I’d add in the rage and being asked or even seeing others wear masks. “It’s my constitutional right to wear a mask. How dare you make me look bad by wearing one.”

Such a small sacrifice that too many are unwilling to make. Let alone what nonsense about a constitutional right.

I’ve been thinking about that cartoon with a kid with a bullet proof backpack going to school next to a frame of a mask rager.

The first take I had was that we’re asking that kid to make that sacrifice to wear armor but not willing to wear a mask.

Yesterday I realized it’s deeper. Of course we can’t expect Americans to sacrifice with tighter licensing, training and technical gun restrictions. As a country we can’t even sacrifice enough to wear masks.
