Once again, Ted Nugent decided to express skepticism about the effectiveness of face masks during the pandemic and has mocked those who wear them, despite that both the CDC and World Health Organization have urged their universal use.
In a recent Facebook live video, Ted said:
“Some lady stopped me the other day at the hardware store, and I wasn’t wearing a mask. ‘Cause I have a permit. Here’s my permit to not wear a mask. [Extends middle finger to the camera] Because the mask thing is a lie. Oh my God. Who doesn’t know this? When you wear a heavy-duty mask during the winter and you breathe, you can tell that your breath ignores the mask. [Laughs hysterically] Who doesn’t know this s*it?
“But anyhow, this lady said, ‘I’m so glad you’re not wearing a mask, Ted, because you’re much too pretty to cover that pretty face.’ And I went, ‘Yeah, no s*it.’,”
