Screw masks. Screw vaccines. Screw the media. Screw Demoncats
Understand ?
I don’t do it while driving. It fogs up my glasses and obscures my view of the road and surroundings.

Indeed. While the article states, "Since this is all about state policy regarding masks, the states are equal in weight regardless of population size" this is misleading since population density along with median age and obesity are 3 main aspects that must be included for an objective analysis. Plus the # of cases does not necessarily correspond to the of deaths. Common sense tells us that masking will reduce transmission of any airborne contagion, and or at least reduce the viral load, all other aspects being equal, but such also raise blood pressure and stress, while fostering lack of exercise, and overall has a detrimental log-term effect on health, and should only be required for close social interaction inside, while encouraging getting outside. Exactly opposite shelter-in-place.
Two giant fallacies in this analysis.
1) States without mandates at the state level often have them at the county or city level. Florida may not have a mandate but Miami. Orlando and Tampa did.
Masks may become mandatory in communities with more spread. Mandates (or a lack of them) are a reaction to Covid cases, not the cause.
Back when this whole thing started I tried, I honestly tried to wear a mask. I could not bring myself to do it. It was just so stupid. And it felt like a lie.
I have worn one when I was at the doctor. Where there was a possibility of a bacterial infection. Doc measured my blood oxygen, saw it was down in the 80s and growled at me to "Take that stupid thing off."
I just can not comply with stupidity. I know the arguments about being polite and I try usually but this was just a bridge to far.
If I get in trouble for it so be it.
I will not comply.
