GOD BLESS SOUTH DAKOTA...NO EFFING MASKS NEEDED!!!
I just returned from a 5,300-mile road trip from Seattle to eastern Tennessee and back.
About the only state with a BRAIN (regarding dumb-ass face mask policy) was South Dakota.
As this photo from a store in Sturgis S.D. shows, NO SIGNS on doors to businessess and NO GUILT COMPLEX from the citizens for not wearing one.
I will say that Tennessee was pretty good and at least a third of the people there didn't wear masks in public.
But several fools were wearing masks on 4 mile (fairly difficult) hiking trail out in the middle of nowhere in the Smokies which I hiked...REALLY??? Seeing as how it gained about a thousand feet in elevation, it was damned hard enough hiking WITHOUT a mask!
Anyway, it was interesting to see the different approaches to the hoax as I passed through at least 8 states getting there.
Suffice it to say that the liberal states (like Illinois) were all very good little complicit mask-wearing citizens - but nowhere rivaled big-government loving sheeples of western Washington State where I live.
