People refusing to wear a mask may as well put a sign on their forehead saying - "I don't give a #h%* about you," because that is clearly what they're saying.

And yes, I am an expert on Constitutional Law.
The driving analogy doesn't work. Driving is not a right. It is a privilege.

Can't smoke indoors doesn't work either. There is not a constitutional right to smoke anything.

The only one that works is yelling Fire! in a theater. First amendment.

I am surprised a constitutional law expert does not understand that.
