I wonder if this argument would have any effect on those who refuse to wear a mask.

If we can force children into “Active Shooter Drills” so you’re free to walk around with a bazooker, you can wear a mask.

and if so, why not? And why don't they object to laws requiring the wearing of pants in public?

a mask, at least when it can be done behind the scenes.

White House issues memo requiring staff to wear masks in West Wing, CNBC, 5/11/20
... The directive from the White House management office was laid out in a memo to staffers Monday afternoon, NBC reported. ... The memo also asked staff members to avoid visiting the West Wing, where the Oval Office is located, unless it is necessary, the sources told NBC.


Something to keep in mind when some fuckhead harasses you about wearing a mask -- if they're so ineffective or the Covid19 is just a hoax, or if only wimps or “Democrat Islamo-Maoists" wear them, then why does your fearless leader require everyone near him to wear a mask? Why is he wimpifying his staff -- and by extension himself?
