    I still can't believe people are wearing masks outside in summer heat ??! Also not being offensive but why do so many black people wear a mask ?? They're the ones I see the most....why would you believe the government after their history regarding race ???

    “Age-standardized data show that that NHOPI, Hispanic, and AIAN people are at about one and a half times greater risk of COVID-19 infection than White people, and AIAN, Hispanic, NHOPI, and Black people are about twice as likely to die from COVID-19 as their White counterparts”

    Like cancer patients, people with compromised immune systems and organ transplant patients.. I get a kick out of those the most wearing masks 24/7.

    Everyone should wear a mask with all the facial recognition and tracking cameras everywhere. Black people with a history of oppression well understand what it means when the government tracks your every move.

    I couldn’t resist busting your chops :)
    I don’t really see anyone driving around wearing a mask but then again I’m probably not paying attention. I do see a lot of cashiers at truck stops wearing them but I’m not going to make fun of them..simply because they are interacting with a lot of people every shift so good on them.
