Ron DeSantis: "I want to see my kids smiling." (caution, graphic photographs)

[George II]

"I have young kids. My wife and I are not going to do the masks with the kids. We never have," he said. "I want to see my kids smiling. I want them having fun."

Can you see them smiling, Governor?

1. this is heartbreaking

24. DeathSantis is taking the place of Ramesses in the movie The Ten Commandments

.

A few screen grabs of the movie could present:


1) Ramesses, Queen Nefertari & their son meeting Moses for the first time. (Moses could be Science/Doctors.)

Science/Doctors: They plead to protect the children.

DeathSantis replies:
"I have young kids. My wife and I are not going to do the masks with the kids. We never have. I want to see my kids smiling. I want them having fun." followed with his edict "So let it be written, so let it be done."


===========


2) Ramesses is pouring what is now blood into the water while trying to bless it as Moses looks on.

DeathSantis: "I hereby add more blood into the waters of Florida."


===========


3) Queen Nefertari is at the side of her sleeping son, pleading to Moses to protect him.

Queen Nefertari: "Science/Doctors please save by son. Please give him the vaccine."

Science/Doctors: "It is too late for the vaccine."


===========


4) Ramesses has his son on the the alter of the Lord of Darkness and prays to him.

DeathSantis: "'Trump Lord of Darkness' are you not greater than Science/Doctors? I followed your playbook to become the new head of the Fascists. Restore my son."

Queen Nefertari": "He can not hear you, he is nothing but stone."

DeathSantis: "He will hear me. I am Republican."

2. We all want to see our kids smiling, Ron, that's why we're masking up. n/t

[malaise]

3. Those aren't his kids

He does not give a flying fuck

Yesterday Florida had more cases than they have had since the start of the pandemic

[Kid Berwyn]

6. He taught his kids to build a wall for a commercial.

7. I remember

total scumbag

[Midnight Writer]

8. Yep, last time I saw his kids he was teaching them to build a wall to keep out the Mexicans.

His kids are going to grow up to be as callous as he is.

[elias7]

4. We all do, you moron. Ever teach your children safety and delayed gratification?

[spanone]

5. Fuck this moron.

[rickyhall]

9. DeSantis is DeSatan

[TheBlackAdder]

10. JFC! This burns me up. Difference between performing governor duties & wanton homicidal malfeasance

[11 Bravo]

11. Do your kids wear seat belts, Ronnie, or would that impinge on their freedumb?

Do you have safety caps on pill bottles, or would that take away their God-given right to get inyo your Xanax stash?

[NJCher]

13. that's not my experience

I teach kids and I am always amazed at how good they are with the masks.

Of course, this is the northeast, I'm in a liberal town, and they see their parents exhibiting good mask wearing behavior.

[mcar]

16. My husband is a FL teacher

His students had no problem with wearing masks last school year.

We have flown from FL to DC twice in the last month when our granddaughter was born. Airports and planes filled with families going to or coming from Orlando. Masks for everyone 2YO and over are mandated on planes/airports. I did not see one kid resisting wearing a mask - and that included a 5 hour delay in Orlando a few weeks ago.

17. The Delta variant is doing it's own "fear mongering".

This is a new stage and previous statistics mean little.

Let's not play Russian Roulette with kids, eh?

[mcar]

14. Of all the horrible R govs in this country

My own, Gov. DeathSentence, is the worst of the worst. He is pure evil.

[Botany]

15. I have come to one simple truth

Ron DeSantis wants the disease to spread because
that is his political calculus. He sees it as good for
the gop.

[XanaDUer2]

18. And his voters don't understand they're

political collateral damage

[Botany]

20. Just about all of this C-19 damage can be traced back ..

... to the GOP and not just here but world wide too. President Obama along with other nations had the personal, protocols, and materials in place that in most likelihood would have stopped the virus in China or at the
very least mitigated its damage but Trump fired the epidemiologist who was on the ground in Wuhan and trashed programs that would have helped.

And now we have people like DeSantis and Fox News who are so craven that they will have the disease, suffering, and deaths keep going so Joe Biden doesn't get "a win."

I might be wrong but I think I'm not.

[XanaDUer2]

22. I think you're right

I never liked Republicans, but their evil is real

[demigoddess]

19. my daughter, mentally about 1 yr old, wears a mask just fine.

when she sees others doing it.

[WarGamer]

21. Not that it matters much...

But using a Google Image Search shows all 3 of those images pre-date COVID-19 and there's no evidence they were even taken in Florida, or the USA for that matter.

I appreciate your intent, and agree.

[COL Mustard]

23. That Boy Ain't Right

As the saying goes.
