“As long as I’m wearing a mask… stick ’em up!”
Flash! Stop the presses! Huge news! Would you believe it? Wearing a mask can conceal your identity! Like, while you’re committing a crime.
You can’t fool Britain forever! And here we were, thinking Sherlock Holmes had retired. But now they have a bill pending in Parliament to impose a jail term and a fine on anybody caught wearing a mask–especially at any kind of political protest (https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2024/02/08/make-your-mind-up-now-british-government-wants-to-arrest-people-for-wearing-a-mask/).
Two years ago they were busting you for not wearing a mask. Almost 4,000 people were fined 200 pounds each for NOT wearing masks.
Ooh-ooh, I’ve got an idea! Pass the new law, but keep the old law, too! So you can be arrested and fined for either wearing a mask or not wearing a mask. That’ll keep ’em on their toes!
[Lest we forget, more than a few people here in The Land O’ the Free were harassed and even arrested for not wearing masks while COVID was king. If we ever allow this to be done to us again, we’ll deserve it.]
