I moved here from UK during Covid.

I used to be on facebook and kept in touch with guys back there.

I remember, the day after getting my first CCW - donning a mask and checking my CZ75 and spare mag were concealed before popping into the bank. I did post it and commented on the irony of it.

Sure do. I told a bank employee that I never thought I’d be required to wear a mask in a bank. She said they weren’t thrilled about it but so far they haven’t had any problems. Said it’s only a matter of time

The same mask that OSHA requires me to wear at work (for certain jobs), anyway?

I'm not lining up for what is essentially a beta test of a vaccine.

If you watched the live streams of various "peaceful protests" from last year, you could see that the morons eventually figured out that respirators come in handy when the air quality is... less than ideal.  It was amazing how slowly they seemed to figure it out, though.  Maybe they just couldn't figure out where to buy them, since 'occupational safety equipment' is something people tend to learn about by having a job.

I think the mask "mandates" are bullshit, but if I were to attend an anti-left event/protest I will wear a mask due to the left's propensity for doxxing.

A year ago, if I had walked into Kroger to buy groceries while wearing a half face respirator, I would have expected the cops to be called, or at least be tossed out of the store.  Since the beginning of April, I haven't set foot in a store without wearing a half face respirator, and nobody has said a word to me about it.  I've even seen a few posts about people wearing surplus gas masks in stores, with nothing more than a few odd looks.

Think of it as something like an open carry protest, where even the democrats can see the blatant hypocrisy if they dare to suggest that your behavior is the slightest bit out of the ordinary.

When I was a kid, all the bad guys wore masks.
In the westerns, the guys with the black hats always wore a hankerchief covering their face.
The bank robbers and muggers always had on ski masks
The strong arm bandits wore stockings over their faces.

It it was a few months back I found myself standing in a bank...ski hat, sun glasses, mask, and a loaded sidearm in my holster....I thought to myself that 10 month prior that kinda thing could get a guy shot. Now...it's perfectly normal.

My liberal 20 yr old SIL was visiting for the holidays.
She accompanied me on a trip to a Rural King...in a rural area.

About only half of the people were wearing masks I guess, because she kept commenting on it

I tried to ignore her little comments while I searched wiper blades and winter weight bar oil, etc... but she did have a good one:

SIL: I don't understand why ugly people WOULDN'T wear a mask, I mean, don't they want to hide their ugly faces?

Me: That's actually a good point.



(My SIL is kinda ugly FWIW)

I'm not joking.  You should all embrace masks.  The anonymity is great.  I hope the mask thing stays for a long time.  

There was a time, not long ago, that wearing masks was criminal.

You don't have to do it all of the time, but remember there are times it will be helpful.  Blending in to a sea of people is nice.  Keep one with you at all times, though.

It will be helpful in the times to come.

If you go to a rally/protest, masks should be considered mandatory.  No exceptions, moving forward.  Wear them from the time you arrive until the time you leave.  Don't take them off.

Just an opinion and something for the non-masker crowd (no judgement) to think about.  

Remember, many of you are considered domestic terrorists now.

I cover past the tops of my ears with a shemagh in coyote tan.  I often wear sunglasses but they tend to fog so I have to breathe through my mouth and blow downward.

Also putting a smooth pebble in alternating shoes for the gait recognition.

I act suspicious in the grocery stores and cough frequently as well.  They put the signs up, so F them.  Haven't taken the 5 finger discount yet, but am thinking about it.

Please keep us informed.

Way back - in UK - while waiting for a place on a training course, expected to be about 12 months.......I decided to drive a double decker bus in NW London.

Pull up to bus stop. Lady in full burka / niquab / dish dash boards. Holds up her bus pass. The photo is of someone wearing a full burka / niquab / dish dash

I politely refused to accept it. I was told I was racist. I tried to explain that the purpose of the pic was to confirm it was her pass.

At this point the lady who had accused me of racism told me I was a dirty Irish cnut

Passengers on bus get irate and eject her. I carried on. Buses arrive on that route every 8 mins during rush hour. In the canteen later, I discover she was refused entry to 5 buses before giving up.

The banks here won't let you in if you don't have a mask on.

TN has not had a statewide mask mandate throughout this whole farce.

Many cities and counties have, though. Thankfully, my county is not one of them.
