I know it sounds counterintuitive but this seems like a reasonable position. Everyone should be wearing masks, especially when it isn't possible to distance. But when you think about what is necessary for enforcement - increased interactions with police - we start to find ourselves at a sticky intersection of cultural moments.nicknyr15 said:

Even if it's unenforceable and you don't really try to enforce, to avoid conflict, I bet you would get a lot more people wearing masks. Which would be worth it. To step in and take away that possibility and tool is a dick move.pjl44 said:

No excuse to not be wearing a mask when walking a crowded sidewalk on HB. (Or beach path)DewieCox said:

They were asking people of they wanted free masks. Not sure I call that confrontational.

He's being political, as most of the red state governors are doing. He sees it as securing his voting base and sticking with his buddy Trump. It's dumb because you see these mixed messages all the time of what works for one area of the state/country may not work for another so cities and municipalities were taking it upon themselves to mandate masks or take measures (based on CDC and public health recommendations) to reduce risks, but then the Governor steps in and tells them they can't. What a raging jackass. He barely won in 2018 and hopefully this will tank his re-election, but we all know people have short memories so he'll probably be fine in a few years.tempo_n_groove said:

Anyone who doesn't think America is fucked as a direct result of our federal government's handling of this pandemic is in serious denial.Great job voting, everyone!

They were asking people of they wanted free masks. Not sure I call that confrontational.Not saying the people weren’t asshats. Just don’t think they really “gotcha-ed” anybody the way you guys are saying.0 -
I did not see this as a gotha-ed video at all. It is all about the way they responded. Whether they should have been wearing a mask at the time is debatable and not the point. What is not debatable is the reactions they got which were sad and pathetic.DewieCox said:

If you are good with masks but just not wearing them because of the distance or open air, wouldn't you say so rather than unleashing profanity or talking about your rights and going to hell?DewieCox said:

This scenario you're laying out sounds like mixed messaging at best and selective enforcement at worst. I'd argue we've seen some of the consequences of trying to dupe the public for noble reasons. I'd much rather try openness right now and the sad reality is, private businesses aside, it's extraordinarily difficult to compel people to wear masks.dignin said:

Just think it’s a shitty way to approach it. I don’t really want to wear a mask so I avoid situations where they’re necessary as much as possible. If I’m minding my business and avoiding people, I’d find it annoying and I’d likely give an annoyed response and even overstate my dislike. Seemed like pretty mild responses to me. At least they didn’t get physical or pull a gun.
Whoever put out the video knew what they were doing and it’s just fishing for the type of response they got. Equally sad and pathetic to me. Just not a fan of these types of social experiments.0
