Mandatory masks?

This. It was a deliberate manipulation attempt in order to keep the public from buying out all the inventory of masks.

95% of the people I see are wearing their masks around their necks or with their nose exposed or they don’t have any kind of seal going on. The unwashed trash also all seem to think the masks are fashion accessories...maybe they should try taking a *expletive deleted*ing bath and washing their damn hands instead.

Yeah, lying is usually the wrong way to go.

Is the purpose of the mask to protect me? Or to keep those who may not know they are a carrier from further spreading the virus?
From what I understand, the mask rule that Houston/Harris County tried to do was just a face covering. You could just wear a bandana over your mouth and nose and be compliant. (The cowboy hat and gun belt might draw unwanted attention.) IMO, the bandana is at least effective at keeping any particulate from projecting from your mouth or nose while going about your day.
