Actually, I am putting NO ONE at risk. They are putting themselves at risk if they see me (If I am not wearing a mask) and still approach. It is not my responsibility to retreat. It is your responsibility to be cautious. You do not keep walking toward a snake, gator or a coyote when you spot one, do you? Sorry, but I am not my brother's keeper. If you think otherwise, then you misunderstand the Constitution. If I was a bus driver and I was recklessly operating a bus full of passengers, then I would be putting someone at risk. If I put a sign on my vehicle, warning folks that I am a terrible driver and that if they rode with me they were putting their lives at risk, then it would be their problem if they insisted on riding with me. And if they did ride with me, they would have no right to demand that I change my behavior. Get it?
That said, I wear my mask and sometimes wear gloves. I have been tempted to wear my military gas mask when shopping, just to see the reaction of some folks
However, I do not care if others wear their mask or not. Friday, I went to a restaurant that continued to fill until it was at full capacity. I enjoyed my meal and left. Far as I know, I do not have the virus.....yet. I have no intention of wearing a mask when I am eating. If they start demanding that we wear a mask I will not eat out.
