Correct. I don't like the damn masks either, but the flight attendants are just trying to do a job they are ordered to do and earn an honest living. I tend to eat and drink very slowly on flights for that reason.

If I get reminded to remask, I just say "sorry" and meekly comply.

I don't throw a hissy fit even though I am certainly big enough to beat up darn near any flight attendant.

In addition to what you said, these jag-offs also need to be put on a flight ban list ranging from a minimum of one year to lifetime for the more serious injuries.

I agree as well.

I think the mask mandates are a sham and infringement on personal liberty.

That said, I have a choice, and one choice is to not go somewhere where a mask mandate applies. (Full disclosure: I work in healthcare, so I wear one anytime I am in the building (as mandated) but that is what I do, even if all it does is provide psychological comfort for frightened patients-and if it reduces the chance of someone, somewhere, somehow being infected by .0000001%, I’ll do it. People don’t go to hospitals to get sick.)

But if I go to a store and there is a sign, I’ll put one on, or...not go in the store. Sometimes I go in, and the people working there may not have masks, and if they don’t, I’ll take mine off. But I keep in mind the person is often just someone trying to make a living, they don’t want to be a mask nazi, but...they may work for a leftist boss who would fire them for not enforcing it.

So I wear one for those situations.

As for air travel-as others have opined, it isn’t just you. It is all the other people on the plane who may be a military personnel flying home for long anticipated leave, or someone flying to see a loved one before they pass on.

And that woman should be banned from flying for life, locked up, and serve real time for assault. That physical assault had nothing to do with personal liberty and everything to do with immaturity and criminal lack of control.

“earn an honest living.”

Enforcing masks is not honest.
