SEPTA is the  Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority and they found themselves in a political and PR pickle by first ordering riders to wear mask and then went stupid enforcing their rule.

 

As you noticed, the man was not even arrested, just dragged out like a reluctant sack of potatoes and cats.

And then the sheer stupidity of somebody in authority demanding people to get off the bus for not wearing a mask while he is bare-faced himself.

The next pic shows what is supposed to be tyhe internal coms system in the buses indicating that mask are not mandated

Too much of a fuck up ended up with SEPTA backing down from its original orders.

SEPTA says it will no longer enforce a short-lived policy requiring riders to wear facial coverings after a widely shared video showing a man being dragged off a bus, allegedly for not wearing one, prompted confusion about whether masks were mandatory while riding public transit.
The video shows several Philadelphia police officers forcibly removing the man, who is later heard saying he was taken off the bus for not wearing a mask.

After a viral video shows a man being dragged off a bus, SEPTA reverses its coronavirus face mask requirement

It was a very dumb move by SEPTA. If you have not figured you are going to have a decent percentile of people being ornery if you force them to do something, you have no business doing anything that has to do with mass amounts of citizens.  They could have been smarter and plea/shame riders to wear mask to protect the life of both other riders, drivers and workers, and they have the ammunition to do so:

Again, dumb and unnecessary move.

  1. Seems nothing has changed with SEPTA … except modern technology increases the propagation speed of both incompetence, and publicizing what ensues therefrom.

  2. Philadelphia… another great American city turned to a shithole by decades of DemonKKKrat criminals ruling the city. SMH
