1. My cousin, who lived in Boise, died from Covid.

Three months ago.

[Budi]

13. Maybe they could have just donated the unwanted masks

Of course burning is symbolic, but geez I hate these people right now.

~ for your loss, also

[roamer65]

2. 🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠

I love this kind of behavior.

Keep it up, humans.

3. Note to self: Add Idaho to my do not travel to states.

And in my Prius I have no problem driving through states without stopping.

4. This is insane!

What is wrong with these people?

[Dawgman49]

5. Raising another generation of stupid

[chowder66]

6. The disrespect that these people and governors show to the dead and dying let alone the living

is beyond putrid.

15. Don't forget all of the frontline medical folkswho have to deal with COVID's trauma.

They've been battling it for a full year and moronic events like this will help provide lots more tragedy for them to endure. Those that don't contract the disease outright are getting burned out on dealing with it and these type of stupidity events has to be demoralizing.

19. I was thinking of them in with the living, but to be specific, absolutely the healthcare workers.

7. Humans are still a primitive people.

[ZZenith]

9. That's exactly right.

We’re not far from the days when outright owning other people was considered normal and there’s no guarantee we won’t take a huge step backwards.

Civilization is a fragile thing.

11. The GOP is not much better than Caligula or the Borgias.

Or the Hitler regime.

Yes the evolution of the human species is extremely slow and often goes backward instead of forward.

And certainly the gains are so fragile.

8. We ought to burn their bodies on biers in their front yards when Covid takes them.

[roamer65]

10. Just throw them into a mass grave.

Just like 1918.

[Thekaspervote]

12. Condemning all of us to the possibility of suffering heavy losses from variants

[Glorfindel]

14. How is this not child abuse?

What a pack of fools.

[Journeyman]

16. Look like used masks. Wonderful thing for your kids to play with . . .

[sheshe2]

17. Free-Dumb.

What's next... seat belts and motorcycle helmets, maybe?

[MagickMuffin]

18. BREATHE: Breathe in the air

Breathe, breathe in the air
Don't be afraid to care
Leave but don't leave me
Look around, choose your own ground

For long you live and high you fly
And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
And all your touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be

Run, rabbit run
Dig that hole, forget the sun
And when at last the work is done
Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one

For long you live and high you fly
But only if you ride the tide
And balanced on the biggest wave
You race towards an early grave

[Generic Other]

20. Hopefully they stay out of Washington State

[LetMyPeopleVote]

21. These idiots will also refuse vaccines

22. As infuriating as this is, it is also profoundly sad.

These people are so ignorant and willfully dumb, it boggles the mind how they can not know how far off the path they are. They are willing to risk the lives of their children for the sake of being in denial. They think they are sticking it to those who take this seriously. The sad truth is they are sticking it to themselves and their children. Damn you, tRump. This is your fault, at least in part. You stoked their fears, you misled them and gave them false hopes that it would all just go away. I do not believe in hell but for you I make an exception. I wish with the heat of a thousand burning suns that there is a special hell for you and those like you. You must pay. 🔥🔥🔥

[msongs]

23. this is symbolic of all their other angers - nt

[luckone]

24. imagine what crap stuff those kids are told at home or tomorrow morning if they gather

who would waste their time doing this ?????

[Srkdqltr]

25. How totally useless. A waste of time and effort.

[SamKnause]

26. They are so proud of passing their ignorance on to the children.

They are raising the next batch of the anti science generation.
