On a historic and record-breaking day for coronavirus cases in Florida, Gov. Ron DeSantis says there are no plans to issue a statewide mandate to make people wear masks in public places. Speaking at Gulf Coast Medical Center in Fort Myers, the governor said policing a mandate like that would "backfire." "To do police and put criminal penalties on that is something that is probably gonna, would backfire," DeSantis said. Some areas throughout Florida, like Palm Beach County, are requiring everyone to wear masks inside all public buildings. The governor said those decisions are up to local municipalities. "They're gonna have to figure out how they're gonna use the long arm of the law to enforce it or not," DeSantis said

"Today obviously, a lot of news saying, huge number of quote, cases. Really nothing has changed in the past week," DeSantis said.

RIP Florida

I hate to say it but he's right.

People are flipping out right now over masks thanks to Donald Trump

Imagine the chaos that would ensue if police were fining and arresting people for refusing to wear one?

It would be fires and riots across the state.

We simply arrest them for that. We need to start taking the pandemic seriously and enforce masks, social distancing, and stay at home orders by law.

You want people to avoid crowded indoor spaces; putting them in jail is just worsening the issue.

Ideally, you might have public servants handing out masks, rather than punishing those without one, but that's not really a tool in the police's box.

Do you people think you get arrested for all infractions?

are you aware they can simply issue fines for failing to wear masks?

Trump is definitely telling this moron to say this stuff or he'll endorse his primary opponent in 2022.

At least people in jail wouldnt be allowed to travel. Jails can test inmates and group them in the same cell thereby ensuring no one gets infected.

I think the crazies are especially attracted to places like that.

There's a severe lack of misunderstanding of how anything works in this post

The solution is build prisons for people that don't wear mask or social distance
