Man dies after being infected at a backyard party by a friend.

[PoliTalker]

Hello Concart,

This is why those of us who care about others will never, EVER forget or forgive the arrogance, stupidity and selfishness of those who continue to lie about the dangers of the virus, and who refuse to wear a mask.

"A Southern California man who tested positive for coronavirus after attending a party expressed his fear and regret a day before he died.

Thomas Macias, 51, went to a barbecue last month near his community in Lake Elsinore, about 70 miles from Los Angeles. Shortly after the party, he started feeling sick. On June 20, he posted a poignant message on Facebook to warn his loved ones about the risks of the virus, his family said. "I went out a couple of weeks ago ... because of my stupidity I put my mom and sisters and my family's health in jeopardy," he wrote. "This has been a very painful experience. This is no joke. If you have to go out, wear a mask, and practice social distancing. ... Hopefully with God's help, I'll be able to survive this." He never made it. He died a day after that post."

A sad, but way too typical story, but here's where it's different

"A friend who was at the party reached out to Macias to say he had coronavirus, and he was aware of the diagnosis when he attended the gathering but didn't think he could infect anyone because he had no symptoms, Lopez said."

So when you say that people without symptoms can't spread the virus, you are lying. When you say you don't need to wear a mask because asymptomatic people can't spread the disease, you are lying. The truth is, you are selfish, ignorant, arrogant assholes, and some of you are going to kill the people you love. And you will have murdered them as surely as if you had pulled a gun and shot them in the head. You have no place in a civil society.

Wearing a mask is mostly about protecting others.

It is very sad that this happened.

People need to get the message.

This is not about politics. We are at war. The enemy lurks unseen deeply within our society. We fight the war with social distancing and mask wearing.

Don't let the enemy get a foothold.

Protect your fellow Americans.

We are all relying on one another to fight this war.

Thank you. I also read about Mr. Macias, may he rest in peace. That "friend" should be tried for manslaughter.

RIP but then he was the most uninformed ever

So when you say that people without symptoms can't spread the virus, you are lying.

nobody sane says that. we ALL know asymptomatic transmission. I won't call you a liar..but literally nobody says that

My wife just went to a hiking trail this morning with her friend who turned 50 yrs. They both wore masks. She said nobody else was wearing one and people were huffing and puffing from exertion
just spewing out ....whatever they had.

Yep selfish, ignorant pricks.

i wont wear one in the pool either - we do practice social distancing
but outside the transmission rate and exposure time drops dramatically

Thank you. I also read about Mr. Macias, may he rest in peace. That "friend" should be tried for manslaughter.

I would feel horrible for causing the death of my friend. It’s truly unfortunate people don’t respect Mother Nature. She is just so much more powerful than we mere humans.

Gee whiz!

It might work if people considered him a leader or believed what he said. But the majority of people believe we are opening too early. And it isn't even close. Those people will stay home. And we'll let the Trump Cult kill each other.

noone i know - but if that is true- then we are really stupid because we damn near went into a recession as it was

I think the states effected should now be issuing fines or non-entry for nor wearing them inside in public

This message is hidden because Teflon Don is on your ignore list.

Tell it to the judge, murderer.

Many have tried. All have failed

It’s truly astounding that you think you can control Mother Nature

Had they let this take its course we would have reached herd immunity by now.

One death. So many more survive.

murdered by a Demmycrat......

Fascist = police state and GOP= police state

dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition, as well as strong regimentation of society - you cuckoos fit this definition like a glove

[zymurgy]

Correct. And as for the question of 'who am I to decide?' Murders should be in jail. A person who refuses to wear a mask and ends up infecting someone is a murderer.

hey moron - ever occur to you the maskless already had the disease rendering you a blathering idiot

Doesn't this sound like the White Supremacist, the KKK, and the Neo-Nazis, which comprise Trump's base.

force people to bake cakes, prevent people from working. telling people they can't leave their house. telling everyone what language is ok and what is not,

you fuck heads are fascists - you specifically are
