“I’m furious, this is bullshit,” Bundy filmed one woman telling him. “These are kids, if you can’t just keep your mouth shut, stay home.”

“I don’t give two shits what you have to say, you’ve ruined it for everybody!” the woman added, as Bundy tried to explain his position.

This woman and Dr. Phillips (the attending at Walter Reed who said Trump’s one man parade was dangerous and stupid) are my heroes for the day.

Ignorant bumpkins - how is it possible that these kind of people ever managed to be taken seriously by anyone? Covid-Trump’s great feat has been to unite all the ignorant bumpkins into a voting block. Then the obscenely wealthy saw their opportunity and hitched their wagon’s to them. And they’ve been such obedient plow horses ever since and are so dumb they have no idea.

“When I was standing there and my family was standing there, I honestly could imagine, accurately I believe, what a Jewish person felt in the 30s in Germany,” he said.

The very word “idiot” hangs its head in shame at its complete inadequacy to describe this singularity of cluelessness.

Seems like a few of these folks need to go tour Birkenau and Auschwitz in the middle of the winter, and see if they still feel wearing a mask is comparable.

Idiot. You are not ‘black’ or ‘jewish’ or discriminated against. You are a stupid fool that want MORE MORE MORE entitlement and press. Nice job screwing over your son for your own selfish BS.

They live in a sea of people around them who give them free passes on all counts. Being lunatics, unable to be decent citizens, thwarting science and reason, refusing for decades to give an inch to science and facts, and bloviating about freedom and states rights. You gotta be told to sit down and shut up, by decent folks. By common sense folks. But first…you gotta have some decent and common sense folks around. Sorely lacking.

  • Hung by piano wire from a meat hook?
  • Gang raped and shot?
  • Gassed to death with your entire family?
  • Boiled into soap?

Which of those particular experiences equates to “being politely asked to wear a mask”?

You think they would have some sort of mechanism for removing people from a game. What if someone drunk showed up and started throwing shit on the field? What if someone started groping cheerleaders or players? What if someone just took their clothes off and ran up and down the sidelines?

Oh well. Cancel the game. Should be a short Super Bowl this year. Or any year, I guess.

From my own point of view…wearing a mask in public is being a good neighbor. As in looking out for the other guy. Apparently Ammon thinks only of himself. How Christian of him.
