Aside from a couple doctor appointments, I haven't worn a mask in over 6 months. If they put mandates back in place they're going to have to lock me up because I won't wear them again. I have a low tolerance for BS and have had enough.

Right there with you Amigo. This whole pile off horse crap over these last years is the biggest lie ever put to us. All by design.
This is of course on us. We became complacent and allowed these crap sacks to stay in power far to long.

OK Amigos. You knw the deal.

You keep wearing your mask and I’ll leave you alone, just like I’ll keep wearing my gun.

I think wearing masks should be mandatory for healthcare and food workers. Not due to COVID, just because people are nasty. I’m an EMT and I always wear gloves and a mask because I’m not trying to get TB or fecal matter on or in me.
Other than that though, it shouldn’t be mandatory to wear a mask.

I doubt we will ever again do a buffet style meal.
Yes people are nasty.

Had to deal with the "excuse me SIR HELLO" on a trip to Monroe County last week. Apparently they've backslid into the mask cult again since I've been gone.

I don't own a single mask anymore and haven't worn one in almost a year.

We only wear a mask when I am in the clinic/hospital or Dr Office. No getting past it in those places. Not worn one outside this in along long time.

Though I doubt it, when this ends maybe we as a society will know when to use masks as a tool and when they are not the right tool. Naaa

Exactly. I manage all the ppe equipment for my building and now all the masks that come in are reboxed now.. the warning labels before said pretty much the same thing.
I have to wear a mask and just left 2 Covid positive patients rooms.. can’t breathe in these n-95 death masks. Had to go outside to get some air. Ever since I had covid last year I fight for air at times. No fun.

Like CM, I only wear a mask for clinic appointments. They have people at every public entrance to check on that and give you a mask if you need one. However they don't even tell people how to fit it to their nose properly. Probably because those little surgical masks leak so much air anyhow.

I don't wear one in stores but if an employee asked me in a civil manner I would put one on. I keep one in my truck just in case. I have not been asked to put one on in any store here.

The only other time I wear a mask is when spraying Talstar for mosquitoes at the cabin. I spray about 1500 feet of woods/brush line. I used to use a P100 respirator mask with no problem breathing. But this year I got sick around July and my lungs took a hit. I will try spraying with an N95 mask this spring since that is all I have been able to get and see if my lungs will tolerate that by then.

Good news out of Pennsylvania. The state Supreme Court just rules the state's mask mandate for school children is unconstitutional.

Order requiring Pa. school students to wear face masks is invalid, state Supreme Court says

The high court decision upholds a Commonwealth Court ruling that found Acting Health Secretary Alison Beam lacked authority to issue the masking edict.

My wife and I went to dinner last night, and at one point I overheard the lady behind me say: "My family was very upset when I tested positive, they said I got it at a restaurant and that I should quit going out to eat or I'm going to die. The thing is, I know it couldn't have been at a restaurant because all of the waiters and waitresses wear masks."

So wrong on so many levels.

She will more likely die if she quits eating. :nuts:

How do you "know" where you got it from?
Unless you never see anyone and never go anywhere.

Well we know the wife got it from the sick student because they told her.

You might have been in contact with someone sick, but actually got sick from someone else.
Sicknesses don't come with point of origin notices.

Unless they had showed up at our house while sleeping. We haven’t seen anyone or been anywhere in over a week.
