Marion County Sheriff Billy Woods on Tuesday told his deputies that they are prohibited from wearing masks while on duty just as Florida set a new daily record for COVID-19 fatalities.
In Errol Morrisâs classic âVernon, Floridaâ the sheriff is excited about getting a walkie talkie. As the interview progresses we find out that he only purchased one handset.
Well, the Sheriff is a dope, isnât he. He says he can find and equal number of professionals on both sides of the argument. He should bone up on his definition of a professional.
Wearing a mask helps protecting the community, so it makes you a promoter of communism. And we all know thatâs bad. Besides discouraging selfishness is bad for white supremacy.
âThe fact is, the amount of professionals that give the reason why we should, I can find the exact same amount of professionals that say why we shouldnât."
Not medical ones you canât, Barney.
The ones that you CAN? Those are called âquacks.â
So Iâm clear, his position is that LEOs need to be identifiable at all times when conducting police work? Face, badge, name, body cam, etc? And the public will hold him to this?
The fact is, the amount of professionals that give the reason why we should, I can find the exact same amount of professionals that say why we shouldnât.â
âPlease keep in mind this entire pandemic is fluid and constantly changing the way things are done,â Woods wrote, according to the Ocala Star-Banner. âHowever, my orders will be followed or my actions will be swift to address.â
So, if nothing else, his hard-earned stupidity is consistent. Awesome.
I bet you this dude would be fine with his deputies wearing masks (and no badges/name tags) while curb stomping protesters, though. Yes indeed, Iâm quite sure heâd have zero issue with that.
Absolute power corrupts absolutely. If you post support for BLM the cops tell you donât think of calling 911; youâre on your own. Want to be safe in one of the Countryâs major Covid Hot spots, and youâre on your own there too.
This dweeb personifies what wrong with cops as a class. Focused on what they want for themselves; not the people they are
charged with protecting. There is not a coherent public policy thought in this tough guyâs addled brain.
This sounds to me like he is exposing his department to criminal liability.
Fox News has really ruined this country. It has created a weird cultural relativism in which everyone can claim the ârightâ to any insane opinion if it makes them richer or feel better or letâs them act lazier. Both-siderism has been weaponized into the view that anything is true if you feel it in what Colbert used to call âmy gut.â It is a true capitalist paradise where asking people to be considerate to others and wear a mask gets one laughed or sneered at, even as these same selfish people will expect the community to bail them out when they get into trouble or fall ill.
