Depends on the state and municipality.  My state has a bill being presented that would make it a misdemeanor to not wear one out in public.  It has no chance of passing and is being offered by a Philadelphia democrat for media attention.  But Biden and Harris have wobbled on their stance on a national mask mandate.  Once you codify something into law, it's going to be enforced.

Not to start that argument, but I think mask people are deluding themselves.  All the recent evidence shows this thing is airborne, not aerosol.  WHO said it months ago and bowed to pressure.  CDC said it this weekend, and bowed to pressure.  6 months ago, the WHO and CDC told us masks were useless, and had held that position for years.  What changed?  No one has been able to explain why the mask was useless against the Flu, but suddenly did something for COVID.  Appeals to authority have little sway over me.  If anyone has any actual studies explaining this, please let me know. 

I wear my mask in PA as required.  But I think it's a crutch to make scared people feel like they're in control.

Heading to Vegas in 5 days with some friends for my first outing since my cruise in January.  I'm hoping the whole mask thing doesn't make it unbearable.

She repeatedly resisted arrest and refused to be handcuffed. You don’t get to do that if you’re Black or White, man or woman.

I don't believe your claim is evidenced with the publicly available information.  Floyd actively resisted arrest once moved towards the vehicle.  I have watched all available videos.  The ones out around his death didn't show what happened after.  Floyd is clearly under the influence, and is actively refusing to be put in the vehicle.  He repeatedly says he can't breathe while sitting upright and before police restrained him.  He's shown inside the police vehicle resisting arrest, saying he can't breathe and is claustrophobic.  This goes on for a couple minutes.  The Floyd kicks himself out of the police car, and Chauvin restrains him.  Floyd says he can't breathe, just as he had been the minutes before he was laying on the ground.  A carotid choke doesn't take 5 or 9 minutes to kill you.  The original coroner report blamed his death on his poor health and the lethal dose of fentanyl in his system.  His family's lawyer hired other coroners who conveniently agreed with the family narrative.  Then they quickly buried Floyd. 

A jury will weigh all of this evidence plus all that which we're not aware of.  If knowing this information, you can confidently say the police are responsible for his death, good for you.  I can appreciate that stance, but to ignore any evidence to the contrary makes me wonder if objectivity is possible.  I'm inclined to agree with you, but I made the mistake of assuming the original police report, then made another opinion based off limited video.  I don't have all the information, and I know that the media isn't interested in providing that to me.  Otherwise they wouldn't be bending over backwards to make Rittenhouse look like a vigilante rather than a 17 year old being chased by antia fucks trying to kill him for putting out their fires.  Yea, there's now a video that shows that too.  But you won't hear that on any channel.

I have no love for cops. Or teachers, soldiers, nurses or any other profession that thinks they inherently deserve respect.

There’s a fundamental flaw imho with someone who desires to seek out physical conflict. Been there, done that. It ain’t for me. That’s why the army gets you when you’re 18. Cops choose to do that every day, and stay with it. I’m not calling them bad people, someone has to do the job. But if you like wrestling people who want to harm you to the ground, that takes a comfort and an extreme level of testosterone I’m not familiar with.

But they volunteer to go to the places and do the things you and I call 911 to get someone else to do. I don’t fault them for valuing their lives and safety more than the majority pieces of shit they’re forced to interact with on a daily basis. George Floyd was a bad person. He was high on meth and had a lethal dose of fentanyl in his system. You can google both of those statements. He had robbed and assaulted a pregnant woman at gun point. None of that justifies Chauvin keeping him restrained with a knee on his neck/back for 3 minutes after he stopped responding. Chauvin deserves what the court gives him. But you try dealing with pieces of shit day in and day out and tell me that’s not going to increase your chance of doing something wrong. Police need to be held accountable for abuse. But they don’t have to be demonized because violent thugs think they can ignore commands and argue their way out of arrest. And they definitely don’t deserve to be demonized for defending themselves again men who wish to harm them.

Floyd isn’t a martyr. I’m not convinced Chauvin’s knee wasn’t possibly not on his carotid. I’ve applied carotid chokes and been choked. You don’t last longer than 8-12 seconds. It’s worth at least consideration that the fentanyl played a part, if not the majority. I’m not committing to any position, just the reality of ambiguous video and conflicting coroner reports. We’ll see what the jury says.

I’m much more concerned at the moment of more cops being shot in cold blood and rioting on the streets, than I am of another cold blooded murder from a police officer right now.
