U.S. Rep. Bob Good on Thursday encouraged a group of Rappahannock County High School students to not wear masks in school, saying during his visit the administration “can’t stop everyone.”

“If nobody in Rappahannock complies [with the mask mandate], they can’t stop everyone,” Good (R-5th District) told the students. “If I was ya’ll, I’d say none of ya’ll wear a mask. What are they gonna do? They’re still going to have school.”

Good, a Republican representing Virginia’s 5th Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives, spoke to a Rappahannock County High School government class of about 20 students on Thursday after Tim Stockdale, the class’ teacher, invited him to speak.

The Virginia Department of Public Health is mandating that all students, teachers, staff and visitors in K-12 schools wear masks indoors, regardless of vaccination status. The event on Thursday was originally supposed to take place in the high school auditorium, but after Good refused to wear a mask, administrators moved it outdoors to the football stadium.

Hopefully some parents will sue your worthless hide when their child gets very sick.

All adults are full of shit. These “kids” don’t look impressed or engaged. I’m thinking you are spot on, sitting in the sun is way better than being stuck in the classroom.
