A funny thread really. Everything from the sky is falling to no way. I'm on more of the no way side. Masks, lock-downs, groups being unlawful... (unless you're protesting of course). It's all just a social experiment in controlling.
'Mask shamers' (yeah, that's a term now)
I was told I was taking chances not wearing a mask a few weeks back by a lady that had to be 100 lb overweight. She nearly screamed at my reply, I'll bet she hasn't 'shamed' since. lol
I'm in my early 60's, I'm active, very fit and haven't so much as had a cold in years. In the past 15 days, I've paddled probably 100 miles and cycled probably 60. I would have done much more but the afternoon storms keep me in more than I'd like.
The obesity rate in America is at 40 percent. An estimated 300,000 deaths per year are caused by it. If you have a 'condition' due to your being too fat (diabetes etc.) that has put you at risk of getting the flu... hey wait a minute, you mean you've been ignoring your body for decades but now it's my responsibility to keep you healthy? haha No!
I can guarantee everyone here is going to die of something. You can sit there and put blame on someone else or just man up and put blame on yourself.
Life is like a sail. You can hang around that mast until you dry rot or you can go out in tatters, shredded from the winds. I prefer the windy ocean thank you.
And on a side note. I've handled far too many masks and blue gloves these past few months myself. From parking lots, to trails, beaches and even one probably a mile out in the gulf.
