Should I raise my voice at them and tell them their clothes wreak in the
same manner the people raised their voice at this mask less person?

Drinking alcohol,smoking cigarettes and shooting dope is illegal
and can eventually kill you...........
yet I always run into folks drunk,stoned or high on trains.
Bunch of hypocrites........

Is there a sign posted " No masks means No entry on trains? "
If there are why aren't they being enforced?

No one person has the right to tell him what to do.
It is not my LAW. It is not your LAW. It is not the LAW.

People should mind their own Flock&Business.
Yeah I agree I'm not wasting my energy for this nonsense I'll just get up and move. People nowadays feel they have the authority to tell others what to do

Eventually those of us who get vaccinated and have been wearing masks will get us to herd immunity.

The bad part is those antivaxers and non mask wearers will get their pathetic butts dragged across the finish line and able to resume normal lives by the rest of us who took the risk and discomfort.

To me it is no different then the view vets had of draft dodgers who just reap the benefits others put themselves at risk for.

At least I can say I was part of the solution and not part of the problem

This virus is very analogous to the the flu, for those not inoculated it will keep peaking in the fall and winter and wane in the spring to nothing in the summer. I plan on taking a Pfizer booster myself as a prophylactic once every year

The difference though is that the flu is very contagious, especially through kids ..we all get flu equally , it has no age curve ... once we have herd immunity it will be a lot more difficult to transmit to those who were not vaccinated, thanks to those who were

That’s your right ....

Others will do the dirty work for those who don’t .we hopefully will be achieving herd immunity so we can all have a normal life.

There are always going to be those in life who just go along for the ride in all aspects of life , if they can riding on the coattails of others

Don't ascribe your motivations to other people.
