Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire O'Reilly's just lost my business

First of all, I think the word you meant to use was "integrity", not ethics. Second, you're wrong. It would have been integrity if he did what he did and there wasn't another auto parts store around to go to. Third, he lacked integrity because he ordered special parts and left them there. I also wonder if he had to put a deposit on the special order?

Why are the one's wearing a mask complaining about those who don't wear a mask? My thinking is the mask wearers know that a mask won't protect them and are only wearing a mask to ruin the country and hurt Trump's chances of getting reelected. There's a bunch of mask wearing commies in the US. Who passed and signed the law requiring that everyone has to wear a mask? Shouldn't be long till someONE decides to outlaw guns because making people wear masks worked so well.

All I can say having studied this type of thing in college is Ya'll go ahead and get this [bleep]. As for me and my family we will wear a mask in confined public spaces and if most folks ain't wearing them the we will leave. Whether you think they will help or not, at least they will do no harm. You may also save an older man/women's life by doing it. But go ahead and and be bullheaded and subscribed to this vast worldwide conspiracy. Good lord almighty folks need to have some kind of science training in this country.Oh and math too.

Excellent

Karen?

The same reason they complain about diesel trucks and plastic straws.

Some equate pragmatism[reality] w/ ethics. I wear a mask when necessary, I also carry concealed where it is prohibited. I don't remember getting to vote to have to have gun restrictions. Life goes on and everyone gets to decide what they get excited about and where their moral boundaries lie. Dissing merchants and clerks harshes my mellow.

Debating the ethics of mask wearing is worthy of our time



YMMV

I don't doubt you Flave but all you have to do is tell them you have a medical condition that prevents you from wearing a mask. They can't disprove it.

It's too bad the mask thing got so politicised. There is rational discussion to be had on the subject in terms of the science and it's not clear cut as to whether they are terribly effective or not. The consensus in the limited literature on the topic is that they provide significant protection, but the confidence in this conclusion is not strong (don't get your knickers in a knot, this is how science and statistics work - the science basically says masks probably work but there's no guarantee). The evidence for physical distancing and hand hygiene is stronger, but even with these, there's no guarantee. Where I live (Vancouver Island) we've almost eradicated coronavirus and life is pretty normal. We did that with the initial shutdown of most businesses and having people self-isolate at home. The self-isolation was not an order from public health, but a guideline and pretty much everybody followed it. Now we've got it under control and even team sports are starting up and the only real restriction is no gatherings of more than 50 people. No stores here are requiring masks although probably 10-20% of the population chooses to wear one.

If the [bleep] hit the fan and the infection numbers here went very high, I suppose I'd wear a mask in places that distancing wasn't happening somewhat grudgingly. Of course, I've been wearing a mask off and on for the last few days doing insulation and drywall work and it hasn't killed me. Better than having that white drywall snot at least.

No idea why people get so uptight about this.

Fugg yea I spent my $1200 bucks. GFY

I really thought deflave was just a jokester all of these years but it has become obvious he is not very intelligent.

Trust me on this one.

LOL

Charlie Murphy-Prince basketball and Charlie Murphy-Ricky James is some of the funniest [bleep] on the internet.

Where have you successfully used this defense?

I should have clarified that I wasn't speaking about masks exclusively but The Bologna Virus in general.

I haven't wore a mask in well over a month in a couple of states so EVERYWHERE I've gone. Try it, it's not that hard.

Congrats on making it through college. You're the last of a very elite group.

I don't doubt that but rest assured, it doesn't work everywhere.

Wrong.
