Georgia governor orders mayors to let people spread virus if they want to

Gov. Brian Kemp's ban comes as Georgia is seeing a spike of coronavirus cases, like many other states in the South.

Public health experts say masks are one of the most effective tools for stopping the spread of the coronavirus — which has spiraled out of control in a large swath of the United States.

But Georgia's GOP Gov. Brian Kemp has banned cities and counties from issuing mask mandates, claiming such orders are "a bridge too far," the Atlanta Journal Constitution reported.

Republicans had been reluctant since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic to order the use of masks in public.

Yet a number of mask-skeptical GOP leaders have reversed course in recent days, as cases of the coronavirus have skyrocketed.

So this libertarian piss ant, with that libertarian mind set, is now the official executioner of anyone and everyone that goes through that state........it is now time to "boycott" the state................sorry to all the sensible people in the state but enough is enough................until you go into the streets and demand this assholes resignation in your state now, or get a petition up and recall him, he is not fit to run a toilet bowl, and it is a death trap waiting to happen..............it is unsafe..................

STUPIDITY rules in much of the South..

Brian Kemp will be burying a lot of Georgians, as will Ron DeSantis, and the rest of the Governors in states where COVID is rising.

3. When governors are making blanket orders for their states, Republicans complain

"You're overstepping your authoritah! Local government knows best! Communism!" Or what-the-fuck ever. Okay, so local governments in Georgia want to take public health measures, and here's the Republican governor overruling local control and forcing everyone back to the most minimal measures. Daddy Kemp knows best, and Republicans voice full-throated approval (while they haven't yet been infected).

This is lethal hypocrisy, as far too many people in Georgia are going to find out.
