    Tucker is right. Mask wearing is a tool of control by power hungry wannabe dictators. They have used executive power to try to control us and we let them. There is no rational for mask wearing out doors. We are sad that too many meekly gave up too many rights and freedoms. We are grateful to red state governors and legislators who have re opened their economies and ended or never had mask mandates.

    Lol…now this idiot wants to drag everyone else down to his level, eh?
    It certainly proves the adage about arguing with idiots and I expect all intelligent people will give his nonsense all the attention it deserves.
    Sadly, trump’s bleach drinkers will listen to that idiot and some of them will die as a result.

    How is wearing masks a tool of control? You realize these “power hungry wannabe dictators” also have to wear masks in businesses too, right? I think the point of being a dictator is to NOT have to do the things you force others to do.

    If you’re 2 weeks vaccinated you are ANTI SCIENCE still wearing it on a beach. Seriously. Just staple it to your face for the rest of your life at that point.

    Even unvaccinated if you’re social distancing on a beach or anywhere outdoors the mask isn’t doing ****. You might as well never leave you’re home because you think you’ll be struck by lighting. Those are the kind of odds you’re dealing with. It’s insanity.

    Indoors or in someone’s face, different story. But people who claim to trust the science are NOT trusting the science.

    I don't wear a mask outside. But my point still stands in places where that is the case. Those “power hungry wannabe dictators” also have to wear masks. As such...the "power hungry wanna dictator" argument is moronic.

    Really. You sound over paranoid bordering on a mental issue like OCD or worse. Do you wear a helmet all day long walking around because there IS a chance, no matter how minuscule, you can fall and crack your head open. Just like you can get struck by lighting walking your dog on a sunny day.

    Let’s play a math game. What is the statistical probability of contracting Covid on a beach while social distancing without a mask? And what if you’re actually vaccinated? Because by whatever logic you’re using, it seems you feel that no matter how insignificant the possibility we should still mask up forever in every situation?

    Where is the line? When is a statistical impossibility enough for you? Do you eat, because you can choke every time you swallow. Do you weigh those odds every bite or do you not consider them due to their insignificance?

    By the way I wear a mask in every social situation or out in public where I’m indoors and can’t control distance to people. But I’ll be fully vaccinated in a few days. At that point if I’m outdoors, no more mask EVER because I trust the science. Whatever insignificant chance there is to catch it at this point is not a concern anymore. And if I didn’t care about the social effect on others I wouldn’t wear a mask indoors anywhere either because I’m statically immune, meaning the chance of infection is far too small for it to be a concern. Unless the disease changes, then we all reevaluate.

    We've seen many of the politicians wear their mask for the cameras, then take them off as soon as they think the cameras aren't rolling.

    And then you have Herr Maskels himself not social distancing and wearing his mask incorrectly.

    I don't wear a mask unless I have to when I go into a business. I think having to wear masks is ridiculous. But based on your argument I feel compelled to ask...do you say the same thing to those that carry a gun in public? What is the statistical probability of one needing a gun to protect themselves in public? Because by whatever logic you’re using, it seems you feel that no matter how insignificant the possibility one should still carry a gun in every situation?
    Point being, everyone has a comfort level. Whether that's wearing a mask around people or wearing a gun around people.

    They still have to wear masks when they go into businesses. He might have taken a swig of water and forgot to pull up his mask right away. If your argument is that this picture proves Fauci is "power hungry" then you look a tad foolish

    No, the argument is that many of the people dictating masks don't actually think they're all that important. Like Fauci here.

    Good question albeit a completely different scenario. 2A gives people that right. And those legally carrying a gun statically will NEVER shoot anyone innocent and it will never impact anyone else anyhow. The guy carrying next to you does not impact your life at all. Laws requiring you to wear a mask when it is nearly a scientific impossibility does impact your life.

    And those who do carry all the time are indeed paranoid. And that’s their right. The thing is those who carry never ask anyone else to change how they live to make them conformance. Carrying a gun effects NO ONE except on super rare situations where it saves a life. Mask Nazis want everyone around them to change how they live forever to make them feel safe. There is a difference. Your analogy would make more sense if NRA members who carry wanted to force everyone else to carry too. That is not the case.

    That's bull. You can't take one pic in an instant of time and extrapolate that he doesn't think they're important.

    What a ****ing moron this man is. His rating must be dropping because he is becoming more insane each week.

    Don't want to wear a mask outside, then don't. I agree they are not needed outside, but why should I or you care if someone wants to?

    The point was about YOU bringing up the statistical probability of someone getting COVID if they didn't wear a mask. In that regard, my question about those carrying a gun was a spot on analogy.
    Wearing a mask "impacts your life"? Could you be more melodramatic? Sure it's a pain in the ass, but "impacts your life"? Come on...smfh

    Laws requiring me to wear a shirt or pants or shoes impact your life and yet none of you whine about them.

    He is probably trying to get people like you to start using common sense instead of government propaganda.

    This is getting silly. Was the pic of Cuomo at a time when outside masks were mandatory because they weren't the entire time. What is your proof the other pic is of dems?

    Strawman!!!! What is your argument? Should we have to wear masks for the rest of our lives. Yes or no? Do you want mask wearing to become a new defacto social norm without any logic or science to support it? Is that your goal, because you’ll have to elaborate on the point you’re trying to make? And by the way, according to the CDC a few minutes ago... even at 6 feet these kids can DIE while eating!!! :)
