Masks are here to stay... businesses are going to be terrified of getting sued by the “BUT, STOP SPREADING YER GERMZ!!!1!1!1” crowd, even well after Coronavirus daily deaths drop down to a point where they can be considered “in the noise”.

I wear one, it’s not a big deal.

I always wear mine but rarely go out. I lean to the left. I feel the states need to reopen faster than they have been. We could've stopped this thing when there were only 15 known with covid if testing and tracing had been a priority.

At this point, whatever happens will be tragic.

Mask wearer at all times(except home) and no real political affiliation. Btw, don't associate mask wearers with a political party. I have been out to the grocery stores and i see not just whites, but many blacks, asians, and hispanic not wearing masks too. Also today i was at H.E.B and saw a surprising # of elderly folks not wearing masks. This one lady was in her mobile grocery cart and coughing in my aisle....boy did i make a quick dash to the other aisle.

Yes, I do before entering a store. I am an Independent (I voted for neither candidate in 2016). I do not wear one outside because we have rural acreage. I also wash my hands more frequently and use hand sanitizer after leaving a store.

I think it's unhealthy for society. We should have faces.

"And the Home Of the Brave"

I don't think they'll be terrified. I think you got the wrong country.

Socially speaking I find someone else wearing a mask to be an assault.

If masks become the norm I'll probably become more of a hermit than I already am. My industry is probably closed for another 6-12 months minimum so no work for me either. I just hate those flippin things and they will NEVER be the 'new normal' for me.

They want us to be emotionally disconnected zombies.
