       SUMMARY:
       Hochul Softens Stance on Ban Against Wearing Face Masks in
       Public
       A day after pushing for a partial ban on face coverings, Gov.
       Kathy Hochul said she favored a less stringent proposal that
       would target “masked harassment.”

       Masked Man Commentary: Oh really they call that softening the
       stance!? what stance are they referring to!? Why do people have
       to show their faces and don't we have more important things to
       attend to!? I can't even get animal control to follow state
       regulations and keep my neighbor's chickens out of my back yard
       during bird flu.. can we concentrate on getting my county to
       follow state statutes that prohibits domesticated fowl from
       running at large or are we going to pick on masked people such
       as myself? I'm all paid up on my taxes and I wear a mask to
       prevent getting a medical condition while you don't so what
       gives!?  Gov. Kathy Hochul should encourage people to wear a
       mask at mass gatherings during political upheavals to help
       prevent prev by the spread of airborne disease and to reduce the
       burden on hospitals that treat people after mass gatherings.
       Why the reduction of spreading covid is not on these talking
       heads’s political agenda is beyond my belief.
       I’d be wearing a safety mask if I were Gov. Kathy Hochul at
       public events because I am a pandemic survivor thus far and have
       so far managed to dodge covid and other airborne diseases for
       over five years now. It’s no accident I haven’t gotten sick the
       last five years nor do I recommend frequenting the areas these
       politicians frequent especially without a safety mask.
       Politicians are prime candidates alright.. prime candidates for
       airborne diseases at mass public gatherings. Politicians eat out
       all the time and travel all the time. Perfect specimens. They
       are always at that podium sharing a dirty fuzzy spongy
       microphone up against their mouths with their constituency.
       Before wastewater studies came out I used to simply monitor
       politicians health to gauge whether a covid wave was coming or
       not.
       There go I but for the grace of the mask,

       I mean c'mon I think I have some say in the matter. Not trying
       to be a 'maskhole' or anything but I mask and Ive never had
       covid and and so I find it somewhat shocking Gov. Kathy Hochul
       is so antimask considering she has had covid and therefore has
       likely spread it to others. Its hard to tell if the governor has
       long covid as well which should be a concern. To me, its just so
       wrong for a person who has had covid not to encourage others to
       mask... read it for yourselves...
       Gov. Kathy Hochul tests positive for COVID-19
       BY Adam Penale and Associated Press Albany
       UPDATED 7:29 PM ET May. 08, 2022
  HTML https://spectrumlocalnews.com/nys/capital-region/politics/2022/05/08/gov--kathy-hochul-tests-positive-for-covid-19
       "Hochul is at least the 18th U.S. governor to test positive for
       COVID-19, according to an Associated Press tally. Several U.S.
       governors have tested positive in recent months, with
       Connecticut’s Ned Lamont and Maine’s Janet Mills testing
       positive in April. New York City Mayor Eric Adams tested
       positive on April 10, his 100th day in office.
       Hochul’s positive test comes amid rising case numbers in New
       York. For weeks, much of upstate New York has been in the
       high-alert orange zone, a Centers for Disease Control and
       Prevention designation that reflects serious community spread.
       New York City last week crossed the city’s threshold for “medium
       risk,” indicating the widening spread of the subvariant knowns
       as BA.2 that has swept the state’s northern reaches.
       The Associated Press contributed to this report."
       -Masked Man thinks: I'm sorry but that is just a glutton for
       punishment .. telling others not to mask while covid lurks
       amongst our peers. Stay away from me sickos! I'm wearing a mask
       and I'm happy... jeesh! What drugs are these politicians on!?
       What happened to intelligent caring behavior? One has to ask: Do
       they want to catch covid again!?
       I just can't listen to anybody that has had covid tell me not to
       wear a mask even though I  might not have any medical
       conditions. Why would a healthy guy not want to wear a mask
       around maskless people  like Hochul who have had covid in the
       past and might be prone to covid because of their social lavish
       lifestyle of travel and constant schmoozing in public
       gatherings? I lessen the possibility of getting a medical
       condition because of my mask..I wear a mask to prevent medical
       conditions! That's why I wear a mask!!! I wear a mask because I
       don't wanna get covid like Hochul did..WTF!?
       It's not the masks, its the mass gatherings and political
       upheavals that politicians are hosting and creating that are the
       problem. People are exercising their rights.. If ya can't beat
       them join 'em and if you do join 'em wear a mask so ya don't get
       sick!. That's what's going on. Hochul ought to be grateful when
       she sees someone in a mask because it cuts back on the chances
       she gets covid yet again.
       Okay so there is a penal code already in place:
       Penal Code Section 185 PC, it is unlawful to wear a mask or
       disguise in order to evade the police. so what's the difference
       nobody is allowed to run or evade the police maskless either!
       Hochul is being frivolous in this masking matter.. just
       concentrate on the laws that are already in place.
       ...Big deal people in public wearing a mask aren't running and
       hiding from police..get over it... people who don't commit crime
       in masks aren't committing a crime. Call the police if you see
       someone committing  a crime be they in a mask or maskless...
       That's all.
       Police aren't going to arrest me because of my mask. In fact Ive
       called the police on my neighbors a few times for out of control
       parties and trespassing while in my mask and Ive dealt with lots
       of authorities  in person while wearing mask  and they are fine
       with it.

       I can assure everybody of this: Nobody has to worry about this
       Masked Man. Maskless people make me sick,, I can't even stand
       being around the maskless..I barely go out in public..I'm
       certainly no threat..I don't look at the face ...I look into the
       eyes...the eyes are the window to the soul..I'd be worry about
       the next outbreak if were the maskless...

       Houchul said
       “I have said before that I support some variation of
       restrictions on the use of masks, except for medical and
       religious reasons,” Ms. Hochul said on Wednesday."
       This doesn't make any sense for her to take a stance on masking
       that means only people with medical conditions are allowed to
       wear masks. What if masks were illegal?
       I'd argue it is the other way around and that more crimes are
       committed against the masked. I have had to call animal control
       for stray German shepherds and rotweillers and chickens in my
       yard(I have a little dog I walk on leash)..I have had so many
       people trespass into my yard, I have had neighbor encroach with
       excavator and steal rocks out of our creek for a culvert with no
       permit.. I have called police on several occasions for giant out
       of control riot like behavior of drunken people in my yard
       because of college football parties... and I am the only one
       wearing a mask trying to defend myself.
       Ive even had temper tantrums where I was on my property and
       maybe I was yelling at neighbor's to get their animals off my
       land and police come to house .. they just talked to me..they
       didn't make me take my mask off or check my ID... they listened
       to my side of the story and they let me be. I was reasonable. I
       don't do drugs or drink. Cops know this when ever I have had the
       pleasure of talking with law enforcement in my mask. They don't
       come after a reasonable person just because they are masked. Law
       enforcement officers probably find it refreshing to meet a sober
       reasonable masked crusader! We respect one another.. they have a
       dangerous job. They aren't bothered by my mask in my experience
       whatsoever.
       There should be no stipulations or laws directed at people who
       chose to mask nowadays... people should be allowed and
       encouraged to wear masks like the once covid stricken Hochul
       herself was allowed to freely mask at this school.

       Hocul's achievements
       DEC. 27, 2021
       Hochul wears mask around children in school so we can keep
       schools open and everybody is safe
       May. 08, 2022 Hochul gets covid(as have many governors)
       March 19 2025 Hochul says she support some variation of
       restrictions on the use of masks
       okay here's Masked Man's timespan:
       DEC. 27, 2021 Masked man wears mask
       May. 08, 2022 Masked Man watches on news that a bunch of
       governors get covid
       March 19 2025 Masked Man still wears mask doesnt get covid
       checks pulse feels great. I'm going for the Guinness world
       record of masking in public and not catching covid..anybody
       wanna help me achieve my world record?
       ..Its like I'm looking at two different people. I like the
       masked Hochul.. seem sensible.. She's around children ..its all
       about being safe and education.
       Hey Gov, Any chance of mandating masks for people at healthcare
       who deal with airborne viruses everyday? That way we could save
       lives with masks instead of chasing after the occasional masked
       bank robber whom you are proposing get a higher punishment for
       having used a mask while robbing a bank.
       Its like a split personality or something..two faced a dr Jeckle
       and Mr Hide...lol.. I don't like the mean maskless one..I prefer
       the Masked Hochul! The one that masks for children and the
       community ..I prefer the caring Masked Hochul![attachimg=2]
       P.S. Here's why even considering banning masks scares me.. I
       take care of an elderly loved one. I don't wanna get her sick
       and I don't wanna get sick.I can't afford it and I don't want
       covid... do I need a lawyer to walk down my street in a mask? My
       redneck neighbor's ostriches me for masking which is just as
       well, people laugh sometimes when I ride my bike in my mask and
       look at me funny ...I can't even get our doctor to wear a mask
       to check on my loved one who masks and yet I haven't caught
       covid or any airborne illnesses in over 5 years...my health iw
       good enough and I play music and I dance and I love life so I
       find it ridiculous that anyone would consider making my mask
       illegal. Banning masks is real threatening to me that wants to
       preserve my life and way of life. I like my mask it saves me a
       lot of trouble and is a great tool I use everyday for good
       things.
       The Masked Man!
