Just because they issue the fine, don't mean they will be able to collect on it.

That will end up coming right out of any tax return you ever are due too.
If there is one thing local/state/federal gov't is good at in ANY country, it's they get their money.

Ever since getting vaccinated I dont play the mask game anymore. I might wear on a plane however.

Interesting. Do you care to explain how you are now biologically different than everyone on the face of the earth?

Lol @ the people criticizing me for no longer wearing a mask because I've been fully vaccinated.

The are not mandatory in Texas anymore and are optional in stores, etc.

Like I said I would wear one on a plane and am not one of "those people" that get confrontational and angry if asked to wear one. So I keep one in my pocket if asked.

No big deal.

You people need to chill, aight?

Why many workers don't wish to return to the service industry truly is one of the great mysteries of our time.
But we treat them with so much respect. They are essential but we don't want to pay them more than shit wages, we don't respect them enough to not cough all over them in a pandemic, and scream at them that covid is a lie as their coworkers get sick and even die.

Asshole says and does asshole things and then has that gall to demand others need to chill out. Fuck right off asshole!

All assholes everywhere need to be called out for their asshole behavior each and every time they are encountered, you included! Don't like it? Then don't be an asshole. But since I know your tiny brain wrapped in its fragile snowflake ego can't handle this simple criticism and wont adjust behavior, you better get used to being called out for what you so proudly are, an asshole! And no, me and others here do not need to "chill out" on this one bit, in fact it would be advantageous to our society if we ramped up our call outs of assholes just like you.

You post too angry, too often. Infracted.

ACTUALLY THEY ARE NOT OPTIONAL IN STORES! If the store has a mask requirement you are required to wear the mask in that store!

Federal law? When did Congress/Senate pass it and President signed it?
any store or business is allowed to require that you wear a mask if you want to use their services! The airline industry in particular will have yuo arrested for not wearing a mask in flight! try it and find out.....

Conservatives have this bizarre view of what freedom is. Just because you are no longer a minor doesn't mean nobody can tell what to do ever again.
I'd really like to get their take on why they even bother to obey any traffic rules. After all they are just there for public safety. I should be able to choose.

Your ego has the actual potential to get people deaded.

We don't need to chill, you need to take things more seriously.

You can still get infected if you've been vaccinated and you can still transmit the disease.

You're a complete idiot. You apparently are completely oblivious to those that owe our IRS millions...
How do you know he isn't a moron? Why are you able to tell the difference between a complete idiot an a moron sometimes, but not other times? What about the difference between a complete moron and an idiot? Is that 4 different things?

No mask, no fly, federal law.

No, he's an internet tough guy, don't you know? He's not subject to pussy federal laws....even if the feds can drain his bank account one day and let him know it's going to happen the next day. Or prevent/deny him a home loan because he owes the feds money....or his house is seized...or his vehicle...or his investments.

But he's the tough guy who can bullshit his way through and around any internet forum.....and will melt like the snowflake he truly is when any govt official looks his way.

I live in Texas too and haven't seen any stores where they're optional. You're just being an asshole to every worker there. They have no way to tell which unmasked deplorables have been vaccinated and which haven't.

Try HEB, to be exact they never enforced it even during the time it was required
