By Joe Hyde, Aug 28, 2021
SAN ANGELO, TX Caleb Wallace, the San Angelo man whose life came to define the revolt against government overreach in Covid-19 restrictions, died today of Covid-19. He had been at Shannon Medical Center since July 30.
According to his wife, Jessica, who was interviewed by the New York Times, when Caleb came down with Covid-19, he initially self-medicated with copious doses of Vitamin D, C, aspirin, and Zinc. He also took ivermectin, a drug used to treat infections in the body caused by parasites, such head lice and scabies. This drug has been recently touted as an alternative for treating Covid-19. Ivermectin is derided by those on the Left and most medical professionals as horse paste, as the animal form of the drug can be purchased at feed supply stores. Jessica, in her interview with the Times, was not clear if Caleb had been prescribed ivermectin for humans or had taken the veterinarian version.

Many have criticized Wallace for his dogged pursuit for the truth during an era of civil unrest, wavering medical experts, changing scientific conditions, political censorship, uneven enforcement of mitigation rules, and a November presidential election many still suspect was not honest. In general he was just a blue collar guy who sold welding equipment who didnt trust the government or experts because he sensed he didnt have the freedom to weigh and consider in the public square the information that he held in suspicion. He reacted to that by being vocal and organizing public protests. It was his way of seeking the truth.

He does a lot of work keeping up with covid numbers in San Angelo (I went to AIT there)
This was disturbing. It has new cases of covid, the age, ethnicity and antigen of the new cases

Whatever his political leanings, I'd like to see that published more in the news

(5,939 posts)He didn't care enough about his wife and kids to get vaccinated or to wear a goddam mask. I know, his wife isn't (or wasn't) vaccinated so I have no fucks for her either. But he didn't care enough about his kids to take those simple precautions. As a result, he deserved what he got. Oh, and he probably left them with huge stacks of medical bills.
Still no sympathy. Just can't do it.

I feel sorry for his children; they didn't ask to have such idiots as parents.

(3,238 posts)SAN ANGELO, TX Caleb Wallace, the San Angelo man whose life came to define the revolting moronic views against Covid-19 restrictions, was given total freedom today by Covid-19. He had been forced by the COVID-19 DELTA variant, to spend the end of his miserable, moronic life, at Shannon Medical Center.
According to his wife, Jessica, who was interviewed by the New York Times, when Caleb came down with Covid-19, he initially self-medicated, using the Donald Trump anal ass light/ Clorox technique. When that failed, genius, took anal ivermectin horse suppositories, a drug used to treat infections in horses, cows, and hippos, caused by trump parasites, such as Ivanka lice and Melania scabies. This bovine, horse drug, has been pushed by right wing hacks and quacks, as an alternative for treating Covid-19, but as usual, only complete morons fall for this bullshit. Ivermectin is honestly portrayed by those on the Left and most medical professionals as horse paste, as the animal form of the drug can be purchased at feed supply stores. Jessica, in her interview with the Times, was not clear if Caleb had been mixing his ivermectin with crushed hydroxychloroquine or had been going to the veterinarian to receive ivermectin anal feedings.

Many have criticized Wallace for acting like an obnoxious animal in his pursuit of those who trust science and medicine. He didnt trust medical experts, didnt trust science, was motivated by political censorship, and would become unhinged by the simple enforcement of mitigation rules. Caleb was a member of the insurrectionist traitors club who attacked the Capitol after Joe Biden won in a fair and free election. He was a brainwashed moron, who still suspected that the election was stolen, like Trump and Putin stole the election from Hillary Clinton. In general, he was just a simple minded guy who stole welding equipment and who didnt believe in facts or experts. Caleb believed a lot of nonsense and didnt have the mental ability to weigh and consider facts. He would rather shout his unfounded suspicions in the public square, which allowed normal citizens to witness the morons idiocy in person. He was just another dangerous, big mouthed moron, ranting in public He wasnt interested in seeking the truth. It has been said, that you cant fix stupid, but as I have seen in a recent cartoon, COVID says, I can fix stupid. And it looks like COVID has done so again. Enjoy your freedom Caleb!

(1,178 posts)What chaps me to no end is people like him had a chance to listen to people in order to do the right thing. But he refused to....refused to listen to anyone. When in fact, he went much more in the opposite direction. Now all of a sudden we're supposed to feel sympathy?
