What's this?

Meh. I think the sheriff's office has better things to do right now

than arrest people for not wearing a mask.

I'm not sure I agree with him that the science doesn't support masks reducing the spread of covid, but the science certainly supports a FAR more effective approach for reducing the spread of Covid.... Vaccination. Unfortunately we have a cult of morons in this country that are owning liberals by refusing to get vaccinated and by undermining efforts to increase vaccination rates.

To add: I would hope they would arrest anti-mask lunatics having temper tantrums and refusing to comply with a private business enforcing masks in THEIR store.
