Coming down the homestretch.
My state's mask mandate is set to expire at the end of this month and I fully expect that it will not be renewed.

Seems like an attempt to reward vaccinating. I hope it works even if for only a handful (relatively) of people.

I don't know that my current masking behavior will change all that much.

it’s as much that as anything

i get it, but it’s a sad commentary

i mean, who knew that so many macho, patriotic, gun-toting ‘muricans would throw such a hissy fit over something so innocuous?

I will say this. I'll probably wear mask in a public place at least 50% of the time, but I won't turn around if I realize I forgot my mask. I'll go without it.

I am just kind of realizing that I haven't worn one very much since being fully vaccinated.

Costco is only place I can think of where I wear one 100% of the time. That's like twice a month.

I don't go many places still other than the grocery store, Target, Costco etc... and they all still require them to enter right now where I live. Vaccination hasn't changed my mask wearing at all.

When our mask mandate ends, I'll probably bring one along for a while but only wear it in situations where I feel like I cannot stay far enough away from others or when a business I want to utilize requires it still.

after all mask mandates expire, i would favor boycotting any businesses that still require a mask. that's assuming any businesses are stupid enough to require a mask after all mask mandates have expired.

I bet a lot of businesses would be in favor of your boycotting them.

Great news.
Two weeks from tomorrow, I won't be wearing a mask, i'll keep one in the car.

But also we know that unvaccinated will TODAY be going into all establishments without a mask and if confronted just saying that you don't need em now.

I wouldn't boycott a spot that required a mask at the moment ( and probably for a while ) but if they required a passport, like an ID, to enter, I'd just find another spot to go if convenient.

If a business still requires a mask after the mandate/s expire, then I wouldn't necessarily "boycott" the business but I might ask the owner/manager what is the reason. Regardless of their response,I might then ask if they are they willing to face the repercussions and possible/probable p.r. nightmare let alone financial losses that may ensue from it.

Hardly the same situation but reminds me a bit of this fucknut.

the stores i frequent that still require masks are as busy as ever, with everyone masked

(maybe we actually have fewer idiots than michigan...though Utahans generally are good about looking out for their neighbors)

Yep, and that is why I will still wear one in those establishments.
