If you are wearing a mask and the other person does not, the percentage of infection increases on the person with out the mask. If both parties are wearing a mask then the person breathing out is having things filtered out and when the person inhaling breathes in thru the mask he is also having an additional amount of protection at the same percentage as what was removed by the sender. The degree of protection is actually doubled if both parties are covered up.:thumb_up: Lets just protect our fellow beings.

not about the wearing of the mask. its about the people mandating it by law setting up the framework to lose more freedoms. I wear my mask. I condemn ANY state that puts it under penalty of law. Dangerous freedoms and personal responsibility any day for me.


I Agree With You....Except Obviously there's too many folks who Do Not Care About Others or Themselves and would go to and they still try to go in stores, bars, casinos, churches, parties etc. without masks and no distancing. I Really Miss Going To All of Those Places!

This whole thing will be gone in 60-90 days if Everyone, Like You Are Doing wears a mask in public. I'm sick of it too, None of this Ever had to get this far here.

I got another notice today that along with Kansans, Missourians can't go to NY due to the amount of infections. So now the USofA can't go to Europe, Mexico or the Bahamas. That's horrible...Never In My Life Would I Believe That Could Happen.

Thank You For Helping To Stop This Virus.

I've been meaning to ask you, What is your Avatar Picture? I thought it was a Bat, then I thought it was a Black Rose.

Yes, this is about freedom.
Freedom of not having some idiot infect me.
Freedom goes both ways.

X 10

I call BS, Treasure Hunter.
If the other fella doesn't have his mask on, his crapolla might get into my eyes even if I have my mask on.

Then wear glasses.

If masks work then there is no need for the other party to have mask on, after all, "masks stop the virus."

It is proven that 2 masks is greatly more effective than 1 mask.
I'm not even going to comment on telling people to wear glasses. It would get me banned.

How bout if the infected fool standing near you, without a mask, starts coughing and spewing corona into the open air and it in turn settles all over your body.
Do you not feel personal rights have now been violated?

This person is causing potentially life threatening situation for people with underlying health problems. Me being one.
In other words I am responsible for defending myself from people, who have no regards for other people's rights.

Like I have a right to spew disease in your eyes if you are not wearing glasses.
To me, it's no different than someone breaking in my house(personal space) and threatening to cause my bodily harm.

EXCEPT FOR: I could legally blow their brains out with pleasure.

It's funny how some people think they have rights, but if they disagree with someone else's idea of rights, those rights are wrong.
Maybe we should rewrite the Constitution,so we not only have a Bill Of Rights, but a Bill Of Wrongs for all the narcissist people.

I sure there's some, maybe many who will disagree with this.
And that's fine, everybody has the RIGHT to have their own thoughts.
But, I bet the ones that agree, have a whole lot higher chance of living a longer and healthier life than those who don't.

Either way, good luck and try to stay safe.

I have a right to defend myself from bodily threats in public.
Example: Someone tries to carjack me.
I'm in a public space on a public road.
I will by any means possible, including deadly force defend myself.
Would you not?
It's called " The Stand Your Ground Law".
I would guess you would be familiar and strongly support this law that allows you to protect yourself anywhere,anytime.
You know, it's one of YOUR rights.

We are lacking something as a civilization
Common courtesy and consideration for other people.
Perceived personal rights have trumped that.

I had an actual date with a female yesterday. We didn't wear masks while together.

I even gave her a peck on the lips as we parted (no tongue). We didn't wear masks.

Now, the question is, did either she or me expose each other to some disease in the news?

Not likely....

If someone is trying to forcibly break into your car to cough on you while you're in the car you have the right to defend yourself. If someone just walks by my car and says I'm going to steal your car, I dont have the right to shoot them by law, I have to wait till they are physically trying to force their way in while I'm in the car.

Tell the police you shot someone because they didnt have a mask on and see how that works out.:tongue3:

If masks work then as long as your wearing one it doesnt matter if other people are wearing their mask.
actually this is wrong. the mask only prevents you from spitting on another person essentially. It does not protect you from the virus. Due to my work I am tested on respirators and mask and such every single year. And they are not protecting you, and if its airborne then the masks are doing nothing else but preventing the spit of talking or coughing or sneezing.

It is the view inside a 1800s well I almost fell into detecting at night one time. some kind person in the past 100 years was kind enough to wedge a rock across the middle so all I did was crotch myself(better than the alternative of no one ever finding me again lol)

you also have the freedom to avoid those without masks. No one is making you walk up to these people. Unless someone actively comes up to you and gets within the 6 feet then you have no issue. Just like cars kill, but no one is forcing you to drive....

Respectfully you are wrong, because someone isn't wearing a mask and "breathes" on you that doesn't give you the right to kill them or assault them. How do you know that person is "infected"? The powers that be have gone overboard with this whole WUFLU thing, I know it has grow ito a political Gordian Knot the precautions were initially executed with good intentions but it has evolved into something WORSE than the actual virus itself. It has pitted American against American, here we are talking about shooting someone coz they dont have a mask....seriously? The constant drumbeat from the propaganda machine that once labeled itself as the media has effectively brainwashed the American people with their lies and misinformation. Instilling unreasonable fear and paranoia

And if any want to quote "bodycount" statistics to me, may I point out that 150K deaths out of a 330 Million (or more) Population translate into very very small odds of you catching a disease with a mask or without.

I know, i use to wear the same masks while wood sanding and cutting dry wall as well as cutting concrete, face was still covered with the dust after removing the masks and covid19 is 10 times smaller.

Like I said Tom, it isn't just about dying. How would you like to be hospitalized for weeks or even months and left with life long disabilities? Also remember that many who are hospitalized rely on Medicare to pay for hospitals and that only covers a maximum of 80% and even then not all procedures. People are being left without their savings or in big debt. Death toll now five times car crash deaths and climbing, more than triple flu deaths last year. Many survivors will have disabilities and debt that will change their lives in a negative manner forever. I saw my cardiologist yesterday since after four months I am having breathing and pulse rate problems, he said I very likely have scarring in my lungs that will leave me with problems for the rest of my life. Yes, I am alive, I survived, but my ability to do the things I love may be gone forever and my life shortened. Those folks with permanent heart and lung damage will not live as long as if they had never got the virus, that also counts towards a true death count even if they die from complications in the future.

TP, i don't know what kind of respirators you use at work, but I was an auto mechanic most of my life and after the asbestos business was exposed we all were issued the respirators with heavy elastic retaining straps, rubber mouth and nose coverings and the two big replaceable filter canisters. I assure you that after a brake job or clutch job my face and hands would be noticeably black but there would be no dust where the respirator sat. A good respirator does NOT allow any particulates to enter your respiratory system.

Gunsil, how many people do you actually see wearing respirator mask.

Only a few, but if everybody wore even a simple one it would cut down the infection rate. Even your POTUS now agrees.
