I am a senior and I refuse to wear the damn mask, I was forced at Costco to get in the store I feel like all of our citizens look like they are living in China running around in masks!! It is a reminder of FEAR!!
umm, my bad! XD
I too am senior (69) and I too rarely wear a mask and when I do it's usually because I'm forced to. I suspect that it is the FEAR factor more than anything else driving this level of fear/panic and hysteria. Fear is a powerful weapon when trying to control someone or get someone to do something they normally would not otherwise do.
I needed printer ink today so I went to Office Max. No mask needed, but they didn’t have the ink. The clerk said it was a popular item. I agreed but I was wondering if their store manager couldn’t plan properly or if all their other stores were also out because of the circumstances we are in. So I went to Costco. I didn’t have a mask and couldn’t get in. Ok. Then I went to Target and asked if they had masks. The helper showed me where they were and I got a pack of ten one-size-fits-all. I asked her if they had printer ink (you can tell I don’t shop there much) and she said the printer ink was back by the electronics. They had what I needed. I went to self check-out and was soon on my way. Through all of this, I didn’t wear a mask.
My wife and I have not ever worn masks except at Costco since they forced masks about two weeks ago.
We only have gas masks (P-100) and we enjoy the looks we get.
