Maybe it is against the law to wear a mask and carry a gun.

I have no problem with individuals who have a valid medical reason for not wearing masks. However, they should have a letter from their doctor. If I had a medical condition requiring I could not wear a mask; I would have a letter from my doctor. It wouldn't be hard to get. Publix is just not going to honor their advertisement of requiring masks. I thought the people of the villages would like to know.

If you’re really worried about it why did you encourage an exchange of words? Them talking to you puts you more at risk than just avoiding them. Not to mention the stress you put on your immune system by getting yourself all worked up about it. Best to just relax, move on and mind your own business.

Seems to be making a fuss over an issue no retail store would do in asking customers to leave. Goes with healthy folks parking in handicap parking spots ,to make an issue out of it is pointless.

And those mask-less individuals are just selfish people who don't care about your - or , obviously, their own health!

You are not the mask police. You have your opinions, facts or your beliefs, others have theirs.
You are not privileged

No, the mask-less ones ARE THE ONES who aren't PRIVILEGED! THEY have NO RIGHT endangering the health of others for their own selfish reasons!

At Walmart a few weeks ago I took my mask off when going to the bathroom. I needed to spit and get some air. No one else was in there. I forgot to put it back on and had my long pants on as I had donated platelets earlier in the day and was coming from One Blood. The mask I had must have fallen off after I had detached it from one ear. Moreover, I did not carry an extra mask in my long pants. When wearing my shorts I usually keep a back-up mask in a pocket.

I ended up wrapping the medical tape they had put on me at One Blood around my mouth and looking very foolish. Before that, I did look around to see if anyone else was not wearing a mask at Walmart and there were a few people without one.

Funny maybe, but not foolish. You looked like a person who cares.:bigbow:

Alaska Butch 08-31-2020 10:40 AM

My Mom lives in the Villages. We just retired and will be there soon. We live in Palmer, Alaska. We are virtually mask less here. Anchorage on the other hand is in a total lockdown with everyone in masks. We enjoy a COVID infection rate over nine times less than Anchorages. Odd right. Then I see an artivle that has an actual link to CDC stats that say the reported death tate due specifically to COVID nationally is only 6% of what has been reported as COVID deaths up to their new update August 23rd. It turns out they had reported all deaths that were also positive for COVID as COVID deaths when in reality, they died of a multitude of other reasons such as cancers, heart failure etc. Take it for what its wirth but if you read up in viruses it is clear, we will all get this virus. But we have over a 99.4% chance of surviving it. its Something akin to the flu.

Roron123 08-31-2020 10:42 AM

Too much is made of “having to wear a mask 😷 “ actually they can cause lung inflammation due to breathing Carbon Dioxide. So just chill out and leave others alone it’s none of our business what others do

Actually they do have that right. They reserve the right to refuse service to anyone, as long as they aren't violating discrimination laws.

It's no different from the "no shoes, no shirt, no service" policies. They ALSO have the right to not enforce their policies. They ALSO have the right to create these policies as a way of encouraging people who were on the fence, to comply with their requests.

In other words -
Anyone who used to say "I won't wear a mask in a building UNLESS that store requires it" will now finally actually wear a mask in that building.

Again - it is doing what it was intended to do. Nothing is broken, no lies were told.

Just remember that at some point, you might encounter someone who shows you a sign to THEIR business, reminding you that you are REQUIRED to wear a mask in THEIR business, on THEIR property. And if you make a fuss, they will be within their rights to force you to leave. And if you make a further fuss, they will THEN have the right to call the police and press charges against you for trespassing.

Plus everyone in the store who respects their policies, will be able to point at you, take pictures of you, post them online to make sure everyone ELSE knows that you are one of those people who have no respect for the policies of places you choose to do business in.

But go ahead and fight for your "rights."

And remember, your rights end where mine begin.

They also have the right to not escalate a situation to the point where the police have to be called in the first place.

OrangeBlossomBaby 08-31-2020 11:09 AM

What I would suggest, for people who want to "report violators" of policy for whatever reason:

Ask yourself these things first:

Is that person forcing themselves into close proximity to you? (less than 6 feet)
Is that person coughing, sneezing, spitting when he talks, or any other such trait that would cause their saliva to shoot out like a missile toward you?
Is that person being otherwise disrespectful, or is the fact that they aren't wearing a mask the ONLY thing that they are doing, that seems to be against store policy?

If the answer is yes to the above questions then by all means - report them, they need to be reported, they might pose a serious health hazard.

If the answer is no, then just leave them be and make sure to keep YOUR distance away from them, as you wish they would to you.

rhand48 08-31-2020 11:20 AM

Were you 6 feet away from them when you confronted the man you spoke to?

jklfairwin 08-31-2020 11:21 AM

Anyone not wearing a mask in a closed public place after being reminded is deliberately violating the law and endangering others to prove a point, whatever it is. All stores, like Publix should have someone at the door to remind people and offer a mask to those who forgot. But they are not police, they are already endangered just by having to work for our benefit, and I salute them.There have been too many violent cases where the issue was pushed or there was an attempt to block entry. People of that ilk are also likely to be carrying a firearm. Far better and safer overall for everyone to just avoid such people.

sail33or 08-31-2020 11:35 AM

There is no "LAW" requiring masks. Laws are passed by State and Federal Legislatures.

Even Governors mandates can be challenged in court.

Yes, businesses can restrict some things on their property but it can't discriminate against anyone.

(My religion forbids covering face, I have COPD, I am poor, I have no ears, etc.)

I suggest mind your own business, stay 6 feet or as far away as possible, stay home, order from home for pick up, etc.

You might just tell the wrong person(having a bad day) to wear a mask and it might not go so good. Just saying.

Neils 08-31-2020 11:50 AM

So if I choose not to wear pants in the publix store, is that ok too?

How about yelling fire, fire. Is that ok in public businesses?

No mask is a public health risk. Call the county health dept then the gov office. Maybe they will shut down the greedy stores that ignore public safety just to make another sale.

My observation
Publix very poor
Walmart makes much better effort
Lowes tries
Home depot not so much

Avoid shopping at stores that do not care about your health

donassaid 08-31-2020 12:25 PM

Wow. Didn't know we had so many members of the "mask police" here in TV. I don't wear one unless it is absolutely required. I have a problem with acid reflux which is aggravated by wearing a mask. And, no, I don't have a letter from a doctor. Piece of advice. If it gets your nose out of joint fir others who don't wear a mask, just keep your distance and you won't be affected. Some people wear them playing golf, pickleball and even riding bicycles which is downright dangerous. A bit too far.

Olyarchik 08-31-2020 12:26 PM

My husband and I care about our health so we always wear masks if we have to go out. He was at Walmart on 466A when it opened at 7am and someone was not wearing a mask. He asked one of the staff if they could speak to the person without a mask. He was told that an employee at Leesburg had tried to enforce the wearing of masks and the customer had pushed the woman to the ground.

If you feel safe wearing a mask then by all means wear one..... Most people do.... But if they don't have a mask on then it's there personal decision , whether it be health issues or not it's there decision.... We all know by now that the CDC has come out with the real numbers of Covid deaths and it's wasn't worth costing people there jobs,homes an small business closing up... If your that afraid then stay within your 4 walls.. Most of us are not being scared senseless an getting on with our lives. But when it's all said an done most common people will never recover from this... An it's all over media lies....Face mask is not going to protect you... If it did you wouldn't have people in nursing homes getting it cause all health care workers wear mask right???

Not only would lives had been saved but our economy would be much stronger. We may have even been able to have fans in the stands for professional sports as an example.

The store is violating their own policy. If masks are necessary to protect shoppers, people with a medical condition should be told to use delivery or curbside pickup, but to leave the store. I don't like wishy-washy policies. Our country is becoming a bunch of wimps.

I would like to add more thumbs up to this post.

Also it's none of your business the person's medical history it's called HIPAA.... Some places could ask the villagers to bring in a health certificate stateing they have no STD since it's everywhere knows it's the biggest place for it. So carry your health cards people so we know what you have right... People have rights ...

Why do you have the idea that "masks do nothing"? That is so not true. I suggest you research the efficacy of mask wearing vs no mask wearing. There are countless articles and videos that demonstrate how masks block droplets AND aerosols. Do some homework about this. You sound like you have no idea what you are talking about.

Have you given any thought at all why mask wearing is required and in many places mandated? There is a reason for that.

That is not good enough. That is considered "half masking". I saw on a news cast that there are more viral particles in the nasal passage than there is that comes from the mouth. Just covering your mouth really does nothing to slow the spread of this virus.

The CDC should just come out and be honest and tell everyone that these masks do nothing. And for a virus that is over 99% survivable, all this is totally unnecessary. The media has done a good job of turning so many people into paranoid idiots

We dine only in restaurants which follow DCD guidelines by distancing their patrons when they are seated. Of course, mask wearing is impossible when you are eating and/or drinking. That is why the distancing is so vital. We also will not dine in any establishment whose employees are not PROPERLY masked and that means both nose and mouth remain covered at all times.

It is people like you who are preventing many venues from opening fully. We have no fans in the stands at sporting events, movie theaters are not open, our entertainment in the squares is still on hold, cruising is out of the question at this point, schools are having a very difficult time opening for in person learning, I could go on and on.

Thanks a lot for keeping our economy from opening up fully.

No shoes, no shirts no service. Was that mandated by the Governor? Disney is escorting patrons off premise if they aren't masked and if they create an issue banning them from future entrance. Was that mandated by the Governor? Delta and United have removed flyers and have banned them from future flights. Was that mandated by the Governor? Private businesses make their own rules and enforce if they choose. Your denial, lack of understanding and belief that you have no obligation to your family, friends and neighbors is worrisome. I guess the only positive is we know you are not alone.

Those who "claim" they have a medical condition which prevents them from wearing a mask, should not to into the establishment. If they really must go into the establishment, then wear a full face shield. There is always a way to slow the spread of this virus, even if you can't wear a mask.

Air linescare enforcing the mask rule. No mask no fly. Stores can do the samething or take down the worthless signs.

Airlines have Homeland Security, armed and armored, stationed in every airport and dedicated to act swifly in case of a threat.

Supermarkets have - store managers.

Most stores are not throwing people out of store. It would create to much violence/or security guards, which they don't have. I have not been to any stores which ALL have masks on!!

I have to agree with you! If a person has a medical condition & it’s so serious that they don’t have wear a mask you would really think the would have to have something saying they’re NOT REQUIRED TO WEAR ONE! Don’t know how they can get into a govt. office place without one.They absolutely won’t let you in without a legal slip saying you have a medical condition unless you show them the excuse! Some govt. places have metal detectors & believe me if they say you have to have mask you better be wheeling in a medical respirator.

Just because they don't wear mask doesn't mean they don't care bout others but they care enough bout there own health not to wear them... If your mask is on then I'm thinking you maybe sick. People are taking this whole mask thing way to far... Let some idiot say something to me bout wearing a mask... You'll get a very RUDE awaking.... You wear one that's your business none of mine and vice versa...... Get a life people... Stop living in fear of media propaganda

The Sprint store on 441 across from Home Depot did just that. They turned away a couple of people from entering and informed those potential customers to come back with a mask. I saw a couple leave then come back 15 minutes later with their masks. The door to the store is locked and must be unlocked by an employee. Now THAT is the way to "police" these anti- maskers.

I don't confront non mask wearers when I'm out and about. I will speak up, however, is someone is in my personal space and does not even attempt to distance themselves from me.

Just this morning, hubby and I were waiting outside of Darrell's Diner on 466A to have our temperature taken. (Yup, they check your temperature before you can enter). A woman came up behind us, NOT wearing a mask, and stood about 2 feet from me. I asked her to PLEASE step back as I motioned with my hands for her to move. I was not able to get any closer to the entry door which was closed. This woman refused to move. I gave her a look that she had to know I was pi$$ed and I had a mask on. I moved in another direction to get away from her and to let her know I was annoyed with her. The nerve of some people!!!!!!
