Two siblings were banned from a charter school in California after they refused to wear masks because of religion reasons, as the whole campus was placed on lockdown.

Victoria and Drew Nelson, of Temecula, were forced to leave school grounds on their first and last day of class at Springs Charter School.

Administrators said the students were asked to either comply to wear the mask or leave their classrooms.

School resource officers were called when Victoria refused to leave the classroom. 'I need you to stand up or we will have to physically remove you from the classroom,' said the principal to her


Surprised the law enforcement officer did not call for backup, SWAT team, or air support.

They should argue that the masks cause cancer.
Every product in CA says that...

You are free to protest as long as it is government approved protest.
Then you can burn,loot and sometimes even kill.

The kids were entirely right. Masks. Do. Not. Work.

They are a fine badge to identify the “compliant”, but as any kind of “preventative” to reduce the spread of the COVID-19 Wuhan virus, they are a complete failure. No studies exist, anywhere that demonstrates the efficacy of masks in preventing the spread of just about ANY virus, or of most bacteria, all of which are smaller than the weave or felting of any cloth or fiber porous enough for a person to inhale a breath through. Worse, by far, is the fact that the exhalation of “spent” breath, which has an ever-increasing content of carbon dioxide AND moisture-borne pathogenic microorganisms, keeping these exhaled gas and bacteria in close contact with the face, mouth, nose and skin surface, and even escaping up into the eyes, compounds the potential for a number of OTHER pathogens to take up an infection route to the victim of this hoax.

On 27 April, 2021 the CDC admitted having no studies showing masks are effective at stopping the spread of Covid.

Regrettably the government does have their protesters, rioters, looters and murderers. It is the new normal

What is the religious reason for not wearing a mask?

Shouldn’t Science be the ultimate defense of this use of force on children to wear an unhealthy medical device that has no scientific value that is being falsely claimed??

“What is the religious reason for not wearing a mask?”

As a Christian Scientist you could argue the mask is interfering with their belief that God alone is enough to take care of all their medical needs.

The kids were entirely right. Masks. Do. Not. Work.

Completely and demonstrably true ... as far as transmission of a respiratory virus -- any respiratory virus. But masks have been effective far beyond the expectations of the Democrat/Communist/Left in maintaining the public hysteria throughout America. Masks are a constant, highly effective, powerful visual reminder that America is sick ... and that Americans must -- simply must -- obey every mandate and every demand made not only by politicians and by a nationwide gaggle of unelected bureaucrats and "medical experts,".Americans must obey every demand -- no matter how unreasonable or inane -- by any stranger on the street to assuage whatever phobia they suffer.

Well, I've had enough of strangers telling me I have to do something to make them feel better, and I'm not doing it anymore ... no more ... not for some time ... and I can't tell you how good that makes me feel to say "No" ... how blissfully liberating to reject an attempt at control.

The proper response to "You have to wear a mask in here!" and "You must be vaccinated!" is no longer "Masks don't work" or "I'm not sick" or "I can't breathe when I wear a mask" or "I'm not against vaccines, I just don't think I need any of these." Rationality and reasoned argument with ignorant, still-irrationally fearful (arguably, hysterical) people who consider obedience as the primary reason for living no longer works.

No, the proper response, the only response is now: "F*ck you!"

Actually, masks work very, very, well:

It’s all about teaching COMPLIANCE….
...not “following the science”:

Masks are:

1) a sign of submission, subversion and subjugation
2) mandated in order to dehumanize
3) virtue signaling devices
4) meant to provide constant reinforcement of fear
5) used to destroy community, friends and family normal communication
6) implemented to create isolation, confusion, anxiety, destroy human connectivity, trust and interactions
7) mandated to exacerbate illness
8) intended to aid in the abandonment of the belief and reliance on our immune systems
9) intended to refute integrous science
10) signal to positions of power that you are willing to give up all of your rights and freedoms based on anything they say, even if it is a BIG FAT LIE!
