Wanna talk about a ratio, this tweet has over 116K likes, whereas Jenny's original tweet is just a little over 7K.

So there is an almost zero chance that this tweet has not yet come to her attention. If she has responded to it, I have yet to find it.

I love how she says the teacher "masked her", as if it were a verb, or otherwise something one does to something else. He "Gave her a mask. She put it on".

Further, apparently this somehow harmed the girl in some unspecified way, that is never fully apparent? You're whining and causing a stink, because he ... gave her a mask? Oh no the horror! Giving her a mask caused ... something? to happen!?

If it's aLwAyS "mental illness" - why don't our gunnuts support free mental healthcare?  Stop getting your guns a bad name, and get all those mentally ill people treated before they lash out with a Gun.

Free Medical (Physical, Mental, and Dental) - and you catch the wouldbe shooters before they ever fire a shot.  See, now your guns aren't to blame - and won't be in the news every night.

This is a compromise for L and R and everyone should be good... right?

After the pandemic, this should absolutely be a required public school protocol.

If you child shows up hacking and wheezing there are 2 choices. 1) You get your ass to the school and pick them up and keep them home until they are cleared by doctor, or 2) they wear a mask while at school until cleared by a doctor.

I've lived in Texas for twenty years. I empathize with her, but she's just wrong. Outside of the four big metros, Texas is dark red, even in the suburbs of said metros.

Statewide elections are not gerrymandered. He posted that to purely jack the thread. And you telling anyone to take a chill pill is hilarious.

*Sigh*

OK, before Fark embarasses itself further, I'm stepping in. "Mask" IS a verb:

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/mask

mask
2 of 2
verb
masked; masking; masks
transitive verb


:to cover (the face or part of the face) with or as if with a mask
The low hood masked her eyes.
The leader masked his face with a scarf, her mother says, but she recognized the raspy voice of their neighbor ...-National Geographic

We're just going to pretend this never happened, and for Fark's sake quit smarting that post. Fark all you people for making me defend some rando antivaxxer, but you were wandering into some severely r/confidentlyincorrect territory there.

We do blame all those things. But we also point out that the common denominator to all these gun massacres is that a highly disturbed person had zero difficulty in gaining access to automatic weapons.

It's a good troll, but I have to say it: he really doesn't.

First, we're not all tankies. Second, in no way was "any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated"meant to imply that there should unlimited access to any weapons under any situation. Even in Soviet Tankiestan, they were limited to 1 pistol or rifle, and it was registered.
