The inconsistent one. You might as well say "I support masks in Mexican restaurants, but not Italian ones."
The first question is obviously why? From interviews and social media posts I've seen, the overwhelming majority of kids don't mind wearing masks and understand the reason why. The only ones freaking out are their overbearing helicopter parents showing up at school board meetings and having completely unhinged public freakouts.
If I were a student, that would traumatize me way more than a piece of cloth on my face. (Just from embarrassment).
My position on masks in schools is based on extremely low rates of death, hospitalization and long term complications among kids, and not really giving a crap about the unvaxxed adults they may infect.
But it doesn't really matter for purposes of the point I'm making whether I'm right or wrong about that. The fact is, if you support one restriction, you don't have to support every possible restriction, and likewise if you oppose one restriction.
I simply object to the notion that you either have to place no value on liberty, or no value on safety. I just think that is wrong.
