the constitution and our government not having the right to tell him what to do. Still, he hunts and fishes with the required licenses, drives his car with state mandated tags and insurance, pays his property and income taxes, secured the proper training and permit to carry a concealed handgun, obtained the proper state certification to work in his chosen profession, obeys most traffic laws, would never think of going to a doctor who didn't have the necessary degrees, would never hire a contractor who wasn't licensed, and on and on. I guess wearing a simple face mask, to save his life and the lives of others, is a step too far.
