Presumably he felt that his freedom was being taken away by being told he needed to wear a mask.
Now he's in jail, where he'll learn what it's like to actually have his freedom taken away. And his virginity if he's really lucky.
Read the article. It is against Georgia law for a supermarket to require customers to wear a mask. They can request, but that's it.
I see some folks in the town stores still wearing masks. I see almost nobody out here on the rural route wearing one.
After vaccination, I don't understand why one would want to...
So, maybe it was some idiot with a gun arguing that everybody should be wearing a mask.
Either way, it was an idiot with a gun.
Yep. Stupid thing to shoot somebody over.
Which is why I always assume everybody is armed.

An armed society is a polite society.
Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

If one compares Canada and the USA, which have a number of cultural similarities, one might be left questioning the evidence behind that assertion.

Let Jolly believe what he wants. The fact of the matter is that Canada and the US are becoming vastly different countries in terms of shared political and social values. We have certainly never had the gun culture of the US as a part of our national identity. Likewise, our definition of liberty is quite different from that of the USA. Liberty to us is a single payer universal health care system and good governance, not the individual right to bear arms and the pursuit of happiness.
There is really no point of bringing Canada or the manners of its citizenry into this infernal debate over firearms that preoccupies Americans.

I’m glad Canada has some bragging rights.

Obviously, when I spoke of the inherent politeness of Canadian citizens, I wasn't referring to you and I

I hoped and expected as much.

Some freedoms just seem extreme to those who don't enjoy them
Killing babies for example
Indeed. Now repeat after me..... Canadians are godless murderers of infants.
Someone, someday just might listen and nod their head out of politeness.

Look at the bright side...If the U.S. was Russia, with that long common border with Canada, your Russian would come in very handy.

So what was your point of raising it in the first place?
You know I love to give you chances to be obnoxious
Just enjoy it
as I suspected you had no point, just more of your usual trite snark.
