Police handle many things wrongly. I just got back from the store where I held the door open for a police man as he entered... and he wasn't wearing a mask.

I waited until he got out and I asked him "No mask?" to which he replied "Why?" and I said "The sign says No Mask, No Service" (and everybody else was wearing one) and this asshole replies "I wasn't buying anything." I laughed at him and drove off.

So you began your interaction by holding the door open for another human being, and you ended it a few minutes later by confronting them about a personal choice of health and safety, thought them to be an asshole, and laughed at them due to their response?

And you're so proud of that interaction that you are posting it in a comment on HN right now?

For all you know the officer was called into the store for an urgent matter.

Be kind to others, and you'll lead a much happier and fulfilling life.

Yep. It's not a personal choice though... it's well-known that wearing masks prevents the spread of disease.

How is it that you are ignorant of this fact?

That's what you got out of that?? Okay...

You seem to be having trouble differentiating a plain description of a brief interaction with a cop who was clearly in the wrong with "pride".

> For all you know the officer was called into the store for an urgent matter.

Too urgent to take 2 seconds to put a mask on for everybody's safety???? When he wasn't running into the store? That's not urgent...

Sorry buddy, but you're clearly wrong. Perhaps you should re-think your position.

> Mind your own business, be kind to others, and you'll lead a much happier and fulfilling life.

I'm white, I live in a great neighborhood, I got a huge house, a pool, a boat, 3 cars, my job is very fulfilling, I make 6 figures working full-time from home doing something I love... my family is wonderful, I have hobbies, friends, I travel... thanks for your concern, but I'm not sure how much happier I can get, lol ;)

I'm honestly doing so well and my life is so easy that I feel guilty at times.

Sorry that you got triggered by this. Perhaps you should consider taking your own advice? Please do... thanks.

Not triggered, just flabbergasted at your insistence that thinking another person was the asshole after you called them out for not adhering to your own worldview.

Obviously you know you were in the wrong, which is why you just wrote so much defending your position. So I'll leave it at that.

Enjoy your huge house and 3 cars. I am glad that they make you happy.

Scientific facts are not a worldview. Saying so is awfully ignorant.

My state has also mandated that everybody wears masks in public places, so it's actually against the law right now...

Care to keep going? I'll be right here...

>>waynef+331
No not at all. You are obviously right.

Enjoy your cars! :)

>>flyGuy+F31
Well, I listed a lot of other things besides cars that make me happy - not sure why you're focusing on that, as if someone enjoying cars is a bad thing...

Mostly I enjoy having a nice conversation. Thanks so much for making this a pleasant one.
