During last weekend's Tesla Takedown protests, a Tesla customer was seen exiting a Kansas Tesla dealership to do multiple Nazi salutes in front of a cybertruck.

The Nazicar loving Nazi then tried to get protesting soccer moms with their kids to fight him while claiming to be a former US military service member.

Eventually a woman, presumably his wife, was seen dragging the hate filled Tesla customer back into the dealership.

Measles in Kansas appears to be running through unvaccinated kids of school age. Antivaxxer playgroup? Antivaxxer church?

"Data from the Kansas Department of Health and Environment reveals three juveniles between the ages of 5 and 10, one juvenile under 4-years-old, one juvenile between the ages of 11 and 13 and another juvenile between the ages of 14-17 have all tested positive for the virus."

"Red flag and high wing warnings were in effect for several states in the Plains and Midwest on Friday.
Very dry, warm and windy conditions made for extreme fire weather conditions across #Kansas, #Oklahoma and #Texas."

#Measles is very spreadable (much more infectious than covid).If you are not yet vaccinated for it, you need to get it now while you can. The vaccines are very effective (90% plus effectie rate), but you have to get them for them to work.

This is particularly critical for folks in
#Texas. but also in neighboring states - to west Texas including #Oklahoma #New Mexico and #Colorado and #Kansas
