Nope.

Masks at protests are not the problem. Protesters wearing riot gear are the problem. Protesters should not be allowed to wear helmets, body armor etc. Wearing such gear indicates to me that you are there for some reason other than to peacefully protest!!

What are you talking about. I visited both the Capital building and the Congressional office building four year ago and in both cases had to go through metal detectors. Are you talking about the tunnel between the two buildings? They did not have any there because to go from the office building to the Capital building you had to be escorted. But after what happened that might no be a bad idea. Won’t stop people going through smashed windows.

A shot to the neck will

These are hired guns not protestors. Depending on which side of the road they are from is what they are labeled.

We are becoming a 3rd world country.

Really, the golf stores don’t require masks?

What we need, is insurrectionists to be shot the second they breech federal buildings.

"Requested", not "required"

I don't get it----with up to 20 people inside, all going to a counter, this is a place that should require masks

TV is very inconsistent. The sales offices only "requests" masks. The district offices not only "require" masks, but also require an appointment be made in advance so as to not crowd the office at any one time.

Not only TV---ate at Hell's Kitchen in Vegas 2 months ago. Mask required until appetizer served. If you ordered a drink, it had to sit in front of you until appetizer served! Meanwhile a table 5 feet away from us had their appetizer served and people were alternating bites of food with hacking up a lung.

The horse is out of the barn now, but it would have been better if the federal government put out a list of "best practices" for all these establishments early on.

Can’t do that , we are suppose to be wearing masks

Can't do what?????

Think we are there, not becoming. How many countries have seen a January 6 in their history ? A few, but not many.

I believe you are incorrect. The $$ fines you reference are to enforce mask wearing after Republican House members refused to wear or accept masks while sequestered in close quarters.

masks and protestors
 

actually most states have these laws due to the KKK in the 40s and 50s but it would make an interesting case if the state has a law insisting on a mask.

During the pandemic? You are kidding, right?

Re: we need a law.
What we need is enforcement. People have different opinions. To the point that all are confused as to what the law is and if it will be enforced.
I ask, I ask myself, do we want a police state or do I think only laws that don't effect me should be enforced.

Remember years ago that American kid who was whipped for stealing a sign in a foreign country? Endless debate. I do not have answers. There are none that everyone will agree on.
