Wisconsin business owner bans wearing of masks
A Wisconsin business owner banned the use of masks in her buildings Friday, after the state Supreme Court overturned the state's stay-at-home order.
Annie's Campground, near Gresham, Wisconsin, posted the new rule on the establishment's Facebook page: "Masks are NOT allowed in the buildings for safety sake. They are viewed as a robbery in progress and will be handled that way." The post goes on to list planned events and food items available to patrons for the May 15-17 weekend, before thanking patrons in its conclusion. -more at link- https://www.newsweek.com/wisconsin-business-owner-bans-wearing-masks-after-court-overturns-stay-home-order-1504589 Oh Lordy, what has happened to my state?

1. What has happened to your state? Republicans. Fox "news".
Of course, republicans and fox news are one and the same, but I'm sorry for Wisconsin. It's a deadly duo.

4. I would wear one anyway and refuse to remove it.
Unenforceable rule.
Then I wouldn’t be camping anyway. |

6. A private business can enforce any rule they want.
No matter how stupid the rule may be. You are making the exact same argument as those who refuse to wear masks.

7. I'd do it just to piss her off.
That would be fun.

14. She said that it would be viewed as a robbery in progress and would be handled that way.
In that part of Wisconsin that means guns.

8. Doesn't seem like a good way to keep customers, if you know what I mean.

12. She has chosen her customers
Her sign should say, no one with brains allowed. I hope her politics work out for her business.......
The part of her sign that said that masked people would be treated as robbers is not a very subtle threat of violence. |

13. That "robbery in progress" statement concerns me
It almost sounds like a justification for shooting someone in a face mask.
