showing their classmates without masks "virtual photos." Does he have any fucking idea what he's saying? Those pictures were some sort of CGI magic made to make Republicans look bad? I so hope that Kemp goes down with Trump and the rest!

everything on the computer is called "virtual." His meaning of virtual is akin to the meaning of cyber to others. But as you say, who knows what's rattling around in that filthy bird cage of a mind.

KKKemp and the rethug school board supervisors did trump’s bidding at the expense of teachers and students. No mask mandate, no social distancing.

Pretending that kids don’t spread germs, and that schools are not Petri dishes with perfect growing conditions for microorganisms?

These are NOT new concepts.
