Dr. Bowhunter the epidemiologist. I thought you were an election statistician. I don't know how you fit in all of that YouTube research.

Blaze orange only makes you more visible. Doesn't stop you from being shot.

Bowhunter and SR, what is the highest level of science class each of you had?

He never does..... Just say'in.

Consider not wearing it next year on opening day of deer season--on public land.

Call mask wearing a mandate, call it a law. Folks won’t be arrested and thrown in jail for non compliance, but in some states and municipalities you will be fined for not wearing a mask. And businesses can also be fined for not enforcing mask wearing on their premises.

Same as violating a FO regulation....I won’t be arrested, but I can be fined.

I believe he has taken annoying and ignorant 101 and 102

I never finished high school, just went to work. I did take an introduction to physics class my last year.

I am just trying to figure out Dr Fakery. first masks don't work, then they will keep us all healthy and now you need to wear two of em. I think I will just continue to not wear one.

My advice is dont forget to wash your hands after you wipe your but, skin some fur bearers, or change the sparkplugs in your wifes car. Do that and you will live till its your turn to die.

If that is the case, I am mildly shocked by some of your comments on this page. I recall your reliance on YouTube nonsense to support arguments when we were discussing the election. Maybe you posted some more videos on pages 2-6. I didn't read those.

I studied geology and environmental science in college.

Now there's a shocker. Rocks and tree hugging. Answers a lot of questions.

Now you want after college? I'll be cross examining an expert with a PhD in engineering bright an early tomorrow morning in an environmental case.

You don't appear to employ the logic of someone trained in science...the mild shock.

And I'm not talking about your conclusions. I'm talking about how you appear to reach them.

Thanks.

Now I am really wondering about you.

You literally just asked what "lawyering specialty" I have that would enable me to contribute to this "science based discussion."

I told you exactly what I have. I didn't stop in college. I use science everyday in my practice.

A guy hunting on his own ground, with no one within a mile of him , is required to wear 250 square inches of FO, an must wear a hat. He’d be in no danger wearing camo, and may hate wearing a hat, but he complies...But he’s not a sheep.

A guy goes into a grocery store, he wears a mask, he may not like or believe in the idea, but because of a state mandate he complies......that makes him a sheep?

Which deduction? About me, about you or about masks?

In many areas you required to wear a mask or be fined. So if I change the wording from mandate to a regulation or law, everyone would be compliant?

I have a religious conviction about wearing a mask for other folks who are living in fear. I have placed my trust in God. To me, this is nothing more than an attack of Satan refining us.

We have almost endured a year of this craziness and yes have lost some loved ones. There is a virus out there, but a God who can bring peace that passes all understanding if we choose to accept it.

I work for the federal govt and currently am facing a personnel action for not wearing a mask even when more than 6' distancing. I found my line to stand on and trust the Lord for His will to be done.

I have zero problems following OSHA guidance after a hazard assessment has been conducted and wearing proper ppe for identified threats. I do have issues with purely fear based decisions that make zero biological or statistical sense that have no scientific backing.

Wear a mask if want to - but please be kind to those who choose not to.

If ya got a mask on, what are ya worried about if I don't? If ya got the vaccine, what are ya worried about if I don't? You're supposedly protected. If you are worried, stay home. Most everything we need can be ordered and delivered.

I didn't read the Covid shot thread. If your "cold hard facts" are your paranoid musings, empirical observations or YouTube videos, I disagree with your methods of deduction.

If your conclusion is that masks do not prevent the spread of Covid, you might be right. It is however not settled science.
