Sometimes property rights have to go to the back of the bus. So to speak. People need to push back, even in ways that make them a PITA. Liberals understand this, which is why they win. Conservatives don’t want to pay the price of resistance, which is why they lose. Leftists win because they want it more. Simple as that.

Yes, that is a fair point. But one can go overboard. Leftists do that all the time, and are rightly criticized for it.

I don’t like mandatory mask policies. As I noted earlier, if a store has one I’ll go shop somewhere else. But suppose I was moved to do more? In that case, I’d protest publicly on the easement in front of the store. I’d hold a sign, and state my case to anyone who cared to listen.

And I’d organize email drives and boycotts.

But I wouldn’t go all drama queen, and make the jobs of store employees more difficult. After all, those guys didn’t set policy. Harassing them is the easy way out.

I wonder if those that are fine with businesses requiring their workers to be masked and vaccinated would also be fine with requiring all employees to work topless (both men and women).

I assume so, since they are ‘private businesses’ and there’s no law regarding dress codes (beyond food safety related).
