None at all!
Democrats motto:
“Rules for thee, but not for ME!!!”
The mayor, the police, and her prosecutors and local courts have nothing better to do?

What could be better than to impose our values upon society?
Absoulutely nothing!
Do we have nothing better to do? How could you even ask such a question?
(Sorry...I had to play the indignant Leftist for a moment.)
Exactly how much Time will this require for police and DA’s?
Does this take priority over real crimes like robbery , murder, and rape?
If they have photos of he with no mask then that will be a great defense and also one that will apply to her Executive Orders and the orders of the State.
As usual you have the a Imbecilic Moron here.
The rulers rule and the ruled comply with the rules. It’s really very simple and straightforward.
Do as I say, not as I do.
The Mayor of Tampa can threaten all she wants, but Governor DeSantis several months ago issued an order barring any municipal government from enforcing any mask mandate...
They can have mandates all they want but no one can be arrested or fined for not wearing one...
Businesses can refuse service to people for not wearing a mask but no government can punish people...
So good luck to the Mayor Tampa, she’s just grandstanding...
Did the mayor or her family go? Maybe they have butt hurt over not getting invited or too much fear to go?
If I am not wearing a mask..do they still have to bake me a cake?
Which is odd because I am at a bicycle repair shop.
Here’s a link to an article from NPR describing the order barring enforcing mask mandates from Ron Destantis...
The mayor’s middle name must be “Buzzkill.”
I’m sure Governor DeSantis will be placing a call to the mayor.
I hope Brady turns down any invite to the White House.
Businesses have always had the leeway to refuse service to people for various things...
At least here in Florida, it’s common to see signs on restaurants that say, “ No Shoes, No Service”, etc....
Commies never ever have to say they are sorry
