    Nope. I took umbrage with the post where you accused me of something I never said. You have your facts mixed up.

    Show where I said it can't make up rules? Do you now believe in unlimited power of a president?

    You are argumentative. No doubt about that fact. You are carrying on like you got slapped.

    Obviously Carlson thinks lot of his own importance??? Why the hell should we care if he feels uncomfortable???? Tell him to get over himself.

    Not defending Biden at all. Just pointing out it's not authoritative for his wanting to keep people (in his mind) safe. I have also spoken out against those who claimed Trump was authoritative. Again, not defending Trump himself but pointing out his actions were not authoritative.

    I've never believed in unlimited power for a president, unlike Trumpists. However, the federal government can have rules for their own property. In one breath you ask where you've said that they can't make up such rules for their own property, in the next you claim it is "authoritarianism" for them to do so. Make up your mind. Which is it. This is what I'm talking about when it comes to fake indignation. There's not even a coherent complaint.

    I'll call it a strawman again. Those bitching the most about people carrying guns don't even know WHO has a gun, since its normally concealed. That's in NO WAY comparable to everyone being forced to wear a mask even after they're vaccinated. "They" are protecting us from what exactly? What statistical probability of vaccinated people catching Covid from other vaccinated people? C'mon!! And being a pain in the ass is the most basic example of impacting people's lives. People carrying guns around you while you NEVER know, impacts NO ONE's lives and isn't a pain in the ass either=)

    And if you want to talk MORE about people bitching about statistical improbabilities, like look no further then SYSTEMIC racism against blacks with the police. Care to guess the probability of an unarmed innocent black person getting shot and killed by police? Then compare that seriousness with the perception these nutbags are pushing.

    Here's MORE math. There are 42 million black people in the US. 20 unarmed black people were killed by police. Raise it to 30 if you want. What are the odds? And in nearly all the cases, those that got shot were resisting arrest too, some attacking police while unarmed. You want to talk some real BS insanity. DESTROY and overhaul the entire country over that statistical threat? Are you OUT OF YOUR MIND? Yes, politicians and idiotic SJWs are literally out of their ****ing minds and think there is a problem when all it is, are Dems wanting votes and CONTROL over people by preying on their ignorance of realty.

    We're not talking on a construction site. Its all the time. You can get COVID ANYWHERE at anytime. Masked, unmasked, vaccinated, unvaccinated. Antibodies? Doesn't matter. You can fall at anytime and crap your skull. Wear masks FOREVER? You never even responded seriously to my post but instead brought up a strawman, because you have NO response of worth, because you KNOW its BS.

    Your chances of being infected by covid are much higher than having to have a gun battle to protect yourself, but ...

    If that's what you need to tell yourself, I appreciate the white flag and will try waving goodbye to your silhouette as it runs away over the horizon. Ta ta.

    The EO that deals with only Fed property and says to follow CDC guidelines? That EO?

    Guidelines are not orders. Biden issued orders. I do not see you denying he did that.

    Suppose you went to work. And upon arriving the boss issued you an order to wear a mask. Think the union would support that order?

    And you mistook your own posts as somehow containing factual information, then ran away when people pointed out that this wasn't the case. As you will continue to do.

    Biden issued an order telling people in Fed buildings and land that they should follow the CDC guidelines for wearing mask. If you would actually read it for yourself you would know this.

    100% just like the support the boss telling me what sort of clothing to wear and that I have to wear shoes.

    No Fed Employee union had an issue with the EO.

    Even when I was in Local 34 (piledrivers, dock and wharf building union) they did not order me to wear special clothing.
    I have been in a few unions that did not order me to wear particular garments.

    I like this argument! Though I usually use it in a slightly different context:

    'ridiculous. is hoplophobe really saying that he feels uncomfortable if I protect myself from deadly crime? well **** his widdle "feelings."

    i'm carrying a gun until this violence epidemic is under control. hoplophobes, and you, should do likewise.'
