Savannah Mayor Johnson To Mandate Face Coverings In Public | Andrea Mitchell | MSNBC
People are dying. Thank you Mayor.✌❤
Well said Sheila!
Who’s dying? No one knows anyone that has this virus
David Gainey
Are you living underground ?
At least someone in the US has a brain, concern for people and a bit of humility in the face of nature
Thankyou Mark.
You sided against nature the moment you gave your soul to lucifer, brimstone is your destiny, shitwalker
@Pigg Licker is that the same as giving your soul to Trump!
Pigg Licker nice to see such a considered and thoughtful response .., thanks for your input
The brain is in the White House, you are causing a Marxist takeover. You are too stupid to put everything together. All this crap is directly out of Saul Alinsky…look it up!
A couple months too late, did you hear about the pandemic that hit the US months ago?
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand he just lost reelection.
@Magister you’ll believe what you believe till the end. At this point even you know that there is certain itch in the back of your mind about our truthful words. Something that chills you to the bone. You’ll see. 🙂
@Alfred Basurto the only thing I’ll be seeing is 4 more years. Have fun being lied too.
@Magister LMFAO you’re so funny but even more stupid! Hahahahaha!
Doubt it. The people who refuse might not be around to vote him out…
I doubt that.
You don’t wear a mask just for yourself. You do it to protect others. Like everyone agreeing at adhere to speed limits on the road. If you don’t, you’re basically saying that you’re too selfish to care about saving other people’s lives.
Maybe we’ll evolve to breathe rectally if we wear the mask long enough
@The Epstein Diaries was that supposed to be funny or are you making a comment about your breath under the mask?
Horice Black humans require oxygen and it’s only natural that we would adapt when deprived of it. Maybe we’ll develop gills and crawl back into the ocean. Life finds a way
@The Epstein Diaries stop being such a whiner and act like an adult. Wear a mask when in public spaces, social distance outdoors and wear a mask when you can’t social distance. That’s not to much to ask to save lives, your and others! This crap will go away some day and then you can go back to your normal life like the rest of us will. Stop being so weak and acting like a crybaby!
*Lest we forget, the 120,000+ US souls dead from COVID-19… that ALL these people were alive 4 months ago. US death-toll is erroneous & many deaths are unrecorded… yet, this number represents people who have passed away in the past 16 weeks.* 🙏🙏🏾
I love face masks,democrats are pretty awesome
Youre a pathetic beast system slave facing brimstone eternal
Wearing a mask could save someone’s life and possibly your own
@The Epstein Diaries Nope.
https://youtu.be/XenqHLyudeY Infectious disease specialist: Covid-19 is weakening and a vaccine is likely not necessary.
Brian Nave I’ll still play it safe my friend. I only gamble with my money not my life. I don’t know about you but I plan to be around when this all ends.
boyscout 72 I just thought it was good information that hopefully is what may be happening, and after all there is no vaccine available now or in the near future.
Brian Nave appreciated!! Since this started I’m resigned to be in this for the long term. I want normalcy but I’m of the mind of hope for the best, prepare for the worst. Again good info just not ready to relax just yet.
What a beautiful city. Thanks for doing the right thing. I used to visit Savannah, Georgia. Gorgeous place.
Of course we know Kemp won’t do the entire State even with cases going up because Trump will make fun of him again on Twitter..
*”A BLACK”!;)
I am really proud of these mayors in R states who are making decisions to protect their constituents.
Nice to see someone take affirmative progressive action. RESPECT to Mayor Johnson.
However, lack of progress in these virus filled days isn’t just irresponsible, it is costing people their lives.
The Federal government led by, let’s face it, a TOTALLY INEFFECTIVE MORON, is delinquent in it’s duty to protect it’s citizens!
I truly feel sorry for the American people and wish you had the option of removing the “president” and his enablers from office immediately!
“People went to the polls and voted during World War I. They went to the polls and voted during World War II. We can safely go to the polls and vote during Covid-19.”
— Trump … Wait. WWI and WWII were contagious?
Kemp… 🤣🤣🦠 Howdyho!
Finally someone stood up to the insane GOP that supports a governor who is as lethal as Trump to citizens
Smart Mayor!!
👏👏
Here comes the automatic weapon parade. “We don’t want to wear masks.”
Be safe!
