They are outdoors, right? Germs gonna hover round their heads like a bowl of Quaker oatmeal?
BaHhhhh...
Epic blowback worked, but you do have to wonder what sort of low-grade sawdust Ryan McCarthy has between his ears to even dream up a directive like prohibiting laying wreaths in a cemetery because of Covid.
I wasn’t under the impression that HE was the one who issued the original cancellation order.
Fine people in Maine whom I trained when I lived there. The volunteers and contributors are all patriots.They have opened a new national cemetery there and have an outdoor theater with events free to Veterans. Contribute if you can.
HE NEEDS TO BE FIRED.TODAY...what a dumbass to cancer. The WREATHS!!.
Just another Government mistake, no big deal. Like the new ballots found, or the miscounts, no big deal.
It’s outdoors and the honorees are already dead!
*Rolleyes*
Well, cancel the Wreath Ceremony
Are you willing to cancel those who protect The Tomb?
I don’t believe he had anything to do with canceling the event . It was some woman namedKaren(seriously).
Good! I hope my message, to him, helped.
Absurd decision, in the first place.
At Arlington National Cemetery there is a stupidly long TSA-like process to actually get into the cemetery. If they are going to try to send wreaths through a scanner it may take a bit.
Good! People will be OUTSIDE and probably wearing masks. There is no danger.
As a country we must stop with the Covid paranoia. This thing is here to stay.
Good choice.
Then the person who made the decision needs to be named. First and
Last name.
i believe Trump reversed it for him
