    Consider the idiocy of a city in Colorado that is incarcerating people who do not wear a mask. Yet these same leftists claimed that criminals had to be released from incarceration due to the threat of COVID-19. Or consider the idiocy of going into the home of private citizens and confiscating their weapon, their right to keep and bear arms, for no apparent reason, other than they defended their property, safety, and security against the invasion of the “woke” mob -- the useful idiots.

    In Seattle, the useful idiots established their own autonomous zone, driving out law enforcement. The mayor of Seattle described the autonomous zone called CHOP as having a festive atmosphere. Well, that ended once the threats, looting, and murders of two young black men happened, and the mayor ordered police in to reestablish law and order. Now, the useful idiots of Seattle want to recall the mayor.

    Lesson learned -- you cannot appease, acquiesce, or compromise with the mob, America’s useful idiots.

    WATCH:


    What is amazing to me is that we have these young black boys and girls who have joined the useful idiocy. Consider what happened at the University of Wisconsin where the black student union demanded the removal of the statue of President Abraham Lincoln. It appears they believe, wrongly of course, that Lincoln did not do enough for blacks -- what?

    upload_2020-7-16_18-3-13.png
    Hmm, President Lincoln, the first Republican president, lost his life because of his commitment to freedom for Blacks. What more do the useful idiots think Lincoln should have done? Even in his own words, President Lincoln talked about giving the last full measure of devotion, his words from the Gettysburg Address.

    And the absurdity does not end there. Consider, over Memorial Day weekend, useful idiots tore down the statue of Frederick Douglass. Douglass’ story is beyond amazing, and he should be the example that the young black members of the useful idiot club follow.

    Douglass was a freed, self-educated slave who became a leading voice for freedom and abolition of slavery. And do not forget the defacing of the memorial to the 54th Massachusetts Regiment of the Civil War in Boston. They were the first all-Black unit to serve America. They are my predecessors.

    So, why do you tear down statues of Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass, or memorials to Black soldiers? Only one answer, you’re a useful idiot.

    America’s useful idiots want to embrace a philosophy of governance that is the antithesis of the liberty and freedoms that they enjoy. Do not believe me? Well, how about our woke little temper tantrum kids take a trip to Hong Kong. There you will find young people resisting the very ideology that our young people want to live under. How about our useful idiots talk to those Venezuelans who now reside in the United States, like former Miss Venezuela Carmen Maria Montiel, and learn just how awesome socialism truly is.

    upload_2020-7-16_18-3-13.png
    America’s useful idiots are busy searching and destroying anything that they claim is connected to systemic racism. Then why are these little cherubs aligning themselves with the Democrat Party? If we were to do a truly historical analysis of the Democrat Party, you would find the real purveyors of systemic racism in our country. I could go on, but think about the history of a political party that voted against the 13th, 14th, and 15thAmendments. A political party that created our first domestic terrorist organization, the Ku Klux Klan -- oh, yeah, they created the second one also, Antifa.

    The KKK was established to prevent freed Blacks, thanks to Republican efforts, from voting – Republican! Heck, the first Congressional Black Caucus was not Democrat. Jim Crow, segregation, lynching, all the darkest moments in U.S. history are tied to the very political party of which these useful idiots belong.

    upload_2020-7-16_18-3-13.png
    And just a reminder, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 passed because of a Republican Senator, Everett Dirksen. The longest filibuster in U.S. Senate history was done by Senate Democrats seeking to block the civil rights bill from even getting to the Senate floor. And West Virginia Senator, Robert Byrd, was one of them. He was a Grand Wizard in the KKK. He never switched political parties. He was praised by people such as Bill and Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden. Yet Byrd’s statues and memorials have not been targeted for destruction -- why?

    Yes, useful idiots.

    How did we get to this point? Simple, we stopped teaching history and civics. Those subjects were replaced with social studies, which is just the study of leftist ideological agendas. Our education system is no longer based upon learning, educating, it is focused on indoctrinating. Leftists have overtaken our school boards, the most important elected positions in America. Yet, it is the elected position that routinely has the least amount of voter participation.

    Lenin was correct. Western Civilization would topple because of useful idiots advancing the ideals of socialism, communism, and Marxism. And it began in the halls of our academic institutions. The irrational emotionalism that is spreading like cancer across America is quite disconcerting, utterly illogical.

    upload_2020-7-16_18-3-13.png
    The problem is that there are those who believe you can appease the mob. That you can have a rational discussion with a useful idiot. What we can do is take a stand, speak up, and just say no!

    If we fail to say no to America’s useful idiots, then another of Lenin’s quotes will come to fruition -- “the goal of socialism is communism.”

    Disposable medical masks (also known as surgical masks) are loose-fitting devices that were designed to be worn by medical personnel to protect accidental contamination of patient wounds, and to protect the wearer against splashes or sprays of bodily fluids (36). There is limited evidence for their effectiveness in preventing influenza virus transmission either when worn by the infected person for source control or when worn by uninfected persons to reduce exposure. Our systematic review found no significant effect of face masks on transmission of laboratory-confirmed influenza.

    From the CDC May update. I hear that Trump will issue an EO within the next couple of weeks making the wearing of masks non-mandatory, overriding these overreaching governors.

    There is also the theory that Republicans wanted Lincoln out of the way, because it would not have been his intention to punish the South as some R leaders wanted.

    In fact - due to the treatment of the South - some feel is what cause much of the problems for the next century.

    Lincoln,Grant, and Sherman all favored welcoming in the South with no real reprocussions.
    The carpet bagger birthed and fueled the Klan.
    The Klan began as a group of vigilantes whose purpose was to drive out carpet baggers.

    Do you all know that since your eyes allow covid viruses to enter your body, and this is proven too, that the mask mandate is a waste of time. The governors are complaining that people are not following the mask orders and that is why infections are up, but unless your wearing a full face shield, a mask is about useless to prevent infection, its just politics.

    Here this is more like it. Still the air currents can carry the virus around the side, so you really need a full helmet and head covering, total body protection, like an astronaut suit

    Indiana now requires masks for the next 30 days. We don't have N95 masks, just cloth masks of little or no medical value. I am not voting for the re-election of Republican Governor Eric Holcomb.

    The city of Brownsburg, Indiana, said that they would not enforce the mask requirements.

    I think that the masks are too hot. I have been buying disposable masks. The company gave us polyester masks, which are horrible to wear. No one really complies 100% with the demand from Indianapolis (where I work). It ain't human to wear masks for such a low level of threat.

    Dictator (AKA) Gov Cuomo has a Statewide requirement for masks or face covering.
    A store can be fine heavily if they are not enforcing said executive order or the Gov.- I mean dictator
    Problem is many people have problems wearing a tight mask.

    Citizens are encouraged to report non-complying stores to local authorities.

    Hmmm - Now where did hear something like that happening elsewhere

    I like wearing masks because I make faces at people and mouth insults when they stop in the middle of the aisle to have a family gathering and discuss what they want for dinner.

    I do not like other people wearing masks because I think that they may be making faces at me and mouthing insults when I hold them up because I can't remember what kind of tomatoes I needed.

    Unless you have an N99 or N100 mask its like throwing sand at a chain link fence thinking it will stop any from getting through.

    Most masks stop little to no virus.

    the mask panic will probably be gone the day after the election.

    suddenly the virus will evaporate into the stratosphere.

    if Trump is reelected.

    I think it will evaporate regardless, cuz it's no longer needed if Trump is not elected!
    Then again, if his is the case it may STILL be "useful" to attempt to keep churches closed!! The left is so devious and sold out to evil, there's no telling how it will play out once (IF) they get total control. (Lord, have mercy on us!)

    I believe you are correct - if Biden/Globalist is elected, the fraud of pandemic COVID will "require" the mask to keep we the sheeple in control with eyes everywhere including our homes - Bill of Rights having been virtually trashed.
