And money, there's money to be made.
"In these Sentiments, Sir, I agree to this Constitution, with all its Faults, if they are such; because I think a General Government necessary for us, and there is no Form of Government but what may be a Blessing to the People if well administered; and I believe farther that this is likely to be well administered for a Course of Years, and can only end in Despotism as other Forms have done before it, when the People shall become so corrupted as to need Despotic Government, being incapable of any other.

Masks came off yesterday in our area and I was out having a look. Today also seeing many moving around still in the outdoors with masks and when I went to my favorite militaria shop, he and I were the only ones out of ten or so without masks. With all the bitchin' and pi$$in' and moanin' I'd have thought they would all be naked today. I expect there'll be people still wearing masks a year down the road. Just to be SUPER safe...
I know there's lots that can't think for themselves so unless they're forced to remove the way they were forced to wear...they'll have trouble doing it. Either way I don't care, just don't involve me. I'm not interested.
I've become rather immune to the masks. What can you do really? I see them, a small part of my brain identifies them as a complete moron and then moves on. My wife who is a much better person than I would say they may have an immune issue or something else. The counter of course is the masks do nothing for the wearer and that's been said from day one. So who are the protecting by wearing it which leads to my second response, maybe they are sick with something which is one reason the liberals made everyone wear the masks in the first place. So the sick wouldn't be stoned in the street.
I was sitting outside a grocery store the other day and about one in ten was still wearing a mask outdoors. Even when we were required to wear them indoors, I had mine off the instant I was out the door. The majority were older women, 40's+ but there were a few men. Not one of them had any qualms about jumping in their vehicle and driving home in it despite being at about 10,000 times more at risk of death for the short ride home in the car than they are from dying of Covid.
Planning to go to Gettysburg for today so that should be interesting. Always a varied cross section of people there so I expect to see many wearing masks despite the beautiful weather we are expecting for the day.
I still wear my mask in the grocery or convenience store, not outside. Use wipes on the grocery cart. Have been going to cas shoots where no one wears a mask. My family have all had both our doses of moderna but 2 weeks ago my 11 yr old granddaughter caught covid. She luckily is ok but who knows what damage it caused her that will show up later. Planning a 7 state trip later this summer and will stay with vaccinated friends. If masks don’t work why was there no 2020 flu season? Just saying. Get a shot, save your life.
