Personally, I visited 9 states in 2020, never wore a mask, and nobody, government or otherwise, said anything to me.
At that time I kept up with the Australian news and I saw people getting their ass beaten, by cops, for not wearing a mask in the outdoors. I saw a pregnant women get dragged out of her house by police for criticizing the government "covid" response, online.
Questions for you:
Do you think "Joe 6 pack", armed with an AR-15, would just sit back and watch his pregnant wife get dragged out of their house, by 4 or 5 cops, because she wrote something about the government online?
If it wasn't because we are heavily armed, why do you think we as Americans were able to tell the government to pound sand concerning "covid mandates", while in other countries, such as Australia, they were brutalized by the police and sent to concentration camps?
