I stopped wearing a mask outside a long time ago. I only wear a mask if I'm in a busy place like a supermarket, out of courtesy.
Same here. I didnt wear one outdoors during the height of it. Streets and park was mostly empty. I got yelled at a few months ago also, while on a bike. Was at a red light, a woman yards away was yelling how I need a mask because I am going to kill people.
I was still living in NYC and on a bike. I said "lady Im biking in NYC with no one around me. MY chances of dying are 3 times higher on this road then Covid."
I told my story way back when it happened in 2020.
We took the kids fishing at Clove Lakes Park around May I guess. It was nice out but not summer. As we are walking the path, so J-O says to me (in front of them) "Real nice dad you are showing them not to wear masks." He tried to keep walking with his chest all puffed up, not expecting me to lose my head on him. Well he thought wrong. He ended up getting a run in that day. Honestly I wish he stood his ground. I wanted to teach my kids a lesson that day by beating down a loser who can't keep their nonsense to themselves.
Just watched the news that said argument started in a bodega and spilled outside
How did this lady know that the teenager is not already vaccinated? (most likely she is )
The people who are paranoid can wear 100 masks.
I wear a mask when I want to and when I don't see the need I don't.
We will be paying for this in the next 10 years with the entire mental health effect of the lockdown and the entire hysteria surrounding this pandemic.
We see many people are already on the edge and loosing their minds
The lady needs to buy a hazmat suit and walk around in. She can only be responsible for herself. Policing other people's body is a futile task.
Now I rarely (not ever!!) side with a violent aggressor, BUT, BUT! if the story is true this lady asked to be punched in the face. The teenager was outside, under god's sky, in the wide open air, and the lady saw it fit to demand that she put on a mask.
Unless the teenager was coughing up a storm towards her (which I am sure the lady would have said that) why would anyone demand that some random stranger in the streets put on a mask?
FAUCI really made many super paranoid.
Stupid to ask a stranger to wear a mask.
Stupider and criminal to assault a person who asks you to wear a mask.
Yeah but Karen learned a lesson for life.
Good stuff right there.
People are angry and frustrated and many have lost a lot since this started. That can make anyone more prone to aggression and violence. Not a good time to start up trouble with strangers.
On the news it definitely looks like it happened INSIDE the bodega and the lady (who seemed like she was with a kid) was hit on her way out the store. I'm personally not telling anybody about a mask, not my job. But assaulting someone over is just dumb.
