CPAC attendees boo, yell 'freedom' when asked to wear masks

Source: The Hill

Boos could be heard Friday when organizers of the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Orlando asked attendees to wear their masks to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.

Loud boos and cheers for "Freedom" were heard echoing throughout the room as American Conservative Union Executive Director Dan Schneider and CPAC director Carly Patrick asked for attendees to adhere to the coronavirus restrictions put in place by Hyatt Regency Orlando, where the event is being held this year.

"A private hotel, just like your house, gets to set its own rules," Schneider told the crowd.

"We are in a private facility and we do want to be respectful of the ordinances they have, as they're a private property. So please, everyone, when you're in the ballroom, when you're seated you should still be wearing a mask." Patrick said. "So if everyone can go ahead and work on that. I know it's not the most fun."

8. You would think, people so paranoid they believe the Left would stage an insurrection . . .

to overturn the results of an election the Left won, would also consider the possibility that the Left might send "suicide Covid bombers" into their midst to infect them all. In this scenario, masks would be the equivalent of their guns, the means by which they would thwart the nefarious plot against them.

Or maybe they're just thicker than a brick.
