enforcing the refusal of service of a private business. they have a standard, she didnt meet it, she was asked to leave.
funny tho that you'd support a baker refusing a cake for a gay couple's wedding but wont support businesses essentially enforcing a dress code. whats next for the pseudo libertarian jackboots of the world? no shoes and no shirt mandates are a shot at liberty?
Nah bro. Businesses can refuse black people if they want, but wanting to keep their employees safe is over the line.
Wow... Cam really has become a typical Republican.

How many mutated strains exist, genius? Serious question here. I've heard of a dozen already, and in all likelihood, there are dozens more that have not yet been documented.
As with every other coronavirus-based cold, you are not going to "cure" it. It's going to be a part of life in one manner or another for the rest of time. And no, it's not particularly harmful on an overall scale, beyond any other flu or cold.
In most respects, Covid-19 has been far less impactful than the seasonal flu. The seasonal flu kills a far larger number of young children, teenagers, and healthy population. Covid has almost entirely passed that population by in both serious health impacts and fatalities.
You're pushing a narrative, not facts. Once again, a communist demanding that everyone follow his orders when he can't even make his own bed. Enough with the nonsense, stick with the facts, mate.
The number of mutated strains isn't what's important. The important part is if the spike protein mutates to reset immunity, which we haven't yet observed.
A 1% death rate for 40-50 year olds is WAYYYYYYYY more deadly than the common cold. You're really trying to find the dumbest hill to die on, aren't you?
Covid killed fewer teens and kids... after we did mask mandates, shut down a good portion of the economy, and totally changed the way we live our lives. By comparison, the flu under these conditions was virtually non-existant.
Dude, I've wrecked you on literally every Covid talking point for a year. Just drop it and accept the science.
Also, you're wrong. For a normal year comparison here's the 2018-2019 data
