“What is it with people in Florida not wearing masks in these large stores?”
Because, as you note, they are PEOPLE, not ignorant sheep.
I’m in Tennessee and I don’t wear a mask “in large stores” — or any stores for that matter.
Costco has been in our rear view mirror since the mask policy was instituted. Disgusting Seattle liberals foisting their insanity on all of us. (I wonder if their policy to diminsh Trump can be considered an in-kind donation to the Biden campaign. How would that be quantified?)
I applaud you for this, because this is the way we should be reacting.
If a business demands something from us (such as a mask or even just a pair of shoes) and we think it's stupid, then we don't go in the store, and they don't get our money. Everyone is satisfied.
I don't understand why people (even the usually-stolid Freepers) will play the Anti-Karen and place themselves in the store (and in conflict with store employees, other customers, and the store's management) because they have this idea that their opinion on this virus is more important than the policy of the store (and any fines that the store may face because of their behavior).
The rational thinker here understands that our own opinion on this virus means nothing next to the policy of the private enterprise we seek to do business with. (The emotional thinker, of course, will never figure it out.)
We either play by their rules or we take the ball (that would be our money) and we simply go home.
