More Nasty Double Standards, Private Gyms in San Francisco Forced Shut But Gyms in Government Buildings Are Open

Democrats are extremely consistent. They firmly believe that they themselves must always be exempt from the rules that they create for the “little people.”

Late last week we had “salongate” where Speaker Nancy Pelosi decided to break the rules in her city and get a haircut, without a mask, in San Francisco.

Now we learn that gyms in public buildings, for government workers have been open since July while privately owned gyms in the city are still forced shut.

Via the Washington Times:

Gyms within government buildings in San Francisco have been open for months, despite privately owned establishments being ordered to close due to the coronavirus.

“It’s shocking, it’s infuriating,” Daniele Rabkin, of Crossfit Golden Gate, told a local NBC station. “Even though they’re getting exposed, there are no repercussions, no ramifications? It’s shocking.”

The gyms that have been open for government employees include those for police officers, judges, lawyers, bailiffs, and paralegals, according to the report. One such gym, the Hall of Justice gym, has been open since July 1.

“It just demonstrates that there seems to be some kind of a double standard between what city employees are allowed to do and what the residents of San Francisco are allowed to do,” Dave Karraker, owner of MX3 Fitness in the Castro, said.

“What the city has unwillingly done is created this great case study that says that working out indoors is actually safe,” said Karraker. “So, at this point, we’re just demanding that they allow us to have the same workout privileges for the citizens of San Francisco that the employees of San Francisco have.”

Just another example of the arbitrariness of the Covid lockdown rules and the double standard that Democrats and leftists maintain.

Rules for the little people, and rules for the ruling class.

If Democrats didn’t have double standards they would have no standards at all.
