It’s time to start resisting and going in public sans mask.

I know that’s easy for me to say because I’m in a Texas county where though most everyone wears them, they won’t hassle you.

But it’s time to start ditching the masks, folks. Unless someone else has a better plan to start reclaiming sanity and freedom....

“I’m in a Texas county where though most everyone wears them, they won’t hassle you.”

There are no Mask Fanatics in your area too.
I have not found any in area also.

Should we force people to ditch their mask in the name of sanity and freedom?

Here in the Northeast, you still get the ugly frowns from people (usually older women) when you go maskless in public - and I'm talking out on the street! But more and more people are going maskless outside.

You still can't go into a grocery store or other retail outlet around here without one or they will swoop down on you in a heartbeat (I'm talking the employees). But I understand their motivation. Businesses stand to get heavily fined - or even closed down - by the government for allowing customers to not have masks. So I don't want to cause hassles for anybody and so I respect the businesses that I frequent and wear the stupid thing as mandated by law.

This nonsense can't end too soon.

Start? I haven't worn a mask since this whole pandemic thing started. I walk into my local grocery store, drugstore and hardware store without a mask and no one has ever said a word to me about it.

Having work in a hospital for 20 years, I know that the masks worn by medical professionals are for protecting them from larger germs and bacteria, not inert submicroscopic viruses that are smaller than the fabric openings in masks.

Masks do squat-diddley against this virus. It's all about control of the population.

The governor of Indiana tried to make it a criminal offense for not wearing a mask in public until public pushback and the state's attorney general saying he couldn't do that. Mini-tyrannt in training. Wannabe dictator.

But I agree. It is time for those who have accepted the government's mask requirements to realize we still live in a free country. We have constitutional rights. I have chosen to stand up for mine and not follow the political whims of these ignorant politicians.

I’m in Chicago and I’ve been walking around since March with no mask on except when I have to wear one to go in a store or something. Nobody’s hassled me. Get a few idiots walking out into the middle of the street to avoid me, but that’s not a hassle to me!
