Conway selectman bucks mask request

Why attack someone who is following the guidelines? If you are that fearful why not question the guidelines rather than attack someone in you community?

People choosing to not wear a mask when at a distance from others that is 6 feet or more are not breaking any rules. Neither are those in the same scenario who choose to wear a mask.

Plenty of people who are not comfortable with others making a choice that is within the guidelines are often quick to go on the attack against them while ignoring what the guidelines state. Is this coming from fear, ignorance, laziness or possibly people wanting everyone to do things the way they see fit? The guidelines also allow people from different households and states to go to a restaurant and sit together in a booth right next to one another and eat, drink and socialize without masks and that’s never under attack even though they are likely sitting 6 feet from other parties doing the same thing while also not wearing masks.

Some postal workers choose not to wear masks while behind plexiglass and others have masks and gloves. It’s their choice. Is anyone attacking them?

Maybe the real issue is that people are so scared it’s just easier to attack your neighbor than to talk to your neighbor, question the guidelines or question anything.

The most valuable real estate in the world is the space between your ears. It seems we live in a time where we can’t be bothered listening to someone with a different point of view and respectfully disagreeing or trying to understand their feelings. It seems to me the “New Normal” is thinking everyone should do things the way you think and to hell with whatever anyone else thinks and anyone who doesn’t agree is wrong.

Here’s an elected public servant who cares for no one other than his own ego. Time to take out the trash!
