Stop what? I was just commenting what I'm seeing down here in Atlanta and my experience during visits to hospitals and medical offices. Like I mentioned, I've been to hospitals many times last week and this week. And I've another specialist appointment this week as well. I've taken my wife, daughter, mom. and me to various medical checkups and procedures. And every time and every visit, the rules are crystal clear. Everyone need masks to enter and must remain masked up while inside the hospitals and medical buildings. No exception. And people follow it from what I've seen. CDC never lifted mask requirement for hospitals, mass transit, and airports. So I don't know why you think I must be lying or something. I was just expressing my surprise Geekbabe has to deal with people refusing to use mask inside the hospital. We don't have any vaccine card exemptions here. It doesn't matter if your vaccinated or not at hospital setting. You have to wear a mask. It sounds like you guys can use vaccine card at hospital which is ridiculous, IMO. It would be similar to allowing vaccinated people not to wear mask at airport and airplanes. It's just not done right now. So why are they doing that up North in hospitals? That sounds like dumb idea and begging for hostile mask confrontation like Geekbabe is describing having to do at her job.
Seriously, lot of you guys have some fucked up impressions of the South. Based on what I've read here, I know most of you don't leave your house and basically never travel outside your city, let alone state. Maybe you guys are watching too many TV shows or movies, CNN, MSNBC trash and that's giving you lot of false impressions. I can't explain it because not only is it sad, it's pretty comical as well. At first, I thought people can't be this gullible and dumb but now I realize it's not an act and people are really that dumb and gullible. When I went to college at Northwestern and lived near Chicago for 4 years, people used to joke and tease me about growing up in Georgia. It was all in good fun, and I teased them back. But there was always mutual respect, and we all learned from our interactions. I feel like there's no learning here; everyday I feel dumber for coming here.
Geekbabe, I'm sorry about my off topic response here. It seems some people get trigged at anything I say that might disagree with their hilariously narrow and bigoted/racist view of the world. I might always be right, but I generally try to keep it respectful. And if I'm wrong, I'm not afraid to say I was wrong and apologize. It's ok to wrong. We're not perfect. But majority of you can't say or admit it which is sad. This will be my last reply In this thread.
