You are giving up NO liberties by wearing a goddamn mask and thinking about other people besides yourselves.
You wear pants in public, right? And a seatbelt? WHY is a fucking mask such an issue? ARGH!!!!

Don't lecture me honey....
I have been wearing a mask (3M N95 - I have a pile of them) since the first advisory. I am willing to bet I do FAR less social interaction with other people than 90 percent of the people on this board.
We didn't leave the farm for almost 2 months - and didn't need to.
......
We have a legislature.
They need to make the laws.
Not the Governor.
If.she can't convince the legislature to do what is right for the state - she needs to get the hell out of office and let someone who can to do the job.
NOT rule by fiat...

Don't call me honey, and no need to talk down to me. I am not lecturing you or claiming you personally don't wear a mask or self isolate.
This is something I see as semantics. You don't. We don't agree. I am glad you explained your stance, but you didn't need to speak that way to me. Being civil when disagreeing seems to be a lost art.

When you say "You are not giving up any liberties" and "You wear pants" (ect) I have to assume you ARE addressing me - and I take exception to such accusations.
And I will say so.
