It is is akin to the 'no shoes, no shirt, no mandate' request by businesses. It isn't an ordinance from most municipalities, though they are spending ad dollars to remind you to do so.

I have a Wear Your Mask, Govners order on every door I go through of late.

So I dig the dirty damn thing out of my pocket, slide it onto my chin and a bit north, then go to the counter to pay up to the cashier wearing their mask hanging on one ear and maybe part of their chin.

It’s a complete joke and more and more are seeing it for what it is. Just that.

Walked into a store with no one in it. Young cashier came out id the back and began to put his mask back on. I looked at him and told him if he was good then I was good. He said thank you. When I checked out we talked about how miserable it was for him to have to wear it all day. Having worked retail myself in my younger years I feel for these people

We’ve been 88-91 deg and stifling humidity for weeks now. I can take heat, LOTS of it if needed, but throw in the humidity at 81 and I’m sweating coming out of the shower.

Drove by our park down the road the other day to see the river level, bunch of burly azz construction guys pouring concrete footers/foundation for a new pump station or something. Each of them, I’m sure, required to wear the mask. I couldn’t think of a more miserable deal than that.

I rolled down the window of my A/C’ed car and told them “I feel your pain”. Then floored it.






*k. Last part didn’t happen, but damn did I feel bad for them. All of them soaked through their drawers.

Completely unconstitutional. Not that much of anyone in our government cares about the constitution anymore, particularly the Dems.

Today it's wearing a mask. Tomorrow it's turning in all guns. The next day it's forbidden words and thoughts.

By all means let's go out and vote for Methusala and Jezebel.

I've never seen actual construction people wear masks. Sometimes the flagman will.

Camala would throw these people in jail:


Escambia Fire Rescue crews on scene making water rescues at the Forest Creek apartments on Wednesday, Sept 16, 2020 after Hurricane Sally.


A Pensacola law enforcement officer works to remove a fallen tree from the roadway on U.S. 98 after Hurricane Sally blasted the area on Wednesday, Sept 16, 2020 after Hurricane Sally.


Residents work together to remove fallen trees knocked over by strong winds from Hurricane Sally on Lillian Road Wednesday.


Trent Airhart wades through flood waters, Wednesday, Sept. 16, 2020, in downtown Pensacola, Fla. Hurricane Sally made landfall Wednesday near Gulf Shores, Alabama, as a Category 2 storm, pushing a surge of ocean water onto the coast and dumping torrential rain that forecasters said would cause dangerous flooding from the Florida Panhandle to Mississippi and well inland in the days ahead. Joe and the ho' say Trent's going to jail because no mask.


The residents of the Forest Creek Apartments are once again forced out of their homes due to flood waters.
According to the Communist Democrat Party, these folks' lives don't matter because they are not wearing masks. Throw 'em in jail, Camela 'n' Joe.

Study done in 2015 by our "experts" that told and are still telling us that masks work for Covid.
Mask study from 2015

Quote:Abstract
This systematic review and meta-analysis quantified the protective effect of facemasks and respirators against respiratory infections among healthcare workers. Relevant articles were retrieved from Pubmed, EMBASE, and Web of Science. Meta-analyses were conducted to calculate pooled estimates. Meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) indicated a protective effect of masks and respirators against clinical respiratory illness (CRI) (risk ratio [RR] = 0.59; 95% confidence interval [CI]:0.46-0.77) and influenza-like illness (ILI) (RR = 0.34; 95% CI:0.14-0.82). Compared to masks, N95 respirators conferred superior protection against CRI (RR = 0.47; 95% CI: 0.36-0.62) and laboratory-confirmed bacterial (RR = 0.46; 95% CI: 0.34-0.62), but not viral infections or ILI. Meta-analysis of observational studies provided evidence of a protective effect of masks (OR = 0.13; 95% CI: 0.03-0.62) and respirators (OR = 0.12; 95% CI: 0.06-0.26) against severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). This systematic review and meta-analysis supports the use of respiratory protection. However, the existing evidence is sparse and findings are inconsistent within and across studies. Multicentre RCTs with standardized protocols conducted outside epidemic periods would help to clarify the circumstances under which the use of masks or respirators is most warranted.

Viruses are too small to be stopped by simple masks. As the studies in the past have stated, wearing masks will give people a false since of protection from disease and may actually increase cases. As was the case in my state of Mississippi. Mask mandate put into effect on July and 2-3 weeks later we had by far the highest number of cases for weeks.
Here is an easier to read summary of the conclusions of the study.
Easier to read version of the study.

Quote:The widespread use of cloth masks by healthcare workers may actually put them at increased risk of respiratory illness and viral infections and their global use should be discouraged, according to a UNSW study.

But they are so pretty when I wear my mask shopping at the boutique.

Kamala's had something in her face most of her adult life. She just doesn't want to be the only one.

With the polls being as close as they are this far out has got to be scaring the BeJesus out of the Dems. Every poll this far out in '16 was double digits for Clinton. Didn't get close until the week prior to the election.

Well, there's a reason Biden is doubling up on his lawyers. IMO, the plan is to win this thing after the election.

I’ve never been one to wish ill on anyone but I just don’t like this Kamala broad. The thought of her close to the most powerful office in the country should cause every freedom loving American to take notice.

It's coming. Take it to the bank. Are you prepared?

They’ve learned a lot since Gore failed to steal the Presidency in litigation. Given their support of anarchy because of their hatred, I sadly don’t put anything beyond the pale of my former party.

Good to hear. I'm thinking of getting a new shotgun strictly for home defense. Anyone have a suggestion?

Make sure it is pump action, the sound of the pump sliding will freeze a criminal in his tracks. I know a 12 gauge is probably standard, but really a pistol grip 20 gauge in the house is all you need.

Oh yeah on the pump action. The wife and I already agree on that one just for the reasons you stated.
