They don’t need to think anymore. Technology does it for them. Bet they can’t give instructions on how to get to a location, reading maps, use a compass, etc.

In response to extreme right about masks and concealed carry, I contacted the local fellow who does the concealed carry classes and is in close touch with local law enforcement. His response was
"There is no Colorado law regarding wearing a mask while legally carrying a firearm with your permit. There are two states that have a law that touches on this BUT you must be in the commission of a crime while wearing a mask to be in violation. Even those states (Illinois and Michigan) have clarified that you are NOT in violation of their laws for simply wearing a mask for health reasons while legally carrying. "
Hope it helps with anyone's decision about concealed carrying. It eased my mind.

As I said elsewhere........just need to conform to the letter of the law to make a mockery of it........I'm 99.9% sure any of these EDICTS do not contain a DEFINITION of "mask"

I think I can...
I own a small shop. I’m in Ohio, in a county where masks aren’t mandatory. But many bordering my county do have mandatory mask rules. I’m not terribly keen on masks, but I don’t care much one way or the other. I don’t require it for customers, though most do wear them anyway.
So, Tuesday (first day of my work week, closed Monday) I decided to comply with Thursday‘s request from Gov DeWine for retail staff to wear masks. My first customer came in; I put it on.
Guess what? She was Deaf. She read lips, very well I might add. But I had to take the thing off for her.
My daughter is an ASL teacher, so I’m sensitive to the needs of people who are hard-of-hearing. I was of course happy to help any way I could. I am ashamed to admit I know very little ASL myself, beyond thank you, sorry, yes, no, and finger spelling. I do however know how to get a Deaf person’s attention, and how to speak to them so they can lip read, if they do have that ability. I frankly have no clue how they manage it so well. It’s hard!
But I thought... gosh, how hard it must be for her, and people like her! I wonder how many business workers refuse to remove masks for her because they think it’s “mandatory” and they don’t understand. I feel so bad for people like that.
Yes, there are those silly masks with little plastic windows. They get fogged up, and even if they don’t, lip reading is hard enough when you can see someone’s whole face, I can’t imagine how hard it would be to see about two square inches of mouth.
Even if you do know ASL, facial expressions are a big part of the language. I have no idea how my daughter is going to teach ASL classes in the fall with mandatory masks for teachers. Maybe she can get a face shield instead, though as of now the school isn’t allowing them.
Stinks.

Can someone PLEASE help me find this?
Hannity (I think it was) mentioned today a man and his FAMILY being CURSED OUT by a woman LOSING it and SCREAMING "F*** TRUMP! F*** TRUMP!!!" when she saw him wearing his MAGA MASK.
I've searched & searched but can't find anything about this. The woman's verbal attack / meltdown was in front of the man's wife / kids as well as himself.
I sure would like to find SOMETHING on this story.
Oh--and yes, I found pro- Trump masks --- not a true "MAGA" mask yet, though:

Bumping hoping someone will see this---did ANYONE find the story anywhere about some lady (I heard her name actually WAS "Karen") who went ballistic on a man and his family because the man (or perhaps all of them) were wearing MAGA masks?
She kept yelling "F Trump!" at them and I think "she" actually got in trouble, since it was in front of children
Heard about it on conservative talk radio today (either Hannity or Gorka) and would LOVE to find the story.
THANKS!

If you can't breathe in a flimsy mask, then you shouldn't even be leaving your house.
Get in better shape, eat healthy, and quit complaining.

So far, I have only seen one mask that I approve of. It belongs to a Billings, Montana store clerk. It appears to be made of 1/4 of a fancy non-terrycloth towel. It has only one strap, which is at the top. The bottom hangs loose. I think that the pink flamingos printed on it are very appropriate.

And why don't you try walking in someone else's shoes for a mile or two? Geez man, try being a little less ignorant towards others, hmm? As I recall the OP, she *can't* wear a mask for a damn good reason.
Elza it is very selfish of you to want to use more O2 than others
just because lack of O2 will kill you

Not only can they NOT give directions, they don't even KNOW the NAME of the streets they live on, work on, drive on.
One of my sons--who uses GPS (either Google or Waze) to get EVERYWHERE now, used to tell us he went to visit this friend or that, and I'd ask, "Where does he live?" and he'd reply, "I don't know." I'd even ask just the name of the TOWN he lived in? Was it Kennesaw? Dahlonega? (both 30 miles + to the north / nw from where we live) or Decatur? Dunwoody? (both south)--he had NO idea. So then I'd ask if he knew what STREET was the final destination--and for one of his friends, when he told me it was near a certain street, I said, "Oh! Decatur!"
Both my husband and I have said, if our son were to have a major car problem, and his phone happened to not be working for any reason, he'd have NO IDEA how to describe to anyone where he was, or even which direction to WALK, to go toward his home...he's be as lost as if someone were to drop him into the middle of Romania...

Bumping once more---in hopes a TB2K member heard the talk-show host mention this yesterday (it was either Hannity or Gorka, or maybe Mike Gallagher; I listened to all 3 yesterday while at work)
I imagine the video they were talking about is on Twitter, rather than You Tube, b/c I keep searching for it & can't find it.
I understand charges were brought against the woman (who actually WAS named "Karen") for shouting obscenities at the man and his family, because young children were present
But of course the MEEEDia wouldn't WANT this story of PRO-GRESS-IVE madness to get out....
If ANYONE here heard this & can help me find details or the video the talk-show hosts said was out there, I would truly appreciate it.

Wearing a mask is like wearing a scarf over your face when it gets very cold outside. How hard is that?
Seriously, if you are not capable of wearing a flimsy mask to go do a little shopping then you probably aren't healthy enough to go do "a little shopping."
I don't like wearing these masks either. Our daily temps lately have been 100 degrees, and they are hot.
But if you have to rant and complain about the act of wearing a mask to do some shopping then you must REALLY be some delicate little snowflake that can't handle jack squat.
Sometimes the whining gets to be just over the top.
People with COPD barely have the lung capacity to intake enough O2 to function. Worse cases need O2 concentrators
When the balance is that close, it doesn't take much restriction to get past the tipping point of not enough O2.

I’m just here for the gasoline...
Maybe a trip to a store that requires masks should be left to someone else then...if your pulmonary problems are that severe and you catch the virus you'll most likely be in pretty bad shape.
It's like trying to have your cake and eat it too...
You can make your political point to the POLICYMAKERS...not some poor schlub trying to make a living doing what they are told to do by their employers.

To all you people who are telling us to stay home if masks are difficult.....
I HAVE to go shopping for myself, even if only once or twice a month and when the store first opens its doors. There is absolutely NO ONE ELSE to shop for me.
I have emphysema and if I use a mask properly, I start to black out. I can inhale through a blue paper mask so the mask is pretty much worthless, but it makes others feel better and the store I go to has all of their employees masked and they are all very nice and helpful. I sometimes ask for help taking my cart out when I leave and I usually suggest that whoever helps me should pull down their mask after I'm inside my truck, so they can get a few lungfuls of good fresh air before they have to go back into the store.

What ... noooo .... we can’t allow you to catch this Covid ... you must comply by wearing a mask ... you can’t die ... claim the liberals. But they’ve have zero problems killing baby’s ... sucking the life right out of them.
I spit on your mask demands ... it’s my body my life. If you’re scared ... then wear one, problem solved !!!
Morons, you stand a better chance of catching this by touching something not wearing gloves. Why aren’t they mandatory ???
This isn’t about saving anyone’s life. The commies don’t give a shit about your life.
