The Orange County Board of Education has voted 4-1 for in-person instruction when schools open in August with no masks or social distancing:

This vote comes after neighboring Los Angeles and San Diego counties announced the year would start with online-only education:
BREAKING: California's two largest school districts, Los Angeles and San Diego, have announced all classes will begin online only in the fall in order to protect students and staff against COVID-19.https://t.co/W9Pfg09I5a

This vote, however, is not binding and these are just “guidelines.” From the Orange County Register:
“The board has no power to direct any of Orange County’s 27 school districts to follow its guidelines, which are in direct opposition to those issued by the Orange County Department of Education, state public health officials and others.”

And Gov. Gavin Newsom just shut down Orange County, so we imagine in-class learning won’t happen in Orange County anyway:

But blue-check libs are acting just how you’d expect them to act despite the non-binding nature of this vote:
Dumbass California,
During AMERIGEDDON one night at the Irvine Improv TWO. Different KKK groups showed up and during the show complained about my Trump material, then got in an argument in the lobby.
ORANGE county? It’s too perfect. Now they’re gonna Kill your kids. Bitchin’ https://t.co/1DIN8mUYKc— Christopher Titus (@TitusNation) July 14, 2020
Maybe it will be a good thing, he says:
I do not say this lightly, I say it with a heavy heart, but maybe watching kids die and/or kill their parents or grandparents is the lesson these braindead motherfuckers need to finally shock them into some semblance of humanity. https://t.co/vZjSV9CMCF

And “votes to murder teachers”:
Orange County Board of Education votes to murder teachers, school staff and students. May you 4 be the first to welcome students face-to-face without a mask. Teacher Unions better earn your ? dues and fight this. https://t.co/SOwwi3OU4C

Watch how fast libs become fans of homeschooling after all this:
Clearly the OC educational system didn’t work on these fools. Maybe I should just pull my kids out of school for the year. https://t.co/GR4b47ff4b
