I think you should look up why its called "Nanny State." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your opinion- mine differs. Also, I'm talking about rapes, muggings and other crimes facilitated by masks. 5 minutes ago, tinfoilhat said: What percentage of muggings and rapes pre-covid involed masks or face coverings? You tell me. Make sure you link to valid evidence. Edited July 15, 2020 by onewheeldave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First result in Google: https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/face-coverings-mask-england-exempt-compulsory-shops-public-transport-a9617656.html Not an official govt pronouncement; but thanks anyway, hopefully that will follow. Noticable that it is predicting that the exemptions for compulsory masking in shops are looking to be tighter than they were for public transport.

apelike Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 3 hours ago, Arnold_Lane said: Wearing them in offices has already been rejected. Which is absurd as an office environment is even more enclosed than a supermarket and the rules should apply equally to all situations where practical. 3 hours ago, Arnold_Lane said: Your worry that wearing coverings will increase instances of rape is frankly absurd. Not really as it does have some merit and as I have previously pointed out facial recognition will not work when people wear face coverings. People in the past were asked to remove face coverings when going into banks for example but look on the upside, police surveillance using facial recognition will now be a waste of time.

For rape, it doesn't. I'm not repeating myself why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't disagree. But nor do I think wearing face coverings is the beginning of totalitarianism. Do you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
