    From what people were saying on Twitter, you can’t get a doctor’s exception. You gotta convince the cop that you need it for health reasons. I’m sure that will go well.

      Be sick.

      Cop forces you to take off your mask.

      You cough in the direction of the cop.

      Get arrested for assaulting a cop.

        From what I remember NYC cops died of covid at one of the highest rates of any group of people in the country.

          Cops in general did. It was the leading cause of death for cops, followed by car accidents from not wearing seatbelts and heart attacks from sitting in their cars all the time.

              One of my favorite bits is to get mad and call cops pussies when people say cops have a dangerous job because my former job of Pizza Delivery Driver was significantly more dangerous and we weren’t allowed to carry weapons

                If i remember correctly, being a police officer isn’t even in the top 10 dangerous jobs. It’s jobs like logging, industrial fishing, electrician, and some medical jobs. Yet you never hear about them when they die on the job yet the entire city shuts down if a single cop slips on a banana peel

                  According to Forbes for the top 10 we’ve got:

                  Loggers

                  Fishing and hunting workers

                  Roofers

                  Pilots and flight engineers (helicopters are the main reason)

                  Steel workers

                  Delivery and truck drivers (includes semi-trucks to UPS to pizza delivery)

                  Garbage collectors

                  Miners

                  Construction workers

                  Electrical line workers

                  Edit: Also with the exception of loggers miners they’re all from either transportation accidents (car crashes, or helicopter crashes for pilots) or falling off of stuff

        Something tells me the majority of these places don’t care about surgical masks or the likes, and ‘anti masks’ generally mean covering your entire face or wearing any kind of mask along with other menacing gear like full shades and gloves.

        Actually, since they’re western, I’m betting they actually do care because they’re idiots. Most Asian countries don’t care because it’s normal, and I’ve seen middle easterners, latin americans, africans, and russians (to a lesser extent) wear masks as well in vlogs and political events.

    So the fact that this will kill people is obviously awful, you should be allowed to wear a mask to protect your health without having to convince a cop

    But also, you should be allowed to wear a mask to protect your identity in public. Anonymity should be a right and if you want to go out in public dressed in a full morph suit to hide your identity that should be allowed.

      The original mask laws in the us were mostly passed during one of the big Ku Klux Klan waves and had some legitimate purpose. Now, though, it’s pure reactionary bs.

        one of my friends reminded me of some messaging going around encouraging people to “shop our values” as a stand in for “supporting local businesses”… the local businesses, many of which took PPP loans, fired all their staff, pocketed the payout and then got forgiven… only to turn around and complain “nobody wants to work anymore” when nobody wanted to come back to their shit show.

        to be clear, I do believe in the efficacy of spending money in the local community generally, but a whole bunch of local businesses showed their entire ass during COVID, and so fuck them forever.
