    Who said I was opposed to wearing a mask? I work with a lot of older people, and I wore it in consideration of them.

    As I told you before - I exercise the freedom to wear it or not, depending on the circumstances.

    Odd that you should jump to such conclusions.

      Perhaps he's wearing a mask to prevent internet nuts from seeing what he really looks like.

      Sort of like you not having an avatar at all.

          My conclusions were based on your OP in which you celebrated the lifting of the mask mandate.

            Try reading the OP again -- there was no celebrating - but there was certainly an observation that the liberals would be wailing.

            Here's the OP in its entirety....

              There is a clear implication that conservatives, like you, would NOT be wailing over this order, or that you even have any concerns or reservations.

                You just make being wrong an artform.

                        But I cannot understand lifting the mask order. This is a trivial inconvenience along with social distancing, but the data clearly shows it has a major impact on slowing the spread of this disease. I hope that Texans continue to wear masks, mandate or not.

                        We have already lost a half million people to this disease. Does pointing that out constitute wailing? We do not want this to get worse, and if taking small precautions will slow the spread, why not do those things? Am I wailing yet?

                            So, flipping through channels this morning before leaving the house, there they were --- liberals wailing and lamenting how "strong and wrong" Texas is.

                              Look at how Florida was singled out for castigation and vicious mockery from the left during the entire Covid crisis, and yet, in spite of having a larger population and a higher percentage of "at risk" residents than New York (which was continuously offered as the representative model of how to properly respond), it is Florida that is, by virtually every measurement, emerging in far better shape.

                                Speaking of avatars...what is the significance of a giant rolling pin destroying a bridge?
