But to me, fuck Abbott. If Abbott passed declared an order that nobody could touch a fire extinguisher would people just sit in burning chairs? Probably not. So why all of this hoopla about all of the legaleses? Protect the children and deal with the consequences after. This culture of rules, laws, and norms is literally killing people

1. "locally we have one district that wants to be MAGA" In response to Reply # 0
or i should say at least one person in charge is trying to align with abbott and not do mask mandates in order to "not be political or infringe on freedoms" or whatever BS.
the rest of the districts are placing their own mask mandates regardless of abbott.
its a really stupid fight.
id be willing to send my tax dollars to provide transportation for the kids of the parents and teachers that insist on no masks so they can all go to one place together. let the rest of the people try to do things in a safe and logical way.

A teacher at her school's husband had COVID, she still refused to wear a mask at school and was sending her two kids to (a different) school maskless.
Teacher ends up getting COVID (*pikachu shocked face*) and my sister and a few other teachers get an email from the principal that they need to pick up her slack and get a ton of stuff prepared for her students starting that Monday.
Fast-forward to this week, she's still sick and my sister and the other teachers need to take on X students each to cover for the teacher out sick.

Which means more students and no social distancing. Our Dean of Students died from Covid last week. He was 35 and unvaccinated. Our English Teacher's mom died from Covid the week before. Unvaccinated. Shit is crazy. Im begging folks to get vaccinated and mask up.

for some of these people
instead of not acknowledging your being in the hospital has anything to do with you being unmasked and unvaxxed, the narrative will now be how the hospital killed them, because big pharma and fauci and george soros can't get paid off ivermectin
Everyone has a choice Choose not be vaccinated...stay yo punk a$$ home. But what I will never understand These anti folks...going to the hospital when they get sick You said it was hoax the vaccine was some conspiracy etc... Why go to a doctor...like at all...? Total logic faiL.

... on social media about her dad. She hasn't sued yet but I'm sure she will.
She posted "COVID killed my father" on Facebook the other day. This came about a week and a half after she'd posted a couple of IG videos about how he was in the ICU on a ventilator, and that they wouldn't give him the horse paste, the government is out to get everyone, all that same horseshit you're talking about.
Turns out her dad's fucking alive ! Her sister responded to that Facebook post and was like "uhhhh just an FYI, everyone, he's still very much alive in the ICU, you can call X Hospital to confirm ..."
Her responses were a bunch of wild ass, mushroomy shit like "it's all perspective" and "we're on different planes of understanding" lolol.
Hometown group chats have been lit for weeks about this.
