“Problem”: Restaurant doesn’t allow masks

Solution: Go to another restaurant

It’s pretty simple.

What they needed to find was a restaurant where EVERYONE ELSE was wearing a mask. Or better yet, as the parents of an immunocompromised 4 month old, COOK AT HOME!

“Victims”

Hyperbole much?

Please post the address so all the pearl clutching mask lovers can go protest.

Wow, are you confused. Forced to get drugs. Do you understand the the medical field, those are the people you run to when you get covid, are learning every day about this disease? You glass is half empty attitude is the problem.

Exactly! But ours has become a country of whining and sniveling babies who run to CNN and/or lawyers at the very first hint of something not going the way they want it to. Backbones, morals, character, common sense...all down the toilet.

We can wear all the protective clothing and breathing apparatus we want and nothing is 100%. One of the doctors in Jasper Indiana who works with the Covid patients contracted the disease. He wore all the protective gear you could wear. A mask at best is 50-50 if someone breathe or sneeze on you you’re done for. Wearing a mask is some protection but unless you’re wearing a respirator mask it’s a 50-50 proposition. The parents probably were doing the best they could to protect themselves an the child. In society today we tend to be critical of others instead of understanding others. I feel our country now has turned the corner of no return. You either for or against there is no neutral there is no understanding, love or forgiveness.

Do Texans kick out bank robbers that wear mask?

I haven't read where you debunked anything.

The usual paper/cloth mask is closer to 100-0 (against) if an infectious person sneezes on you. Where on Earth did 50-50 come from???????

If the reason they were asked to leave the restaurant was that they were making the other patrons feel bad then that's one thing. If they were asked to leave because of some other reason then that's another. Not enough information. But I do understand you asking "what's going on in Texas?" and I think we all know what's going on. Many of us are just shaking our head.

It’s on 301 in Wildwood on the East side of the road or Left as you head south. Seriously though DONT GO IN THERE WITH A MASK ON or you will probably have a gun pointed at you. They have been robbed a couple times and they didn’t like it!

Makes sense to me. They want everyone's face to be recognizable for their cameras in case of a robbery...

And who cares if they were kicked out for wearing a mask? What does texas have to do with us?

How did the couples decision to wear a mask hurt ANYONE? The owner (interviewed on the news) said he was tired of mask and the politics. So if it's about politics, it's a free speech issue, like making the remove a t-shirt he dosen't like.
