​Ron DeSantis Teases Bans on Coronavirus Vaccination, Mask Mandates
Breitbart ^ | February 27, 2023 | Hannah Bleau

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) on Monday teased a permanent ban on coronavirus mandates — including vaccinations and masking — which he said the legislature will address in the upcoming legislative session.

Speaking during a press conference focusing on ending Disney’s self-governing status, DeSantis brought up the way the organization handled the Chinese coronavirus pandemic, including forcing young children to wear masks.

“And then as we got into 2021, you know, a lot of these Disney employees would come — they’d just see me at like Wawa or something and say, ‘Hey, I’m gonna lose my job at Disney because of the vax … mandates for COVID,’ and you know, that was not something that we thought was acceptable in the state of Florida,” he said, noting that they called a special session of the legislature and to provide legislation to “say you can’t lose your job based on not taking the shot,” he said to applause.

“And we did that not just for Disney but for everybody” including children and law enforcement, he said. However, DeSantis said while they were able to save jobs, many unvaccinated employees were still treated differently.

“They would treat them differently if they didn’t do the shot — a shot that doesn’t prevent you from getting infected or spreading it anyways,” he noted.

Looks like there may be a movement starting across America...

If you want a mask, be feel free to wear that ineffective device. Do not mandate I wear it.

Odd occurrence in Galveston. I observed a young and healthy lady biking down the seawall. It was in bright sunlight and a sea breeze. She had a mask on. Her risk was zero.

The real question is why this young lady thought she should have a mask?

Perfectly timed to appeal to the easily manipulated “Conservatives”. People thought the CNN/MSNBC/ABC watchers wre a brain dead cult on the left, but the Deep Staters took a page from that play book and applied it to old Ron with the help of FOX NEWS a viola, the new 2024 Pres. candidate. Suckers.

DeSantis has all of my wokeist Leftist riled up.

On a non politcal blog that has a ton of comments, the make up is 90 % Leftist. It’s a Marland and Orioles website.

There were 7 posts mocking DeSantis. I posted 1 in defense of him and the site blasted off with 35 posts in response.

Big Triggered.

Researchers: City-wide vaccine mandates did nothing to stop the spread of COVID-19

DeSantis is right.

She probably watches too much television…

Seriously, I think a lot of people were left permanently damaged by the constant drumbeat of fear, fear, fear. And when that was reinforced by government orders and they were also kept isolated and without a voice of sanity (because of the censorship of alternative views and information) , there was no hope for them.

In FLorida the mask wearers are mostly black people and young white women. They’re probably the two groups that trust the government most and feel protected by it, and that’s how they’re expressing it.

Good on him - if he does it...others have beat him to this punch.

If he keeps it up, and I last that long, I’ll support him on 2028 and/or 2032

The silence from the Only Trumpers on this thread is loud.
