People were already ignoring his order the first time and he didn’t do anything. Miami, Key West, etc. They literally defied his EO without consequences.
I love DeSantis, I am here because of him, but the time of just posturing is over. He must firmly state ANY AND ALL covid measures are a violation of civil liberties, and violation of these liberators will result in PRISON for any localities that create or enforce them.
That's not true at all! He is suspending fines and measures local government (mayors) are taking to enforce covid measures. As such, he is leaving it up to the people to take back their freedoms.
We need to organize better if this matters to us. Everyone complains that the leftists don't want to think about their choices, but the conservatives don't want to sacrifice anything or work to regain essential freedoms.
What singular part isn’t true? The part where Miami and Key West localities had issued covid mandates to fine people for not wearing masks AFTER he already issued this EO, which is a move in complete and total defiance of him?
How is that single point not true? Because it is true, he issued the EO, they defied him, he did nothing.
I stand up everyday to this bullshit by never wearing a mask. But you can’t put the entire responsibility on the exploited. That’s like having police in a community and then deliberately having the police sit at a table eating donuts as they watch people get raped on the side of the road while they with a full mouth say “should take care of yourself bruh!” and then the people scream out “I tried. I even fought back but there were 20 rapists and only me. They over powered me!” and them the cops saying “yeah...that sucks. Here I’ll tell them they should stop. Rapists you should probably stop!” Them the rapists ignore the cops and keep raping and the cop shrugs and goes “well I tried” and grabs another donut.
You're introducing information into the argument now that wasn't there before. The part that isn't true is that he's doing nothing. I live under Whitmer, and believe me, you have it better.
That wasn’t there before? He first issued this EO a long ago. Just within the last 2 weeks Miami and Key West passed these unconstitutional mandates WHILE his EO was already in effect. You’re welcome to research it if you think I’m just making shit up for no reason.
And because they have already openly defied him and his response is to just say “Hey...b-b-but I made an EO?????” Is doing nothing.
Issuing the EO at first was NOT doing nothing. That WAS something. And I applauded him for it. But now that they have defied him he needs to do something different. He needs to ENFORCE it.
Seriously though, read the article and we can see the absolute difference btw D and R.
Mayor of St. Petersburg advocates for a statewide mask mandate as a baseline so that discerning what ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS are required will be easier.
Desantis advocates for a constructive partnership with the people of Florida and a move away from penalizing for not distancing.
I never wear a mask but the mandates still need to end. Even as a non mask wearer we are still affected because the Rona Fog still looms large over everything and the mask mandates help reinforce that. It is what keeps places closed, or operating differently.
When the masks goes is the only time things will go back to normal, and sadly most people don’t want to be rebels. But because most people are willing and scared sheep doesn’t excuse the localities who wish to exploit that and take advantage of them.
You're correct. The mandates are an encroachment on our civil liberties and a violation of the Consitiution. Overstep is only warranted when the violation is worth reduction in liberty. But as we have seen the past 8/9 months it clearly is not.
It creates an atmosphere of uncertainty and fear ripe for the rise of communism as we hand OUR RIGHTS to the government. There are even sheep who are duped into believing these rights are PRIVILEGES because the government withheld them for so long. (Thank God they allowed me to visit my dying granny!)
Pathetic. It's both the government's fault for overstepping and OUR FAULT for allowing this to happen. If we all resisted these mandates would be useless. The founding fathers are rolling in their graves.
I live in FL.
At least where I'm located, the only place I've ever been refused service for not wearing a mask was at Subway.
Currently, more and more people are foregoing the mask. In big box stores and sit down restaurants you will not be harassed for your lack of mask.
I live on the space coast and if employees at bars, restaurants, stores, etc. weren't wearing masks, you wouldn't even know that anything was different tbh. I was even in Orlando (blue area) last week and same thing. Bars and restaurants were slammed.
At least in my area, it seems things are returning to a sense of normalcy. Unfortunately, i feel we will probably have retards wearing mask wherever they go for the next couple of years just to virtue signal.
Groceries stores should've loosened up with mask mandates ever since some guy brandished a firearm at a Wal-Mart "Health Ambassador" for refusing his entry. This was the first week of most businesses requiring enforcement back in July.
Wal-Mart has a policy of allowing customers in regardless of having a mask or not because they don't want to lose customers. All youd have to do is resist a couple times and they should let you through. I know they don't give me trouble for it anymore like they used to. (It was a headache. If it was a "good day" I would buy more than usual)
I understand your reasoning, best not let your kids see you argue or have them be targetted.
But they do remember and realize what is going on around them during that time and you not wearing a mask would make an imprint on them even if they can't vocalize it.
I don't mind what you choose to do (and you shouldn't care either, I'm just some person on the internet), kids come first.
The pandemic ends when the people say it does. May God bless Governor Desantis and all of those that stand against the tyranny.

Until he does that he is doing literally nothing.
That's not true at all! He is suspending fines and measures local government (mayors) are taking to enforce covid measures. As such, he is leaving it up to the people to take back their freedoms.

So did they fine people?

I'm not in your state. Thank you for filling me in with further details!
I'm pretty sure he's not doing that to avoid stepping on the Mouse's toes.
This man has saved the Sunshine State!!!!
Long live Ronnie D!

Liberty or Tyranny.
This man is a lion! Wish I still lived in FL and not treasonous GA!
Why not just end the state of emergency altogether?
Have you tried going in without a mask anyway? What kinds of stores are you referring to? Groceries stores should allow you in at the very least.
I never wear a mask but the mandates still need to end. Even as a non mask wearer we are still affected because the Rona Fog still looms large over everything and the mask mandates help reinforce that. It is what keeps places closed, or operating differently.

End the violation of civil liberties!

I was just refused service at a restaurant on Wednesday. I was also refused service at a 7/11. Most other places have taken my "no" as an answer.

Wow. And I used to think Texas had the best governor.
Then I find out he’s deeeeeeeeeeeep state.
Slapping his dick in those plandemic motherfuckers’ faces!
He needs to crack down on the local committee members who enforce masks rules til April 2021.

DeSantis I hope you lurk here! You're the MAN. Contact your mayors, Florida Pedes!
I LOVE MY GOVERNOR
Said it before and I'll say it again, he needs to run in 2024.
I think I'd potentially vote for him, depending on who he is running against.
Thank GOD I moved to FL from KY. Andy Beshear is a clown.
Thats my GOVNA!!!
This Thanksgiving I'm thankful for my Governor, Ron DeSantis.
He can come be our Governor is Georgia once he gets his fill of Florida
If only California had leaders like this instead of commie scum.
FLORIDA MAN SAVES THE REPUBLIC
