Opinion | Marcie Bianco: COVID-19 mask mandates in Wisconsin and elsewhere spark 'my body, my choice' hypocrisy. - NBCNewsTHINK

It is, dare I say, hypocritical — or, at the very least, ironic — for anti-maskers to claim their personal freedom is jeopardized by being “forced” to wear a mask while at the same time advocating that women be forced to carry out an unwanted, and potentially life-threatening, pregnancy.

Through a religious mindset, all life — born, unborn, dead — is equal. The advocates of this cause smartly point to the Biblically inflected language of the declaration as proof that this state-sanctioned “unalienable right” to life extends to fetuses, using the oxymoron “unborn human beings.”

THINK Over this mask issue. You wear it or you don't. Herman Cain didn't wear one either and sad to say he is deceased. IJS

THINK Problem is that your 'choice' effects (kills) others around you. I wear a mask, not because I want to, but to protect others, as well as myself. But hey, if these 'progressives' want to kill each other off, who am I to stop them.

THINK I’m dying reading the comments. The chick in the pic is hot too and a genius.

THINK Where's a BLM dance party when you need one?

THINK DIE4DONALD

THINK 😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠Stupid idiot

THINK Not your choice to infect others !!

THINK Wear the damn mask stop being a moran

THINK Crazy, applies to masks but not pregnancy

THINK I'm with u on birth control and abortions, but not this. Ur freedom to breathe in a lethal weapon like COVID-19 affects me and my family. If u don't wear a mask in confined spaces like Walmart, u should be forced to shop at an inconvenient time different from those who wear masks

THINK For those MORONS WHO DON'T BELIEVE IN WEARING MASKS. I LOST A MY BROTHER TO COVID THIS PAST FRIDAY 31ST. AND THE REST OF YOU TRUMP SUPPORTERS. I SAY TO YOU. ' OH WELL. WHO CARES. YOU DIDN'T. I DON'T EITHER.

THINK So no one else matters? Your children, other peoples children. Your parents no one you the peoples who want to spread death across the country trying to kill as many peoples as they can.

THINK Be prepared to get sick then.

THINK Agree with these people....not hypocrisy

THINK Let the natural selection work.

THINK If you tout “my body my choice” when it comes to wearing a face mask, then you best be touting the same thing for anything I want to do with MY BODY—it is MY CHOICE! WomensRights are human rights.

THINK It’s not your body when it infiltrates mine with your germs ! All you n9n mask wearers can Kiss My Ass , opines red head getting fired up , maybe I’ll see ya in line on down the road !

THINK But it’s not your body your hurting. You can’t hurt others..

THINK How a bout the unborn ! This is the same reasoning for Drugs I’m not hurting anyone! But my family and friends

THINK How do u mandate something that hasnt been scientifically proven that it contains the spread of a virus. If masks actually work then why all the positive results? More people than not are wearing masks & yet we still have rising numbers of positive tests. Can’t have it both ways

THINK Wearing a mask is not just about you.

THINK No it’s my body my health WEAR THE MASK

THINK This is the dumbest argument ever! Just being contrary for the sake of having liberty or a platform to do so. Wtf about community spread and 150k dead people don't you get?! If you wont wear a mask, then at least sport a t-shirt that says 'I'm a Moron' on it!

THINK These same dumbasses get in their cars and strap a seatbelt to their bodies ... for safety... FOR SAFETY!!!!

THINK But your body is not allowed to infect my body, that’s assault. Don’t want to wear the mask, no problem, keep your butt at home.

THINK Only when convenient when it affects them!

THINK we're ordered to hid and the cases continue to rise. hiding does nothing.

THINK Its really not a choice. The virus doesn't choice you because of something you do, it don't care about your decision not to wear a mask, it only cares about killing you.

THINK Pro-choice shouldn't be invoke in this situation.

THINK Don't come anywhere near my family and I if you are not wearing a mask or else....

THINK Hypocrites! Will they say the same thing when it comes to abortion and women's health?

THINK Masks should be a choice, between life and death WEAR A MASK

THINK

THINK My health and others health should not be in jeopardy because your choice is to be thoughtless and selfish.

THINK To those “MyBody&MyChoice” morons, you have rights not to mind what you inhale but you don’t have rights to exhale without filtering by mask. “YourBody&YourChoice” has rights to eat whatever you like but “YourBody&YourChoice” doesn’t have rights to take shit wherever you want.

THINK Purposely killing a baby who is another human being and someone not wearing a mask are nowhere near to being the same things.

THINK Not the sharpest tool in the shed.

THINK 😂 yeah your corpse, your choice

THINK

THINK It’s your choice if you are impacting only yourself. When it can spread to others, it is selfish

THINK Conservatives can never see the irony in their actions

THINK Must be a suitable Island for this type of mindset ,its called a PANDEMIC !,. right now nature is in control

THINK Pathetic group lol😂!

THINK Your spit passed on without mask!!

THINK OMG! Sounds like complete gobblety gook! Could the writing be any more contorted/worse!

THINK The country has basically gone mad.

THINK Really your body your choice. So keep your infected body away from our body. Keep your distance. Period. 😷👉🗽

THINK What happened to the Republican Party? How did responding to a public health crisis become a matter of politics? Oh, by the way, that argument 'my body, my choice' is what women fighting to keep their choices have been saying for decades and you said NO.

THINK

THINK This argument is stupid, if u could catch a case of abortion then maybe but wearing a mask has been proven to decrease infection rate with social distancing

THINK What terrible trauma has warped the mind of women who proudly refuse to wear a mask; to endanger others including children.

THINK One does not pertain to the other, kind of a disgusting OPINION piece if you ask me, this is typical NBC shaping things to fit a narrative.

THINK Yr body yr choice,after infecting me what will u say🤔🤔🤔

THINK All the hypocrisy from the republicans. The choice still leads to human death. But the death that the republicans bring isn't part of them it's a total stranger or love one.

THINK Let them have the choice, but make it a Federal Mandate Law to wear them as recommended or suffer stiff fines and jail

THINK Emboldened x Trumps' Oval Office Criminal Syndicate through misinformation propaganda and fragmenting racist genocidal public policy that promotes herd immunity without a vaccine/special false beliefs that injure and kill are not protected by the constitution.~🇺🇸 E Pluribus Unum

THINK No, actually it is my body and not your choice to infect me! You selfish person.

THINK Not hypocrisy, it’s satire.

THINK As long as your choice doesn’t infringe on others... Not wearing a mask is dangerous to my health. Put on a Mask Moron....😷😷😷

THINK So if you , had the Aids Virus. Which also kills, would you feel the same way?

THINK why are we at war over masks? The reasons why many Americans refuse to wear masks

THINK Let's burn those seat belts and No Smoking signs too because that's freedom or is it just dumb ?

THINK What happens to the aborted fetuses?

THINK That she holds that sign unironically would be hilarious if it wasn't insane.

THINK

THINK

THINK No si tu libertad afecta a otros!

THINK The very same people who scream and curse at pro-choice advocates are now using pro-choice arguments -- just to help spread a deadly virus. These right wing nut jobs are sick. They have a lot of nerve calling themselves Christians. They agents of Satan.

THINK I hope the COVID crawls up her underwear 🙀🙀🙀

THINK Worse, government is forcing us to act on face coverings, while abortion is a choice. Not really comparable in that sense, but i guess the MSM wants to drown that point. ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯

THINK I'll bet she is anti-abortion.

THINK She's what's wrong with America

THINK Just wear the mask!

THINK This would work except pregnancy isnt contagatious.

THINK Lol at all the “pro-lifers” who suddenly think choice is important
