The tide has turned and I have noticed that I am usually the only un-masked in Home Depot or Alberton's here in sunny La Mirada California - about 15 miles east of Los Angeles.
Most times I there are few interactions with normies and the check out people never say anything regarding the posted mask requirement.
But, three times in the last week I have been confronted by customer normies.
Next time I want to be better prepared with a rational response.
Here is what happened:
1st - While pushing his cart passed me, a masked normy mumbled "jeez - put a mask on". I ignored him.
2nd - Standing in line, a double masked normy grunted under his mask when he spotted my naked face. He than turned around and told me to distance, since I was mask-less. I said that there is no distance requirement and that I don't wear face masks. I held my ground and he paid and left. I saw him commiserating with other masked normies in the parking lot as I walked past him to my car.
3rd - An masked, obese unhealthy, 60+ year old man in line told me that if his arm was not broken he would kick my ass - fyi I am 60. I told him to get a life and I held my ground. He continued complaining to me and the check out girl until he paid and left. I stayed silent. The check out girl had nothing but kind words for me after he left.
Next confrontation I am going to be prepared with something like this:
"I cannot wear a mask safely. I have a medical exemption, I am suffering from pragmatism, common sense, and the love of liberty."
Thoughts?
I like this
I always tell them I already had covid, twice. And have more natural immunity than 10 boosters and am not scared of getting a weaker variant because it is free immunity booster.
I then go on to explain that it was like a bad flu, did knock me out for a few days but that I suffered no long term effects and I feel that people's fear is causing them to become more ill than necessary.
Do you really believe you had it twice, or is that just something you'd say? Dr. Peter McCullough insisted you can't get it more than once when he was on Joe Rogan.
Not sure. I know I had it once for sure (worked on a construction site on a new bank) , got it from some other contractor and got a nice free 40 hour vacation and a positive antibody test.
Got sick like 9 months later was similair but never did the antibody to confirm.
Both times felt like the flu although I had a higher fever on first round.
Hmm. Thanks. I do wonder. Dr. McCullough was adamant with Joe, who said he had a friend who had it twice. Dr. M. said, what you have is a friend who had it once and also had the flu. I wonder how he can be so certain, though he is an epidemiologist, so he ought to know.
Would you mind telling me what exactly you went through that first time? You said you had a higher fever the first time. How high? What other symptoms did you have? Vomiting? Chills / sweats? Aches? What did you experience? Thanks.
