Indeed it has. Those who are refusing to wear masks because "muh rights!" and "freedumb!" believe that they are better than people who wear masks out of concern for other people.

LMAO ... Try to find the logic in that. No doubt you'll try to twist anti-masking somehow and make it a ... virtue.

Guess you have some decisions to make if you want to go grocery shopping, then, eh?

That I don't get. Why wait until Tuesday? What's wrong with immediately? It's not like wearing a mask in public is some sudden new idea.

And you'll be removing the brakes, headlights, taillights, turn signals, door locks, seat belts, parking brake, bumpers, windshields, etc. from your car, then? You don't happen to have any pepper spray on your key chain, eh? For that matter, why have a key chain at all - just let those babies jingle around in your pocketbook or pocket all loose like. Why take precautions to keep them all in one place? What are you afraid of?

And of course, you won't need that annoying annual health or dental check up anymore. Because ... what is there to be afraid of?

Precaution does not equal fear. I would think that would be perfectly obvious to anyone with the capacity for critical thinking.

I'm sure they'll miss you. Not.

Pretty much. If the meaning is that sheep follow without thinking, that describes the anti-maskers moreso than those who do not object to wearing a mask when in public.

I raised three kids on fish, venison, wild hog sausage, rabbits, and vegetables from the garden. As long as they hold out, I'm good.

You never responded to the point that you recently said you wanted to run over Fauci, even though you were quite horrified by squirrel-tossing.

Rest assured, we noticed.

Breaking: Lowes and Home Depot announce mask mandate.

Home Depot start date for masks is Wed July 22, 2020

I can't find anything official from Lowe's online about masks but the TV news mentioned Lowes briefly when announcing Home Depot today.

Isn't it obvious? They are communist, Marxist, fascist organizations who want to control the sheeple.

No? Have I forgotten any of the adjectives used to describe mask mandates? It's so hard to keep them all straight. LOL ...

Do you really need to ask? Most of the country is under largely teethless mask orders and in a number of stores except say Walmart I have seen people not wear masks despite this.

What a kick that is, to see that scene. It looks just like the place where my father was raised. After dinner, they let the hound dogs in, to lick the plates clean. The door was an elk hide flap. His mother once shot a cougar on the roof, that had heard him crying in his crib and was trying to get inside.

We already have a statewide mask mandate for all stores, so none of these are anything new for me. No one seems bothered in the least bit. I find the stances expressed in this forum regarding "You can't make ME wear a mask" hilarious/ludicrous at best.
