Genuinely despicable to force people to choose between protecting themselves from disease transmission and protesting for causes they care about

The cruelty is the point. It only affects those protesting for good causes anyway -- those protesting in support of their orange Jesus won't have masks anyway.

For real. Those morons didn't mask up when they gathered a lynch mob in the capital building when covid was at its highest. There was every reason to mask up and still they didn't bother
