Experts also said to hide under your desk to protect against a nuclear bomb.

When EVERYTHING is political, NOTHING is political.

When EVERYTHING is racist, NOTHING is racist.

The Socialist Democrats over-played their hand on this one, too, as always.

LIBERATE AMERICA! Just let this stupidity END, already!

I didn't like it at first, and don't wear one where not required, but when I do, I have fun with it....
I like this one

“Experts.” Right. I can find “experts” on both side of this issue.

The ONLY reason why people wear a mask: “Everyone knows you should. It’s on TV and the Internet!”

And don’t forget their food pyramid. Experts brought us that bit of psuedo wisdom also.

If masks are to be mandated by law, then there must be standards.

What are the design specifications for compliant masks?

Who enforces the law?

What are the penalties?

Who will conduct the prosecutions?

Is guilt assigned without due process?

The boxes of disposable facemasks we buy at the store has this warning on the back: Not for use in healthcare settings.

Why I oppose the mask mandate: I’m literate.

“People who claim it’s their right to avoid wearing a mask are misunderstanding rights”

Wonderful to get lectures on what our rights are from some Indian Import-A-Doc alien.

I do not wear a mask. I had the Chinese flu in January. I am 71 years old and I lived through the flu. I do not see any one wearing a mask that will stop viruses.

It is nothing more than political theater. Symbolism over substance once again. Wear the mask as a symbol of conformity, a symbol of your obedience to the state - nothing more. Politics over science.

I have studied the CDC website. Clearly it says that if you are not symptomatic it is unlikely that you can spread it unless you share utensils, eat or drink after someone, or be withing 6 feet of them for more than 15 minutes at a time. Whether you wear a mask or not will make no difference if you do the things above. If you avoid doing them you will not get it whether or not you wear a mask.

It has become hijab, a show of compliance with social rules, NOT a health matter.
That’s demonstrated by:
* face masks with zippers for musicians
* demands to wear it when you’re in a teleconference
* demands to wear it alone on a walk
* discussion on making you wear it when alone in your yard
