It's still mind boggling to me that enforcing public safety procedures can be interpreted as any sort of tyranny. He purposefully goes out of his way to not wear a mask, but still takes the time to keep one in his pocket to just see how far he can go breaking the rules.

Mask mandates from governors are not, in fact, rules. Executive orders are not laws. See https://gavinhoward.com/2020/10/executive-agencies-cannot-ma... .

If a business decides to enforce their rule, well, then we both know that it would be best that I do as little business with them as possible.
