Non maskers, "Don't put on your seat belt." It is a..."free country."

[Stuart G]

..Late 80s early 90s, we had the same discussion on seat belts. It is a free country don't put it on..
So what if a seat belt could save you...just don't put one on...Oh, and if you ride a cycle of any kind...
don't put on a helmet.Use freedom to do what you want to do.. Let the light flash that
informs you to put it on a seatbelt, and helmets are pretty expensive you know..
...About the same time, they made it a law you must put your seat belt on. Non maskers know about stupid laws &you have the freedom not to follow stupid laws.

...I had this discussion with my students in the high school that I taught at. Times have changed about
"seat belts" but ...stupidity has not changed..

1. Seat belts protect you. Masks protect others. It's worse. nt

3. Don't wash your hands after using the bathroom either.

It's a free country. Why should you waste a few precious minutes of your time doing something that only protects others from disease in case you get germs on your hands from your shit, and doesn't do anything for you personally except inconvenience you? For that matter, why wear pants? Too bad if other people are grossed out by the pubes you're shedding with god knows what on them? It's a free country. And why should you have to use a tissue when you blow your nose? Just blow your snot onto whatever surface is convenient; who cares if it's carrying some bug? It's inconvenient to have to find a tissue just because your nose is running, and it's a free country.

6. Yes, you are correct.."free country."...Don't wash your hands after using the bathroom.

Makes a whole of sense. Well said..

4. Their insurers are free to deny coverage when they fnd reckless behavior is the cause.

In fact they are probably free to star cancelling policies now.

8. Thank You...I remember when smoking was legal in restaurants and other places.

Yes, great idea, those anti smoking laws are nonsense, especially in restaurants.

9. I have a conservative friend that does not like his seatbelts. Hooks it up and routes it

behind the seat so he does not have to listen to "that fucken ding ding ding"
Karma is a bitch. He had a coughing fit , passed out and hit a tree at slow speed. cut his head..
Still won't learn.... Seat belts a government plot to protect you from injury dummy..

11. Over fifty countries have made wearing face masks mandatory in public spaces, with citizens

facing possible fines if caught without one. We've done the same thing with seat belts and child seats for years in this country, and no one goes down to the DMV brandishing AR-15s, carrying on about "freedom!" These morons wouldn't fish or hunt without a license, ride their motorcycles without the required endorsement, drive a car without insurance, or run their businesses without permits. WTF is it with masks?

You don't see them out there protesting the many rules and regulations citizens in a complex, civilized society must obey. But when an imbecile like Donald Trump tweets out some stupid, crazy, nonsensical bullshit about face masks, these assholes hit the streets and create violent scenes in public spaces, even coughing and spitting on innocent bystanders.

It's all fucking Trump's fault his followers are risking their lives, and those of others, with all this "freedom" crappola. May they all roast in hell.

12. In the sixties, when seat belts were just becoming

standard on cars, we went through the same thing. Eventually — seat belt laws.
