Well mask mandates aren’t to protect them from their own stupidity so much as it’s to protect everyone else from their stupidity.

We can’t even get people to give a **** if they endanger their own life. We don’t have time to get into how absolutely inconsiderate people are when it comes to protecting someone else’s life. Let’s try and get them to take basic actions to protect themselves first.

I’ll ask more broadly: do you think states should be enacting legal mask mandates?

More interrogation? I am not on trial here.
My opinion? In some cases, yes. In other cases, no. And no, I will not elaborate at this time. I am going to work.

If you feel someone asking you questions is an interrogation, obviously you feel you’ve committed some crime. In this particular case, I think the crime in question is you are actually against mandatory mask mandates and are hiding by the illegality of this particular instance to obfuscate this fact. This has been consistent with your prior posts on the subject, where despite saying it’s serious and we should listen to the science you hold a number of atypical views to the scientific and medical consensus.

We need to clean out the riffraff in both parties or form a third one. This country is going in a terrible direction and while I will not live long enough to see the outcomes, I am saddened and deeply concerned for those who will if we do not change directions. This is supposed to be a county for ALL of the people. At least that is what we sell to our children. The 1% and corporations powers need to be reigned in or we will all be slaves--if most are not already.

ftr, you area already part of the 1%

So you admit you are a selfish garbage person. Why? Cause I am betting you wore no mask prior to 2020.

I'm obviously referring to a worldwide pandemic but we can play that game too.

I'm betting you've never left the US? Because people in other countries have worn masks as a courtesy to others for a long time when they are actively sick.

Why wouldn't you wear a mask when recommended? Fashion conscience? Head injury? Neck beard?

Status crimes are unconstitutional in this country. One cannot be illegal. Cultural barrier once again, you don't experience the sweet, sweet air of freedom below the border, you wouldn't get it

No, I think it's important for someone to provide reasoning to their statements, especially regarding public health crisis. If trump showed why he is saying that the great, if he just pulled it out of his *** then not so great.

This is what I'm wondering..
