National Review — Another article you won’t read in 99% of the “news” media because, oh do I even have to say it?… she’s a lefty mayor! (and we can well imagine the “news” media’s faux outrage if she was a he and he was a Republican):
The mayor of San Francisco [London Breed] says that she shouldn’t be criticized for breaking her own COVID rules, because, and I quote, “I was feeling the spirit and I wasn’t thinking about a mask.” CBS reports:
“We don’t need the fun police to come in and micromanage and tell us what we should or shouldn’t be doing,” said Breed during an interview to address the controversy.
The city’s health order states attendees at live indoor performances must remain masked except when actively eating or drinking. Breed maintained that she was drinking at the time.
“My drink was sitting at the table,” said Breed. “I got up and started dancing because I was feeling the spirit and I wasn’t thinking about a mask.”
As Charles C.W. Cooke points out, the hideousness doesn’t stop just at her hypocrisy, her failure to take responsibility for her own actions, or her elitist rule-breaking, it’s the fact that she laments the notion of “the fun police,” when, in fact, as mayor and as the perpetrator of these asinine rules, she IS “the fun police.”
