This was the response from the manager of one of our local stores. (It should be noted that it is a very small store and proper social distancing is nearly impossible inside.)
"The Little Burro Country Store per Judge Canos' order will ask our customers to bring your mask along. We will not "mandate" our employees to wear a mask due to both physical and mental health issues. Only if they choose or in the case of an emergency and only for a short period. If you feel compromised, our help is glad to step back while running your card and you may lay your money on the counter and back away to the 6' distance. We thank you for your patronage as our intent here at Jackass Flats is to raise the quality of life here in the Big Bend area. Not to compromise our freedom and basic rights to make choices for our own health and welfare. My staff are not children, they are adults and can make their own choices within the perimeter of the law and have their own health issues which you know nothing about. As I stated, I am asking customers to bring their own mask with their own choices. We still opt to distance for them and have masks available for short term wear if needed."
Guess where in this statement that she totally lost me. And FYI - this is an emergency and the mandatory mask rule was issued because of emergency conditions. I am curious - exactly what physical and mental health issues mean they don't have to wear masks? Are they worse than the increased chance of catching and spreading the virus to the local community? Are they somehow immune to Covid-19? I suggest that if your intention is to improve the quality of life here, the store find new employees rather than jeopardize the general public as well as these current employees that have issues with masks.

The problem with this manager is...she is a Covid-19 denier and conspiracy theorist. As far as she is concerned, the pandemic is contrived to put us all under control of the illuminati.
Easy solution. People that don't agree with her don't have to go there.
This is caused by Trickle Down Stupidity led by Traitor Trump. And the GOP. This is only the beginning stages of what is coming.
I carefully researched how to make an effective mask and am amazed that so many people have not. And all these idiots who claim they don't need one are going to really enjoy being intubated...IF They are able to get into a hospital.
Best to give that business a wide berth. Love your enemies, but keep your guns oiled.
Penelope... Well Said!
AUSTIN (KXAN) — In an appearance Tuesday on Fox News, Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick told host Laura Ingraham during a discussion about Dr. Anthony Fauci, “I don’t need his advice anymore.”
“Fauci said today that he’s concerned about states like Texas that skipped over certain things,” Patrick said in a clip from the June 30 show. “He doesn’t know what he’s talking about. We haven’t skipped over anything. The only thing I’m skipping over is listening to him.”
Patrick claimed Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease doctor, “has been wrong every time on every issue”!
John Andrew...are you not paying any attention the daily global infection rate? Or are you only listening to Fox News... Perhaps you will start paying attention when this trickles down to you. If the pandemic keeps growing as is - it will eventually trickle down to everyone.
Dr. John Campbell has been on top of this since it was discovered. He is on YouTube..does not receive money for his channel and has no one to answer to. If anyone would be interested in learning the truth, he is a wealth of information. Fox "news" is licensed as an entertainment channel. Nothing but propaganda and be for Covidiots.
BS for Covidiots
I had it and it is bad and I could have died. I am very healthy and had tons of over-the -counter meds which I emptied and and a med from the doctor at the end. Without that, I might have died in the hospital. (I am 81 with a strong heart, non smoker, non drinker, only one low dose pill, no other ailments and good tests). (An Asian girl was coughing directly in my face and I did not know about the virus yet). That was when we first heard about it. Finally o.k. now. I had all the flu shots.
Gonna be a few interesting days in Texas from here on out. I'm staying in, so won't see any fireworks.....maybe they won't happen. I live in a little town. But you never can tell..
Margery, not to be unkind, but aren't you the person who was so swept away with trump's "intelligence"? You may have been confusing him with his scripted character on "The Apprentice". You were right, in a way. He is extremely good at seizing any opportunity to enrich himself, but he doesn't give a rat's patootie about anybody else in the world, except for all the vilest dictators, like Putin. His response to the worldwide pandemic was to deny it existed, all the way up to last week. How's that working out for you? You almost died from something that's "going away any day now, just like that".
Countries in Europe, where leadership still exists, are beginning to open up their economies again after driving infections to very low levels. Here they're taking off like a rocket and reaching deep into West Texas, as you see. No national response, just happy talk from mike pence, trump's craven toady. People in the various states are left to fend for themselves and if you're unlucky enough to have a republican governor who's a big trump supporter, like Florida, Texas and Arizona, it's "Katie bar the door". The main thing people can do to get good, reliable information that might just save their lives is to get it anywhere but "fox news", which is joined at the hip with trump and will lie to you constantly. This guy is an unmitigated disaster, and America was just unlucky enough to get hit with a worldwide pandemic while he was still in office. It's paying for it with many tens of thousands of unnecessary painful deaths. trump: he's not just a joke anymore.

Am so happy to testify about a great spell caster that helped me when all hope was lost for me to unite with my ex-girlfriend that I love so much. I had a girlfriend that love me so much but something terrible happen to our relationship one afternoon when her friend that was always trying to get to me was trying to force me to make love to her just because she was been jealous of her friend that i was dating and on the scene my girlfriend just walk in and she thought we had something special doing together, i tried to explain things to her that her friend always do this whenever she is not with me and i always refuse her but i never told her because i did not want the both of them to be enemies to each other but she never believed me. She broke up with me and I tried times without numbers to make her believe me but she never believed me until one day i heard about the DR.
