'Could've had Stacey Abrams': Outrage erupts as 'pro-virus' Georgia governor kills mask mandates [View all]

Published 1 min ago on July 16, 2020

Welcome to Georgia, the state that ranks eighth in population but fourth in new COVID-19 cases.

As the coronavirus spreads across the Peach State, Republican Governor Brian Kemp on Wednesday issued an executive order banning all cities and town from requiring face masks to be worn. Curiously, the directive came just hours after he met with President Donald Trump.

That means at least 15 cities currently requiring face masks now have to rescind those orders.

Face masks have proven to slow the spread of the deadly coronavirus, which is unchecked in the United States, but under control in many other countries across the globe.

So what does the two major companies or entities that operate at the Hartsfield International Airport, UPS and Delta think of this shit show by Kemp ....................after all UPS and Delta gave money to elect this asshole.......and Hartsfield is run by the FAA and we the taxpayers pay that bill along with the airlines and the passengers..........I for one will not fly into that airport...............
