Because of masks..... walking down the street today there was a group of people verbally and physically assaulting anyone with a mask on their chin. This is where we are. It’s time to lose the masks and move on with life.

END THE MASKS!

This has an air of "blame the victim" that's unnecessarily confrontational.

It's time to say no one has the right to "verbally and physically assault" anyone no matter what they are wearing, be it a mask or a MAGA hat. Woman in our area reported having another driver get her attention and when she looked his way he snapped her picture and berated her for wearing a mask when she was alone in her car. She works in a medical office, drove a few blocks on her break to get gas, then went back to work. Didn't see any reason to fuss with her mask when she was getting in and out of her car quickly, and certainly no reason to be ridiculed and have her photo taken because she had a mask on in her car.

Not sure how what I wrote can be considered confrontational.

I’m just stating what happened to me in nyc yesterday. When I got off the bus a woman told me not to go the way I was going because people were harassing people without masks. When I looked up there was a group of “youngish” people harassing both verbally and physically people wearing masks around their chin or not wearing masks at all. I saw one woman pushed for having a mask on her chin.

It’s time to end the masks because people are losing their minds over masks as you can clearly see in the video of a brawl at MIA over people not wearing masks.

And were all these people outside (in your incident when you got off the bus)?

Yes standing on the corner in a group, around 5-6 people.

What does this have to do with the Governor of Florida?. Wearing masks in airports is required by an executive order of the President.
MIA is patrolled by the Miami-Dade Police Airport District Station

I would like to know whether anyone was arrested in either of these fights and if so whether the charges were dropped. Also whether you can placed on the no fly list for fighting in the airport and if so whether that happened.

Or don’t. It’s simple. Wear them forever or start easing them now (should have been done months ago) as the good doctor said: “There’s no reason to be walking around with a mask. When you’re in the middle of an outbreak, wearing a mask might make people feel a little bit better and it might even block a droplet, but it’s not providing the perfect protection that people think that it is. And, often, there are unintended consequences — people keep fiddling with the mask and they keep touching their face.”

Reference please to anybody ever saying this. I have never heard that here or anywhere once. I have posted links that have hundreds of studies. Not one has claimed that.

I expect to continue to wear a mask for the rest of the year and through next winter when in crowded or semi crowded spaces, and possibly at home when playing cards with friends in the winter. If they keep me from catching a cold or the flu, that's great and I'm ready to give it a try. Figure if anyone ever questioned me about wearing a mask past mandatory mask wearing time I'd tell them I'm immuno-compromised because I'm having chemotherapy treatments for pancreatic cancer. That should shut them up!

People are intrusive. Don’t even answer. I’m floored by the nosiness of people questioning me on my vaccine status. Absolutely bizarre.

You do realize that was 15 months ago. More information came out and he adjusted....imagine that.

Since you follow Dr Fauci's words so much here he is a couple months later.


And again where has anyone said masks are perfect protection? Nice of you to ignore that.

I also will point out it took 10 posts for a known anti masker to start this thread that has nothing to do with masks down this path.

So his initial advice must have led to countless deaths. Imagine that. By all means, put the mask on and stay home please. Don’t leave your house, it’s not safe outside. Maybe by the 4th of July you can have a cookout. After all covid ends at 11:59pm on 7/3/2021.

also, the fight was reportedly started over masks and that’s where this post started so please go blame something else.
