It’s time —-no, it’s PAST time—-to start actively confronting people who are helping destroy our liberty by acquiescing to masking “mandates”.

These are meek lemmings who are afraid of their own shadows. Start giving them hell.

Well, I have worn a mask in places like DMV, where you can’t really shop elsewhere. I also keep a ratty old blue mask with the two white layers removed in my shirt pocket, and if a store employee asks me politely to put it on, I will. It’s their store.

However, if the employee is the least bit rude or overbearing about it, I’ll leave immediately and not go back. They can reshelve what’s in my cart or not, up to them.

The last person who told me to step back because I was not wearing a mask got an earful from me.

I don’t always agree with Rand, he’s one of the most solid Senators we have.

I have been doing my best to be non-compliant with the pandemic-con since it began.

Do you think he is presidential material or would you rather keep him in the senate and perhaps become a chairman of a committee?

I do wear masks. Mostly to keep the endless self-righteous superiors off my back.

I prefer the paper pleated masks.

BUT I bought some cloth masks with very aggravating messages on them and wear them every chance I get.

First was the MAGA before the election. I only got 3 comments - all women in different places - saying they like my mask.

Now I’m cycling on my APPEASING THE SHEEP mask (sheep with masked face).

I’ll be alternating them. OT1H I appease the sheep, OTOH I tick them off.

I saw two people today who were wearing two masks...a mask covering a mask.

The masking thing is beyond ridiculous.

I see people walking down the street alone with a mask on.

See them driving, walking from the cars to the store, you name it, mask dutifully in place.

I do not put the mask on until I actually step foot in the door and it’s so loose and poor fitting that I know it’s not doing any good.

But makes for a more peaceful trip to get groceries.

When we get the vaccine hopefully we can all be free of these encumbrances


If it was that simple. Rand gives the answer here, when we get the vaccine hopefully we can all be free of these encumbrances. I’ve stopped wearing masks when meeting customers outside. But overall until the vaccine hits, the mask nazis are going to be very hard to push back on.

NOT IMPRESSED.
We need to push back against a hell of a lot more than covid restrictions.
More worthless talk from a member of Club Senate.

I walk in without a mask, the mask warden says “YOU MUST WEAR A MASK!”.
I reply, “You must not want me to spend any money here.”
I walk out and spend my money elsewhere. Rinse and repeat.
I’ve conditioned two big box stores not to challenge me anymore.

I like NH’s mask guidelines, especially down near the bottom where the exceptions are.

How about if you don’t feel safe wear a mask or stay home and just leave the rest of us be?
