End the mask mandate
 

The masks are nothing more than virtue signaling. King Ralph did not mandate them until 3 months after the pandemic began. He mandated them a full week after large parts of the state had already entered into Phase 1. King Ralph ran around Virginia Beach without a mask and without maintaining social distancing. King Ralph allowed thousands of protesters (some violent) to congregate for large periods of time without declaring a state of emergency. This is in stark contrast to the way he handled the annual 2A rally in Jan. 2020. In that case, he declared a state of emergency prior to the event. During this pandemic, however, protesting and even tearing down statues and committing acts of arson is just fine for King Ralph. Which is really ironic when you consider these demonstrations and crimes are taking place in communities that are supposedly more vulnerable to the virus. I thought we were supposed to protect these vulnerable populations. I have no doubt he will drag this out for months. That's what tyrants do.
