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.
I wasn't aware of the above. One more reason I like DeSantis.
She looks like Rep. Cheney.
So, let her throw all those maskless cardboard people in jail!! It would make a great picture. :)
Look at him....the runt is so full of himself.
Here’s a link from NPR back in October of last year describing the order from DeSantis...
Thanks.
I seem to remember Florida went maskless last summer. Did that change?
“Exactly how much Time will this require for police and DA’s?”
They all have tons of time now that laws no longer apply to “teens” or other domestic terrorists that can burn, loot and murder with impunity as long as they do not inconvenience democrat politicians. Crime rate went to zero when criminals by law are exempt from crime
Regarding lockdowns…
State constitutions also need to be amended to put time limits on lockdowns.
State constitutions also need to be amended to make state health and environmental protection officials elected by popular vote.
Constitutionally time-limited lockdowns need to automatically trigger special recall elections for governors, mayors and disaster officials who order lockdowns, also state lawmakers.
Finally, constitutions need to require people planning to run for state and local offices to escrow a refundable "recall deposit" before becoming a candidate, the deposit fully paying in advance for their possible recall elections if they are elected, amounts determined by law.
Insights welcome.
Tampa Democrat Mayor Jane Castor needs to be arrested and charged for threatening false and malicious prosecution.
Florida is generally a great place to live. But, we’ve got some municipal leaders in a handful of cities that are insufferable. This idiot is at the top of the list, IMO.
Typical hypocrite.
If you are not a “sanctuary city” can you refuse sanctuary to a 5 time deported rapist illegal?
Like to see him show up in his MAGA hat.

This is the thrill to punish people that drives so many in power.
She looks like another Liberal ‘Skank-Athon’ contestant!
Typical democrat.
Just love to lord it over the little people who elected her to represent them, not to harass and imprison them.
Target the enforcers. Start stacking cop bodies if they are going to do things like this.
