Colorado County Refuses to Enforce Lockdowns as Civil Disobedience Spreads Across America

Colorado officials last week announced that several counties had moved into the “red level”—the second-highest measurement on its COVID-19 dial—and would be forced to implement new regulations on restaurants, gyms, and other parts of the economy to combat the virus.

Then something remarkable happened. Weld County, a county in the northern part of the state with a population of roughly a quarter million people, politely said no.

“Instead, county government continues to do what it has done since March, which is promote and encourage residents and business owners to take individual responsibility and make decisions to protect themselves, their families, their community and their businesses,” the Board of Commissioners said in a statement.

Trusting people to make intelligent choices? How Fascistic ... or something.

So does this mean I can stop wearing a mask in the shower?
Is not wearing a mask while I'm sitting on the couch eating Cheetos a form of Civil Disobedience?
My mask is all orange. LOL
Democrats really actually believe that Americans are morons. Next they will tell us that wearing clown shoes and a squirting flower will prevent COVID (the Darth Vader bogeyman of all viruses in the history of mankind).
And you must wearing them at all times, at home, in the car, in the ocean, while you sleep, or the COVID monster under the bed will reach out and grab you.

Yikes!  I think having an orange mask in itself is a form of civil disobedience....orange mask bad!
