My mayor released us early from bondage on Friday, May 14th. It would have been until May 25. So now if anybody is wearing masks, it's because the stupid business requires it, not the city government. Maybe the California governor will end things early.
You're free! Not us and he's not budging. We're dug in deep until next month.

Yeah, there's a whole bunch of them living in fear. I think they're going to continue wearing masks for years after this. I read a news story today about one such man in New York who plans on wearing not one but two masks for the next five years. Covid's proved that a lot of people's cheese slid off their cracker.

They do come in handy. You can actually mumble to yourself without anyone seeing your lips move.

I'd be afraid to take off a mask in SF too. The place is a disease-ridden hellhole.

LOL! No doubt. In deep blue urban hellholes with feces and used needles everywhere, maybe there should be body armor mandates in addition to useless cloth masks.
Seeing alot of people not being scared for no reason ALWAYS IS A G00D THING!!
Are you scared when you put on your seatbelt? Or do you not wear one? Or is it just something prudent that you do? This is no different. It's not being scared, it's realizing that Covid doesn't care if you're an anti-masker or a masker. It just does what it does when it has the opportunity. While we're still in a pandemic for the time being, although it's much better for sure, it's not a problem to take that extra precaution IMO.

There are areas in San Francisco that have problems but that could be said for every city in every state across the nation. Even yours. Just letting you know in case you hadn't noticed.

Nope. I moved out of one of them (Baltimore) and where I live now (South Florida) is nothing like that crime-ridden rat-infested dump.

The science is clear that there is no public health benefit to wearing a mask after you've been vaccinated. Why are you denying the science of vaccines? What "extra precaution" are you talking about?
The only reason a vaccinated person continues to wear a mask is for their own psychological issues. Your mask isn't going to help you with that, but a mental health specialist might.

I'm confused. Which rat-infested dump are you referring to? San Francisco or Baltimore?
Don't get too pompous about it, though. You can only outrun it for so long. As with anything unhealthy, it has a way of spreading and might be coming to your city soon.

Yes, it seems 'progressiveness' tends to do that.
