Opposite of that sign says "usps ok, thrifty white ok, appointments ok, wearing mask ok otherwise......CLOSED It's her business, should she not have the right to be open in the manner she chooses?

Just in April alone employers shed 20.5M jobs but let's keep parroting masks, testing, flatten the curve, save lives and shelter in place. Other than our friends at 1310 knox boycotting businesses that are requiring guests to wear them, how do masks contribute to unemployment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frozen4sioux Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Ill say this about masks..... Ill back any policy that requires facecoverings that are infused with listerine. Good lord, do people even brush there damn teeth anymore? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also feel if someone shares their opinion on radio, tv or print, someone else can freely have their own opinion about it. You could just as easily not read his response. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redneksioux Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 It sure is a shameful world when we've got people trying to shame businesses that are doing their part to protect themselves and the community. Not retired yet! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frozen4sioux Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 So what % of the community am I protecting wearing a 0% effective cloth mask? As 98% of the mask wearing population is doing. It's a hallow pointless virtue signal that has ZERO effect on any positive societal aspect. Its just another sign of how easy it is to control a poorly educated population. Do this pointless act, or you are a bad person. If the mask thing is a real benefit, then there has to be a requirement of an effective mask. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha. I'll be consistent with it as long as it's not putting people's lives in danger. How many other employers in town operate like LM was? Taco Bell? I truly feel for the people that need to put up with that. And with our "new normal" these horrible decisions affect all of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keikla gave some perfectly fine direct reasons she could be operating the way she is. Maybe she has an at risk family member? Maybe she has a spouse that works in a skilled nursing facility or hospital. Or maybe she just wants to make the right decision. No clue who she is, don't like cats myself, but I applaud her.

Sorry I'm not sure what facebook meme you got your info from but that cloth mask is IN FACT useless for both parties from aerosol spread of normal breathing and speaking * It MAY stop a percentage of large globlets but unless you're a shitforbrains idiot you dont sneeze at people like you're trying to pant them with nose jizz. So to recap, cloth mask 0% effective for both parties breathing amd speaking, (actually more dangerous for the wearer in contracting a million other germs). May stop a small percentage of snot projectile from someone sneezing or coughing like a moron in public while wearing. Telling healthy people they are Orange Man badlike for not wearing a face pantie in public is absurdly unintelligent. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might want to tell the hospitals and even the department of health that non n95 masks are non-effective. Glad you were able to uncover such.

UNDlaw80 Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 My wife is Romanian, we visit there regularly. Returning home always illuminates how regulated American life is. A permit is required for this, no parking here, a license is needed for that, no boobies on TV, don't go over the limit, you need registration for that, city approval required for this, wanna start a business?...here's mounds of regulation for you, etc. etc. etc, And I haven't even started on privacy issues. In light of all this ridiculous and all-encompassing restrictive nonsense (that people rarely question), the notion of temporarily wearing a mask in the middle of a pandemic is what gets the "it's my right" crowd riled up in this country? Yea ok kids. Obviously, for many, not wearing a mask is a political statement above and beyond anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As with lockdowns, maybe it's the indefiniteness that really bothers people. Just as there appeared to be no real end game for lockdowns, there's also no stated or objective criteria for when the masks might come off. Why can't people who choose to wear a mask simply give it a rest on judging those who don't? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dynato Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 If only there was a way to measure the aerosol filtration efficiency of different materials. https://pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021/acsnano.0c03252 Surely there have't been any rigorous peer review studies with an airborne disease or flu strain such as H1N1 with specifically N95 masks? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23571366 There is definitely no way we could know if masks were somehow implemented that it would reduce the impact of covid. https://arxiv.org/pdf/2004.13553.pdf Perhaps the notion that masks can be used to protect against aerosols if applied correctly is just too daunting to study. https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/f215/d2555255314e9afe44b0e47a33e318775e81.pdf For now, without vetted research, it is easier to say they are completely ineffective if they are not 100% effective or worn wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
