we originally were telling people to go get a mask and come back, but my AGM was the one that sheepishly told us we weren't allowed to turn people away, because we weren't allowed to ask why they were exempt if they started bitching. He thinks it's dumb, my GM won't shut up about how dumb it is, but I guess it's corporate policy and one of the ones we can't just ignore and do whatever we want like we normally do.

Never mind the big county notice on the front door that says MASKS REQUIRED TO ENTER BUILDING I guess

wearing a mask is telling "them" i'm willing to be controlled
only sick people should be quarantined

if you want them to really hate you, tell the jesus ones to get themselves behind you, for the jesus said to satan "i will not out the lord my god to the test."

then don’t ask why. just make them wait outside or provide reasonable accommodations like delivery. if you don’t do delivery normally then you don’t even have to do that.

ada has that exemption for a reason I guess corporate is too chickenshit to deal with the pr

trust me, my GM is the headstomper type and has spent three months furloughed, jonesing for someone to tear apart. if there was a way she could get her way on this she would, but corporate gonna corporate. yes, corporate is probably lying but none of us want to get fired, and we will because our clientele is boomer truckers and they will 100% call and complain straight to corp or they'll throw a fit right there and then, it's already happened. we have to wear masks, but they don't. they win.

I'm Not saying that refusing to take any poll seriously ever again or take any information at face value from a poll ever again is a good decision or a smart decision. It's just the decision that I have made and I don't think I'm ever going to change it.

the McCloskeys have apparently drawn down on other residents of their gated community in the past. i'm shocked they haven't shot anyone yet. maybe they keep the guns unloaded in order to safely posture with them.

we don't have to guess, the linked article quotes the police as saying they the McCloskeys are victims and that they committed no crimes. the mentioned investigation is targeting the protestors for charges of trespassing and 4th deg assault (intimidation).

I'm shocked they haven't shot each other.

I don't know a lot about guns and am not a fan but just in that short segment even I can see those weapons are aiming right at the other person with both their fingers on the trigger(s) several times which, as I've come to understand it, is in direct violation of gun safety 101. They're also both holding them very lazily and multiple times the line of fire of the weapon is directly pointed at the other one. Watch it.

I wonder what would have happened if a protester had also been armed or, say, had a concealed carry licence and drew down or even shot back in self defense since that lady was (lazily) aiming a loaded weapon directly at people walking through the area.

EDIT

Also the 2016 polls were right and within the margine of error. Trump won EVERY swing state he needed in 2016 by the tiniest amount of votes and every single 538 poll I look at now has Biden winning all those states back (FL, WI, MI, PA) and even some red states are close (GA, TX, AZ, OH).

If that had happened the cops would have probably murdered dozens of protestors.
