Leaning into a Left Hook. Among other things, the story details a mask ordinance in Montgomery, AL. Blacks are overwhelmingly dying there, but the whites on the council voted to preserve liberty and oppose a mask ordinance.
And yes, one of the whites asked if people get poisoned from wearing masks.
According to the article, the hospitals are full in Montgomery. When Italian hospitals filled up, the death rate skyrocketed to 10%. Is that what we want?
Many of these states have mandatory evacuation laws for hurricanes. The authorities can literally force them out of their home but cannot make them where masks out in public? Seriously, this is the hill some conservatives choose to die on?
Of course not, as the article makes clear, it is the hill they choose to let blacks die on.
