Stopped in at Meijer to pick up a few things. Columbus mayor instituted a mask mandate last week.
Big red STOP! Face masks must be worn for entry sign. Grabbed my cart and went on in. Attendant said "Sir do you need a mask?" I said no and kept on walking about my shopping. Look around and everyone has a mask on.
Get back deeper into the store and going down an aisle and look up, coming at me is another maskless guy. We both kind stopped and grinned at each other. Probably late 20's, early 30's.
He gets it! This shit changes when we say NO!
Gotta get groceries somewhere.....not driving 45 minutes outside of the city.
I live in the same city, and I understand that it's not necessarily the business's fault we have a fascist city government; but how they react to it is. That's why I just go inside maskless and see what they say.
If they give me any mask nazi shit, I walk out; AFTER giving a prominent nazi salute and a LOUD, "Heil Covid!", so everyone gets the point. In fact, I recommend everyone do the same; we need to make these fascists understand exactly what they are.
For the record, "Do you need a mask? is acceptable. "You are required to wear a mask, " is not.
By the way, can you recommend any based, or at least non-cucked, hangouts in the area? Almost two years with only the wife for social contact is too much.
