Im going to the park once a day now that I work from home and not wearing a mask. It was stated it is only for entering essential businesses

No no, we get the fact that you don't want to wear a mask. You've made that clear. What I don't understand is why? What is the upside to that? Are you trying to get infected? Or are you just not very bright and don't understand how this virus spreads? Like, why?

I want to use for important things like supermarket shopping and buying medicine. When I sit in the park on a nice day I want to do it in a normal way and not with a mask

Just returned from a long walk on this beautiful day and noted about a third of my fellow pedestrians were not wearing masks. Of those, about 3/4 were 20-somethings. I find it dumb, given we have an extremely contagious virus all around. I also find it selfish, in that they might be asymptotic and passing the virus along to others.

Please wear a mask next time you’re out so I don’t have to cross the street to avoid you. All of us want to enjoy the park “in a normal way and not with a mask” one day. The rules are meant to get us there.

And lest there be doubt, masks are not just for entering essential businesses:

“During a COVID-19 press briefing today Governor Tom Wolf recommended that all Pennsylvanians wear a mask any time they leave their homes . . .”

Ain't nothing normal Bro. You should't do "normal" things in "seriously abnormal" situations. That's just stupid.

If any person refuses to wear a mask and they get the virus, then to be honest, I can't be concerned about that.

If they won't protect themselves by doing a simple thing such as wearing a mask -- I really don't care if they get sick or not. Let's just hope they don't get anyone elsesick.

I'm not going to argue with or even try to persuade someone to protect themselves. I'm done with that.

I'm not going to say, well, "Get sick and die then." But I'm going to be upset if the person gets sick, either.

What's annoying the hell out of me is everyone so happy to be abnormal

If you read the openinge of Gov Wolf’s official website, which I provided a handy link to, you’ll read otherwise. Let me repeat the opening sentence:

“During a COVID-19 press briefing today Governor Tom Wolf recommended that all Pennsylvanians wear a mask any time they leave their homes . . .”

We all want to enjoy our world without masks. Most of us are making a minor sacrifice now so that we can get there sooner. But go ahead and catch the virus or spread it and draw this whole thing out further. You seem entitled.

Its uncomfortable and I prefer to wear it when I am inside the market or pharmacy. I refuse to match the mask with my outfit like some fools are doing
