Woman Punches Hidden Holes In Her Face Masks, Posts Photos On Facebook For People To Roast

https://god.dailydot.com/hidden-holes-face-masks/

A California woman posted public evidence of herself possibly violating mask mandates and generally putting everyone she comes in contact with at risk by punching hidden holes in her face masks, sneaking them into the folds so they’re not visible when worn. In spite of thousands of comments from people condemning her for potentially spreading a deadly disease, she has let it be known in subsequent Facebook posts that she is not listening.

Danniel Paquette’s only state reason for doing this is because she supposedly doesn’t “feed into the bullsh*t” but still needs to shop for groceries, and apparently can’t get them delivered or do curbside pickup as many retailers are now offering.

Paquette appears to be one of many in the U.S. who is having a hard time with the general concept of infectious disease. The novel coronavirus has been found to effectively spread via asymptomatic carriers, meaning that wearing a mask is not just an individual choice to protect oneself, as this woman seems to believe.

“I’m not worried about getting Covid-19,” she said according to LadBible. “I’m healthy and would recover. I’m not around anyone immuno-compromised.”

3. "Sweet, kindhearted" Danniel Paquette

Misty Eichholz, a long-time bartender at PJ’s Roadhouse in Placerville, and Danniel Paquette went to Thailand Feb. 16 for a one month vacation. They were arrested one week into their trip.

According to a Gofund me post, Eichholz and Paquette were traveling through Cambodia and Thailand. In Thailand “they came across U.S. currency in the street and believed it to be pure luck,” the post states. “Luck turned to terror, however, when attempting to exchange the currency, they were counterfeit.”

The family has set up two funding pages, Gofundme at gofundme.com/release-misty-and-dannielle-fund and Youcaring at youcaring.com/mistyeichholzanddannielpaquette-1111013, with the hopes of raising at least $50,000 for their attorney.

“To anyone who has met these two beautiful girls (you) know what kind of people they are. Each of them embody light,” the Gofund me page states. “They are the most sweet, kindhearted and soulful individuals that I have ever met.”

As of Monday they had their passports confiscated and are staying at a hostel until their trial next month.

if they get sick.

Yesterday I was in an art gallery and the woman working there had her mask below her nose. I kept on telling her that it needed to be covering her nose but I may as well have been speaking martian. Had I not been there with a friend, who knew her, I'd have walked out after she didn't pull it up the first time I said it.

5. What a sneaky idiot. Just wear a mask and not go thru the trouble...

to pretend to wear one. Just another sick, stupid trumper. She says if she gets it she'll recover. Why the hell would anyone want to get sick with this virus and all it's long-term respiratory, neurological, cardiac and cognitive consequences?

Not smart, but if they were smart wearing a mask wouldn't be an issue with them.

8. How would she even know if a stranger at the store, or a neighbor, is immunocompromised?

My husband has ulcerative colitis, which is in remission because he takes an immunosuppressant & will do so for life. He’s not wearing a sign on his shirt — he’s out walking the dog right now saying hi to neighbors, like a normal human being.

And she thinks she’d know. And she thinks it’s all about her. What the hell is wrong with some people’s brains?

12. Instead of withholding money from cities that refuse to issue a mask rule or claim they can't

regulate such a rule, why don't we shut off electric and water services to the homes of people who are seen without wearing masks? Their lives need to be made unbearably uncomfortable because unbearably uncomfortable -- and possibly fatal-- is the reality of someone who gets COVID will experience because of someone not wearing a mask.
