Having broached the topic of masks, I want to encourage dialogue between the polarities of the debate. This is challenging given the political climate of uncivil discord rather than civil discourse. With a vision of communities coming together to collectively find the truth and decide on policy, I offer a series of questions. I don’t want to give answers, but questions that re-teach all of us to engage in discourse which will lead us to that vision. Somewhere between the polar extremes, we will find the truth that we all need.
Besides that, taking this time allows your pulse to settle and you can remind yourself that a person stands (literally or figuratively) before you. Show them the respect of understanding their position before you respond. Then when you respond you are engaging in true civil discourse.

If only everybody had the sense to do that. Unfortunately, too many are like these people. See someone about to eat who is not wearing a mask – make insulting comments – throw hot coffee in maskless face – face the consequences with a punch in the nose. Call police and act like victim. Unfortunately, the maskless man chose not to file charges.
Fortunately, the men who were attacked showed incredible restraint by not mentioning to the mask nazis that it was all on video from the friend’s body cam. They waited until the police arrived to drop that gem.
