Meanwhile, my friend was verbally and physically assaulted at Target yesterday because she was wearing one. She caught it on video and everything. My viewpoint could potentially save lives while the opposite is actually getting people hurt.
Funny story: Was at the auto store the other day and this older lady came in without a mask. She bought some stuff and asked some questions and then went to her car (by herself). She then put on a mask and drove away.

NYC not even to “phase 1” yet...if/when there’s a setback, who is going to be blamed?
My grandfather had cancer. When we visited him, even if we were just going into the house to clean up or prepare meals or whatever, we all had to wear a mask. Because, even if we didn't spend time around him, not having the mask on in an area he could be at any point in the near future could've killed him. Masks are about safety. Even if they only offer minimal safety in certain circumstances, that small amount could be a life. Or maybe two. Possibly more. And all it costs me is a little discomfort for a few minutes. I wish my ancestors had had masks.
I do think there are changes that need to be made in public to stop that from being necessary. Sneeze guards and such. I feel like we could work through the problem and figure out some steps to take to minimize the damage (and it is happening right now as we've seen). Until those things have changed, I do think masks are a necessary bandage while suffering a wound.
