Maryland Governor Larry Hogan (R) says Americans have ‘no constitutional right’ to refuse wearing a mask during the COVID-19 pandemic, likening it to refusing to wear a seat belt or follow the speed limit.
“It’s sort of like saying I have a constitutional right to drive drunk, I have a constitutional right to not wear a seat belt, or to yell ‘fire’ in a crowded movie theater, or to not follow the speed limit,” said Hogan during a coronavirus press briefing reported by the Washington Times.
“We’re talking about a quarter of a million people dying already — more than the Korean War, the Gulf War, and the Vietnam War added together,” he continued, adding “Which part don’t you understand? You wear the mask. There’s no constitutional right to walk around without a mask. We did it in 1918, I don’t know why we can’t do it now.“
I have no problem with wearing a mask but a mandate is just marxist BS. Therefore hogan is unconstitutional. Rino marxist pigs to the back of the room. With the dems anifta, and BLM were you belong. Ground into the dirt.
Wearing mask in stores because people do not practice safe distance is one thing but I will not wear one in my car or in an open area space., ie parking lots etc.
These rogue Politians need to quit scaring people into submission. They don’t even obey their own mandates.
Called control of the people. Same thing NAZI Germany under Adolph Hitler, Russia under Stalin and Italy under Mussolini during WWI and WWII.
Better known as COMMUNISM / SOCIALISM for the manipulating Politians.
Prime example of history repeating itself. Prime example of indoctrination by the education / higher learning system. Another example of the higher learning degrees is a bunch of BS, Bu– Sh– paperwork. People need to know their history
Hogan is an idiot because driving is on the honor system including going the speed limit. So if he is comparing the two then wearing a mask is also optional and on the honor system.
When driving home in the middle of the night, on more than one occasion have not sat at an empty red light. People speed all the time and no one knows what a turn signal is. So according to Hogan I can use the same strategy when it comes to wearing a mask
Hogan is a clown and should live in fear of the people
neither does the constitution require me to wear a mask. hogan is a pos. and needs to be strung up along with all the other communists. we fought a war because of one fool issuing edits all the time. this is why we have a legislature that is supposed to make our laws. not one man! piss off fatboy!
Read the disclaimer on the box, people. These masks will NOT protect you from COVID-19 or any other diseases or even drywall dust. It literally says that right on the box. The State legislature has NOT passed any law requiring wearing a mask, so no law exists. A virus that went around the world in a month and a half eleven months ago has been through your body. You either got sick or you didn’t. It has passed through so many American antibodies it’s no longer the disease it once was and is way less dangerous now. Counting every death as a Covid death of course will up the count of those deaths, removing the possibility of dying of a 100 mph motorcycle crash! What number is NOT on the CDC’s website anymore? The CURRENT number of TOTAL U.S. deaths. Even the death clock is running every day on projections based on last year’s numbers. Look at what they’re NOT telling us for the truth.
You keep posting this, and everyone time someone has to remind you, the mask isn’t about protecting YOU from any disease, it’s to keep you from potentially spreading disease to OTHERS.
12:53 If it stops the spread why are we having a “surge”?
