Can we please just ban mask wearing in banks and businesses at this point? It’s over, ridiculous and asking for this now.
YEP THAT IS THE ANSWER! If we ban masks in banks robbers will no longer go there to commit a crime as they will be unable to wear a mask. BAWAHAHAHA
Yes I think it is past time to do this.
Get rid if the face diapers
