I hate fireworks every year. But this year in particular, haven’t people had enough fucking fireworks?

People who contract COVID-19 after attending any Fourth of July parties or fireworks exhibits should be prohibited from taking an ICU bed or ventilator from another, smarter patient--not in retribution but because they've already shown they make horrible life decisions.

At least one mayor has balls

Fuck Lancaster

LockThemUp

Nothing to celebrate, idiots can’t do the basics to get thru this pandemic. Wait til malls are closed and Christmas isn’t the same as it has been. Trumpers will have a melt down but they will be the reason everything is still closed in December.

Time to be free again, no more bans and BS

Or “Crazy Lancaster” as I call it.
