    @Loki I disagree a little bit with you. Yes, there will still be people who will refuse to wear a mask, even if the governor or President Trump says too. But, there will be a number of people who will start wearing a mask if there is a directive too.

    So, I think that the overall number of "non mask" people will decrease.

    And, I think it makes things easier for the store workers if they can refer to something other than "store policy". Saying that it is a directive from the governor or (prefer) President Trump would be a bit more weightful.

    I agree. I think wearing a mask is a general problem and should be discussed as such. I get the rage against a Trump for his lack of leadership on this but it also misses the bulk of the problem. Maybe the anti Trump non mask wearers will comply with governor directives.

      There’s people who couldn’t be bothered to wear a mask and people who think wearing a mask makes them libtard sheeple who hate god and apple pie.

      Presumably the former group will be more compliant once it’s mandatory.

      The latter can at least be legally denied entry.

            Yeah I can’t even see it. But I needed to post the tweet not a screenshot because it’s a video.

                @jon-nyc that's the best pro-mask argument yet.

                            Fortunately for me, all the volunteer jobs that I currently work at (two farms and a food pantry) are real good about expecting all the volunteers to wear masks.

                            If they didn't, I would volunteer at those places until the virus pandemic gets a lot better at some point.

                                  Minnesoooooota has a statewide mask requirement beginning later this week for indoors or any situation when social distancing is not possible.
