    I know someone that recently got a heart transplant. They wear a mask, and take many other precautions so that their immune system doesn’t reject the heart. They aren’t being overly cautious - they are actually at risk. I can’t imagine a government trying to arrest them for wearing a mask.

      NC Republicans aren’t a government

      At best they are a christofascist theocracy

      This entire scenario (the mask banning) is ridiculous. Political games like this are the worst.

      I can’t imagine a government trying to arrest them for wearing a mask.

      Imagination isn’t your strength, is it? If such a statute was placed, I can definitely imagine a cop not giving a fuck about a serious medical issue. As if they used reason or had empathy.
