    I think people are afraid. And somehow, their fear overcomes my constitutional rights. It is interesting though that liberal/progessive folks are so unreliable in terms of their consistency here. When it was AIDs, liberals fought any and every measure that would limit the spreading of this disease. There are laws in CA that knowingly passing AIDS to another isn't a crime. Even though the potential is there for killing the infected person. And yet, it's a crime if you don't wear a mask. Now that's some shyte.

    The real rub here, from my perspective is that so many liberals/progressive folks demand that the total population has to be reduced. As long as that reduction doesn't include them of course. We know that folks who do wear masks have also been infected, we know that they have died. And yet, masks are the virtue signal and bow to authority that they so love and embrace. The CDC have said that wearing a mask outside is useless. And for those of us who did get vaccinated, the fact that we still have to mask up is stupid. If the vaccine doesn't protect me, or keep me from being a threat to others, then the amount of money and time to develop them was entirely wasted.

    Yes, people are afraid, and they are that way because the incessant propaganda was designed to cause fear. It's not the first time in the history of man that government propaganda has induced fear.

    And now a legislator from Arizona has reported she has the infection, more than 2 months after both shots.

    Bummer.

    What do you mean by "those people can't bother to breathe (I'm assuming that's the word you meant) properly"?

    Every doctor, health professional, exercise professional, martial arts trainer as well as junior high school coaches and nutritionist recommend slower and deeper breathing to improve health, lower blood pressure, improve mental alertness, skeep and reduce stress.

    The quick, shallow breathing practiced by the usual un-exercized and rarely walking American spectators who ride a golf cart to move twenty steps may complain a mask leaves them "breathless", but its a cardiovascular system that does barely survives in any healthy movement.

    Thanks for expounding on that. The way the comment reads is that people are just too lazy to breathe properly versus not understanding there is a more useful way to breathe.

    This notion that the study you refer to claimed or proved anything of the sort has been debunked thoroughly. The claim you are making originated from a far-right blog, circulated on social media, and has been refuted by countless researchers and doctors INCLUDING the authors of the very study.
