Ohio State Rep. Candice Keller didnt wear a mask when she shopped Thursday at a Middletown Walgreens.
She did wear a blue hat featuring an American flag and the name Reagan.
Keller posted on Facebook a photo of herself on Facebook outside the door of the Walgreens. A sign on the door said, Mandatory face protection is required to enter.
Spent $53. No mask. Only one in the store maskless, Keller wrote in the post. Be brave. Try it. Youll like it.
Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine signed an order that went into effect on Thursday mandating masks be worn indoors at businesses and in public settings in Butler and Hamilton County. The order was a response to the spiking number of COVID-19 cases in the counties.

'I am not the mask police': Butler County Sheriff says he won't enforce mandatory masks
BUTLER COUNTY, Ohio Butler County Sheriff Richard Jones said Tuesday afternoon that his office will not enforce any sort of face mask mandate.
I can tell you this I am not the mask police. I am not going to enforce any mask-wearing. That is not my responsibility. That is not my job. People should be able to make those choices themselves, the sheriff said during an impromptu press conference on Facebook Live.
The news comes as the Ohio Department of Health issued a mandate that all citizens in Ohio's "red counties" wear masks to slow the spread of coronavirus across the state.
Butler County, along with Hamilton, Montgomery, Franklin, Huron, Cuyahoga and Trumbull counties, were identified as hot spots by Gov. Mike DeWine.

Yes, be brave folks. You will need it as they sedate you to take the exciting tube that you will boldly endure. That is, after a week or more of feeling like you are constantly being hit with a sledgehammer.
But wait, there's more! Even if you survive that period of ferocious bravery, dear heroes to be, you may go on to endure having an amputation, dialysis, strokes, lung transplants and so much more with many long and short-term complications with death looking at you wantonly, saying, "Here kitty, kitty!" The brain damage and cognitive decline is just so tough and a real proof of your bravado and fearlessness.
Take one for the Gipper! TRY IT. YOU'LL LIKE IT. Being deathly ill and on the verge of death is freedom.

Here is how stupid Candice is:
"In 2019 Candice Keller and Ron Hood sponsored legislation that would ban abortion in Ohio and criminalise "abortion murder". Doctors who performed abortions in cases of ectopic pregnancy and other life-threatening conditions would be exempt from prosecution only if they "[took] all possible steps to preserve the life of the unborn child, while preserving the life of the woman. Such steps include, if applicable, attempting to reimplant an ectopic pregnancy into the woman's uterus". Reimplantation of an ectopic pregnancy is not a recognised or feasible medical procedure.

A Southwest Ohio politician has stirred anger for a Sunday post on social media in which she blamed mass shootings on "drag queen advocates," "homosexual marriage," open borders and even former President Barack Obama.
In the Facebook post, Ohio Rep. Candice Keller complained about liberals playing the "blame game" after every shooting and asked why not place the blame where it belongs. The Republican lives in Middletown, about 30 miles south of Dayton, where a gunman killed nine people early Sunday.
