Look at the folks whining about not staying shut down. They dont want to go back to work. I was looking at WAFB articles and i could see a majority of the ones not wanting Louisiana to open back up.

I was in North Beach in San Fran today and it looked like everyone just said frick it. The restaurants had packed patios, and everyone was sitting at the tables and drinking.

Very few masks and even the parks were packed with little social distancing.


Same here in Santa Barbara. People have been throwing down on the beaches and it’s been glorious.

Who else is loving watching the Stay Home crowd melt? by TulaneLSU
Friend,

I gladly wear a mask in public now. It’s not for me. The last thing I want any part in is making someone’s parent or grandparent or friend with immunodeficiency get this disease. If wearing a mask helps in that end, good.

Yours,
TulaneLSU


Of all the people I came across today wearing a mask, which primarily were workers in furniture stores and two restaurants, I’d say probably no more than about 20% were actually wearing the mask properly. The rest had them under their nose which does nothing other than make the wearer look like a complete imbecile.

Not yet, but he did ask me to come him with for some goat cheese at a local organic farm. Maybe that’s the equivalent

I shite you not, some fella at a BBQ joint here in Monroe had a sweatband around his mouth. A black Nike sweatband. Only around his mouth.

Serving sides like a mofo though, baked beans and green beans were delicious. Line out the door, mostly non-mask wearers. But they were spaced out, so out the door was probably about 20-25 people, most.

I sat outside, ate like a king, and just observed the foolishness.

Most masks the way they are worn are no more than repositories for disease. I’d say on average mask wearing has increased the mortality rate.

I don't understand compromised people who go out in public.


I have major health issues and have managed to not go out at all. I get produce, meat, grocery store items, and prescriptions without going into a store. I either do delivery, curbside, or drive thru. In the few instances I have wanted something family or friends (who are essential and go out anyway) were happy to do carport drop off. The world should never have shut down or had to wear masks. If you are truly compromised you know it and keep yourself at home. I would never trust everyone else to keep me safe.


***FYI I am the same way in flu season, don't go to hospitals to visit people, don't allow sick people near me if I am aware they are sick, stay away from places children congregate....etc, etc,etc so this is not a new concept to me or anyone else who has legitimate issues.

Remember the joke about “I’m from the federal government and I’m here to help you”?

When did we decide to blindly follow the “authorities”? Especially when they keep telling us things that seem to be such complete bullshite?

I don't see anybody "melting" on either side. That's just how you want to view it.

I’d say, on average, you’re dumber than the typical human. I’m pretty sure if a vulnerable person is taking an effort to wear a mask in public because they are scared, they are washing their face masks

I have to admit it is pretty funny and depressing at the same time. During this I have seen some epic rants and meltdowns on social media and some of them are hysterical. The depressing part is how weak the mindset of many Americans are in particular my generation.

More and more businesses are requiring it, baw. Might want to warm up on that mask before heading out from behind the keyboard. I'm not saying its the right thing, but it's each businesses right to refuse service to you if you refuse.

Is this strictly a LA thing cuz out of the masks wearers I encounter its probably less than 1/100. Common sense tells me this is made up with 90% of the OT being experts on wearing masks.

I don’t wear one where not required
