"Friday will be my last day as a KCS student" Knox County Schools mask mandate sparks emotion

The Knox County Board of Education held met to discuss the process for selecting a new superintendent, but during the public forum portion of the Wednesday night meeting, students and parents turned the conversation to a federal judge’s temporary mask mandate.

65 people spoke at the public forum in total, with the vast majority arguing against the mandate.

“I will never comply with a mask I have not worn one yet. I will never get a COVID shot and I will never get one and I’ll take it to the death. And I will defend it under our constitution to our death,” said an upset Knox County man at the meeting.

Some students also got emotional at the meeting, with one saying he would not be attending school past Friday.

kinda hopes he does. (I had to ask forgiveness for that.) I don't feel very charitable towards folks like him. He'll be the first one to go running to the hospital when he gets sick. Bet on it.

shoving aside the accident victims and people with medical emergencies such as strokes and heart attacks who also have legitimate needs for ICU treatment. So sick of these phony "principles" they're spouting. They fold very quickly when faced with the consequences of their stubborn stupidity.
