Mandatory Mask Mandate??

[Lazz]

Just wondering. What's your opinion on wearing a MASK during this pandemic? Do you think they help... any, if at all?
Are you against mask wearing, and if so, what's your reasoning? Do you believe mask wearing is effective at even slowing the spread of the virus? What would you think about making mask wearing MANDATORY? I know, lots of questions. Answer one, or all, or none, entirely up to you. Opinions welcome, if you choose to share. Thanks!! :mask::+1: :v::mask:

you do get hands-free sneezing benefits

Lol I can’t reply when you keep leaving the chat room Lazz!
But masks are meant to help; we should use them since clearly people can’t stay away from each other

[chewie]

masks suck. Our future kids will have deformed ears and be born naked. It is sad.

[Lazz]

@chewie Born naked??? :thinking: LOL Yeah...that just won't do

[RexGreeley]

I hate wearing masks, but I always wear one in public, cuz they do work. It depends what kind of mask we're talking about though. I use a KN95 myself.

[RexGreeley]

States that have mask "mandates" haven't really had a whole lot of trouble with them, from what I've seen.

[RexGreeley]

See, Biden can't really do that - it's up to the states, but he can set an example on federal land or in federal buildings.

All I know it is better to be safe than sorry... I hate masks but would rather people wear them and social distance then bury friends and family....

[Lazz]

@chewie That's true!

@Lazz mask wearing is good and necessary but it shouldn't be mandatory

[Lostluna]

@Lazz I think masks should be worn but there’s far to many exceptions allowed to actually make it mandatory.

[Lazz]

@Lunamaria Well said. I can get behind that opinion. :mask:

[Lostluna]

@Lazz I know where I live if you are playing sports or have certain medical conditions you can’t be forced to wear a mask.

[Lazz]

@RexGreeley :mask::+1: Good deal. Protect self AND others. Way to go!

[Lostluna]

@Lazz I just don’t see any way to really mandate it cause anyone can claim a medical condition. Or some exemption such as religion. Idk if a mandate could really work.

[Lazz]

@RexGreeley Not picking sides, just saying this has been in the news, lately, too:

@Lazz said in Mandatory Mask Mandate??:

@Lunamaria I don't think even a state-wide mandate could actually happen. Just saying it has been talked about by our local Gov. here, in the "news" :thinking:

I am pretty sure my state still has a state wide mandate.... I am not sure if it is lifted but I don't think so since every shop has a sign that says no mask no service.

Ok just looked and the order is in place with exceptions for people with certain disabilities and young children

[Lazz]

@Sassygirl @Lunamaria said about the same, where she is. Here, too. BUT regardless of whether or there's a MANDATORY mask mandate there are those who still choose not to, with seemingly no real consequence.
