I'm personally very much rooting for the store.

Neither prescription nor placard required in Pennsylvania.

Just the opposite.

The Governor’s order stated that “no documentation” was needed for those claiming a medical exemption.

Oh man... that was me a few weeks ago!

The cashier even had a tag that said “hearing impaired”and she looked miserable. I even said “oh sorry” but with the mask on.. nothing.

I signed to her but my wife corrected me.. I gave a ridiculous sign. She corrected it though. I still felt like a fool.

“Disabilities?” But they’ve been saying that they, the vulnerable folks, should stay at home and let the younger folks do the running around and shopping. Can’t they make up their minds?

then lets force the government to order Giant Eagle to open a store right next door.
= = = = = = = = = = = = = =

Already tried that, think Restaurants and the ‘no smoking’ that started with a ‘little space’ and grew into nothing in the building.

Fine - to a point with the BAD PART being I can’t open a Restaurant or rent a plan and sell tickets in a SMOKING aircraft/bus/motel/restaurant....

They surely have come a long way from when that stupid sign on the airplane was moved to ‘separate’ smokers from non smokers....

If you have too much trouble breathing to be out in crowds, stay home and let the free and young people do the shopping. —Flubros

I have the solution for that. Speak more loudly and slowly. Make up your own signs. Be creative! I do it all the time with people who don't understand English. Works great! ;)

Not HIPPA, Americans With Disabilities Act the same act which prohibits asking for proof a mutt is a Service Dog prohibits asking what a persons disability is.

Thank you for the card.
I have a huge problem with wearing a mask.

The government already does that. That is why the lawsuits are an option. The store is being sued under the ADA. You know the law the government passed.

ADA allows accommodations. But standing outside the facility will not be included.

That would be like the store saying to someone in a wheelchair that their isles are too small and someone will shop for them as they wait outside.

Or a hotel not installing the lifts for guest and instead instituting a policy of an employee standing over the guest with a water hose to simulate swimming.

So, you assert your right to choose for yourself.
Yet, you are fine for others to choose “the mask” for you.

Costco enacted this bull sh*t I have not gone there and will not renew my membership. Two can play that game.

That's what we have to do. I refuse to go to Walmart now. The last time I went was about 4 to 6 weeks ago. They had speakers in the parking lot instructing how to social distance, wear masks, etc. It was like a scene out of 1984. They are so deep in bed with the ChiComs it is sickening. I don't want their cheap Chinese crap. This past Wednesday I dropped Comcast and went with Verizon for Internet. (No cable channels with either of them.) I refuse to support Comcrap's media properties. Unfortunately Verizon is just the lesser of two evils. They own Yahoo, but not much more from what I can tell.

Now I'm trying my best to rid myself of Google. That's hard to do. I have an Android phone, so the OS is from Google. But I don't use gmail, search or any Google services. I setup a new email acct with Protonmail.com and added their VPN service. I use DuckDuckGo for search, and Brave for a browser. Brave has a Tor browser built-in. All my right-wing deplorable activities are encrypted end to end, jumps between servers and are ad free. I cut the cord on Facebook and Twitter years ago. I'd love to cut the cord from Microsoft, but can't due to business.

No. A mask is a courtesy, that costs nothing and has no real side effects and might slow the spread of this and other infections. Again, it is a free country - private business can do what they want. Do you have a mask allergy or something? You are fine with spraying droplets all over people trying to buy food?

Your line (style) of questioning shows absolutely no respect for my Constitutional rights.
I am a freeman, able to choose my own fate.
You are unAmerican.

Your questions are the equivalent of Mussolini’s Cheka asking, “What have you got hide?”

May your chains rest upon you lightly.

Costco is the only place where I am that forces people to wear those BS masks...
