Thanks for the first hand knowledge. The risks are part and parcel of what a bouncer signs up for, I suppose. I’m just saying a store policy violator is likely to be less difficult to handle than a drunk... or maybe not.

to HELL with any store that tries that trick on me!
I know how to deal with it so that they never attempt such krap on another customer again. It won’t be the clerk’s fault, it will be the store owners’ fault and that’s who will pay!

The state can't have it both ways. If a retailer makes the rules and says you can follow them or shop somewhere else, how does the state (Colorado) sue a baker who won't bake a cake? (especially when Colorado didn't recognize same sex marriage at the time). How does the state (Texas) arrest a hairstylist who says customers don't need a mask and if you don't like it go somewhere else?

These Democrat governors even made their diktats moot when they marched with protestors and even worse, have since said this doesn't apply to "protestors". (Even Fauxi the Clown said that as well). Any attempt to fine an individual or shut down a business is grounds for a lawsuit for deprivation under the law. Just ask Governor Andrew Nursing Home Killer (NHK) Cuomo. He already lost one.

NWAHAHAHAHAHA. Mr “just like a Nazi” accuses others of shutting down conversation. BWAHAAHa. Mr Pot I’d like to introduce you to Mr Kettle. Comparing somebody to Nazi is not designed to encourage conversation. It exists to show you have no logic to back you, but you really want a win. Well, congrats, you win. You are beneath me and we’re done, yea you.

There is an ideal solution: STOP WHINING

I stopped whining. I simply ordered a custom-made mesh mask with holes in them, like a screen door. I'll wear it for shopping, but that's it. Because I know what the next step is - mandatory vaccines and RFID chip.

These Wear a Mask rules are absurd. My local gym requires a mask because my local county requires a mask but not while Actively Exercising. One must wear a mask to enter the gym but after walking 20 feet, one enters the Active Exercising Area and one can remove the mask. What does that accomplish?

My counties rules allow one to remove a mask while eating or drinking except when “interfacing” with the staff.
- enter restaurant wearing mask.
- remove mask once seated.
- when the server arrives to get drink order you’re ‘interfacing’ so the mask goes back on. Server leaves so you can remove mask.
- server brings drinks, you’re interfacing so put the mask back on. Server leaves so you can remove mask.
- waiter arrives to take entree order, more interfacing, mask back on. waiter leaves so mask can come off.
wash, rinse, repeat.
A typical dinner would involve 10 masking/unmasking events. How stupid. Accomplishes nothing.

Mandatory vaccines are pretty unlikely. And RFID chips aren’t gonna happen. Anything they might have wanted with RFID chips they achieve better with the cellphones everybody carries.

You may look stupid without shirt & shoes, but nobody ever looked stupid without one of those idiotic masks.

There is an ideal solution: STOP WHINING. If your area has instituted mask rules follow them, stop bitching and just do it. If your region hasn’t but a business has follow it or go elsewhere, stop bitching and just do one of those. Getting confrontational and crappy with the employees is stupid.“

How long are you prepared to live this way? 6 months, a year, 10 years? Do you realize these mandates are purely a political tool that violates the first amendment and forces you to publicly display your support and compliance for totalitarian rule? When you wear a mask you are speaking out in support of totalitarian rule no matter what your personal views. Would you be ok if you were forced to wear a shirt everywhere in public that supports joe biden for president under the guise that wearing this shirt protects others? That is essentially what these mask mandates are doing.

It is so NOT a violation of the first amendment. Good lord that’s silly. Wearing a mask is following the rules. Just that simple. First of businesses I went to, now the city and county. My your “reasoning” following the road laws is support of totalitarian rule and therefore stop signs are a violations of the 1st. Sorry bud, you’re in CRAZY TOWN.

Are the mask rules absurd and totally stupid? Yup.
These compulsory masks rules are not about health at all. Oh no.
Everything is about politics and control.
It's all about tanking the economy and beating Trump in November. It also helps that compulsory masks allow the looters and arsonists and anarchists keep on destroying the country while their faces are covered to avoid detection. It's win win for BLM/Antifa and the Dems.
Nothing else matters to these deranged Dems bug taking out Trump in November.

Businesses that make the rules should be respected. If you don’t like the rules, go somewhere else. Everyone has a hill to die on. For some it’s a mole hill.
