    Look I understand people not wanting to wear masks. But the people in the high risk groups can die from it.

    Who wants that on their conscious.

    So wear a mask preferably the Kn -95 or the 3M N-95.

    Until this pandemic is under control.

    Yes, I have an underlying health condition that places me in an at risk group for COVID-19. Yes, my wife has an underlying health condition that places her in an at risk group for COVID-19. Yes, we both have either friends or co-workers that have either died from COVID-19, or have been hospitalized from COVID-19. Yes, my business has lost about 50 percent of its revenue from COVID-19...that is why we follow the social distancing, mask, and hand washing protocols. But we understand that NO ONE can guarantee anyone that they will not die from anything tomorrow, let alone COVID-19.

    Does it bug the shit out of me when I see someone that does not follow the protocols? Of course it does, but in the US it used to be that the rights of the individual were superior to the rights of the collective and that is no longer the case. Now the US is full of a bunch of scared little bitches that think they are entitled to a risk free life with a guarantee that they won't get sick or die at the expense of personal liberty...and that will ultimately be the demise of the US's representative republic.

    Anyone wishing to criticize me for defending personal liberty can kiss my ass...we get no guarantees in life except death and taxes. I got no guarantee I would come home at night when I wore the uniform, or after my military service when I wore the badge and the gun for 25 years. Some things are more important than you are, so butch up little Nancies, I'm sick to death of all the caterwauling.

    DEFUND THE MEDIA!!! Not the police! Getting a t-shirt made with that hopefully soon.

    Agree with you wholeheartedly and also with Don, that these should be decisions based upon science; not politicized but NOTHING will prevent that in today's day and climate.

    We enter a world of risks from the day we are born. It is up to us, society, AND our government to WEIGH the factors in making proper or prudent decisions for all citizens of our country and you, for YOUR family. There are no guarantees in life...........and LIFE is definitely NOT guaranteed for any specific time. Weigh the risks and make your own decisions. No black and white here whatsoever.

    Don if your concerned about the masks ask any Dr about it.

    The exact model is KN-95.
    It technically a respirator.

    If you want it.

    They are harder to breath in then the masks that don’t do anything.

    Also the only people that I will work something out with for masks is Norm or Don only.

    I’m not in the mask business.
    Just saw that Don was concerned so that’s why I offered.

    I send you a message later don.

    You know, I live very far from the US but Im genuinely worried about everything thats happening over there. I cant believe there are people at high levels of government publicly saying that cities without police would be like "suburbs". Is that actually happening?? Some of the things that I read and see that are happening over there just look straight out of a science fiction movie.

    I've ranted enough today, so I'll pass on the rant for defunding the police. It would be a waste of everyone's time and energy anyway because I'm postive everyone knows where I stand. You are all welcome in advance! ;-)

    They sell KN95 masks in my drug store. The specs allow additional self protection. If I was in a serious hot spot, I wouldn't leave my home. If I did, I would consider a KN95, or perhaps a six foot condom. A normal mask is generally good enough Make certain it seals well. I had one mask that fogged up my glasses every time I exhaled. Clearly this isn't effective.

    I would have lost the wager. I would have gone astray on the 6 foot condom. I was thinking of this
