    I'm saying that idiocy theater should not be happening. Most of it was brought on by state-imposed and local county-level imposed decrees. It's not a laughing matter.

    And these businesses still take it upon themselves to force masking up. They can for example, report you for trespassing because they don't want you in there.

    You said you hated tyranny so these businesses are in the right to refuse service. 😃

      The government does not order stores to kick people out for trespassing. They have any reason to remove someone they don't want in their business and that includes anti-maskers.

        No. It is not.

        You're a trespasser because they literally don't want you in their store.

          They're private businesses. If they don't want you in there for any reason, including being an anti-masker, you have to obey that rule.

          The government doesn't matter because they can't be everywhere at once. And police reactions can be slow as well. But if they see you coming into their store when you should never actually be there in the first place, then leave.

            It falls under common sense, the same way we're going to have "no shoes, no shirt, no service".

            You give the government too much credit. Businesses care about their image and profit first, and anti-maskers have always attracted negative publicity. They would sooner distance themselves than be compared next to them.
