    Not at all. I'm just suggesting the decency toward our fellow human beings that has been so much touted in this thread.

    It would be interesting to know what medical science is involved. Your answer is incomplete.

    The science says the cloth and paper masks people wear are ineffective. Only the N95 masks have any hope of avoiding viral spread. There is no reason to continue the practice of wearing them. They don't matter.

    Again: Argue with the CDC on masks, not me.
    Additionally: If you respond compulsively to each post, you're not following your resolution as stated. You seem to be compulsively responding. Help yourself.

    Gee, it looks like you're just working hard to pull excuses out of the air.

    Obviously he feels uncomfortable wearing the mask. Perhaps he feels uncomfortable not being able to see the facial expressions of the rest of the judges? Does that make her the ******* for wearing the mask?

    Nah only people who do things YOU don’t like are the *******s right?

    So you're saying the other justices were wrong.

    So Clarence Thomas was bowing to the woke mob?

    Yes, it does make him a di$k for not wearing a mask when he was asked to do so to protect a respected colleague, who is more at risk for covid. I am astounded by the length to which righties go to excuse this inconsiderate behavior. Felling uncomfortable? LOL! I do a lot of things that are uncomfortable to not be a di$k. Sometimes, I feel the urge to pass gas in a meeting room, because the gas makes me uncomfortable. Do I do it? No, I rather suck it up, or excuse myself to go to the nearest bathroom. Wearing a mask for an hour is NOT hard. Everyone can do it, even Gorsuch. He just doesn't want to, because he needs to make an ideological point not befitting to a SC judge. And, apparently, he doesn't care that he looks like a di$k while doing so.

    Nope. I merely asked a question. All other things being equal, I think Gorsuch should have masked up. But my question was whether all other things were indeed equal. That seems to have made you uncomfortable.

    Justices “shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour.”

    When they fail to demonstrate good behavior, they can be impeached.

    I did. Conclusion
    Our review of the literature offers evidence in favor of widespread mask use as source control to reduce community transmission:

    Is the font big enough?

    It doesn't make me uncomfortable. It just seemed like something a defense attorney would ask when looking for reasonable doubt.

    Hardly. I just noticed all the talk about decent behavior juxtaposed with an immediate assumption about Gorsuch without any attempt to discern his personal situation. Seemed worth asking about.

    There isn't any reason to believe that he has a health reason for not wearing a mask.

    I mean he has worn a mask before. It would have to be a recent health issue.

    No see here’s the problem.

    If two people disagree on a subject and have two opposite and conflicting desires such as one person wants other people to wear a mask and the other person does not want to. There is no person objectively in the right. It’s personal preference of one person over the other.

    Gorsuch did exactly the right thing because the lives of people who aren’t cowering under their masks should not be forced to be restricted by those who are terrified of leaving their house because they might get covid.

    She, like the rest of the people terrified they might catch covid, should stay their scared asses at home and imprison themselves and restrict their OWN actions due to their fears and not force that irrational fear on everyone else who have lives to live.

    She had the option to stay home in her nice little self-imposed prison and do her job. She did so. That’s exactly what should have happened.

    "
    • Everyone 2 years or older who is not fully vaccinated should wear a mask in indoor public places."
    Is the font emphasized enough? Are the over 2? Are they fully vaccinated? Yes and Yes? Then no mask NEEDS to be worn and wearing one is theatre.

    His colleague who sits over a dozen feet away ffs. She didn't need him to wear a mask, they're properly socially distanced and everyone in that building has been triple and quadruple vaxed.
    Let it go.

    Wearing a mask in public isn't causing any meaningful hardship for anyone.

    People who do wear a mask aren't terrified. If my mask falls off, i'm not covering my face and running away screaming.

    When did we all become children.
