I got the following political spam in my inbox...

Tired of the government telling you what to do?

Do you live in a city requiring ridiculous and worthless cloth masks?
Now’s your chance to stand up!

Let everyone know that cloth masks are worthless, and you aren't going to let your freedoms be stripped away due to fear and panic.

Make a statement with our "This mask doesn't do Sh*t" Printed mask. This mask is a great conversation starter. You'll almost be able to see the grin and envy behind every other mask wearing covididiot out there! They come printed with the American Flag on the other side. The mask is also reversible in the off chance you get tired of all the attention and compliments on how awesome your mask is.

What others don't do is start with the regulatory info, but here it is (and no fine print that you cant read!)

We have to tell you this because these masks do not actually protect you or anyone else from Covid or any other virus/bacteria, even though you might be required to wear them in many places.

These masks are not medical grade and are not to take the place of the N95 masks or respirators. They are not suitable for use in a surgical setting or where there would be significant exposure to liquid, bodily or other hazardous fluids, use in a clinical setting, or use in the presence of a high-intensity heat source or flammable gas.

These masks are not a respiratory protective device, and therefore should not be used for particulate filtration.


Our cotton face mask consists of two layers of cotton French Terry. These masks are both reusable and reversible. We specially designed them to be super comfortable for easy and longer wear.

Made in the USA.

You can do better than the -tard suffix, which is a slur. WhiskeyGrinder May 2020 #4

A Trumptard will, or will attempt to, pull a mask off a 70+ year older that does not want to die, like myself, and the senior citizen is going to pull out a pistol and shoot the mask grabber for attempted negligent homicide.

It won't be me, because I'm resigned to the fact that until there is a vaccine, the ONLY buildings I will only be entering are my local Costco and Publix for grub during the stores opening hour, and getting away before the crowds arrive, and I don't pack a gun.
