Well, I can only speak for my husband and I.  We don't do it because it's STUPID!  We need to get herd immunity.  The only way to do that is for people to GET the VIRUS!  Get over it and MOVE ON!  Go ahead and beat me up.  Don't care.

Our Walmart has in and out aisles only and marks showing the 6 ft range. I am grateful our walmart isnt busy like others I have been into. So we are able to keep 6 ft apart.

Indeed I see kids in groups playing around while parents interact with each other outside no mask at all just freely enjoying the day.

    It is a good question. NO means NO!
    They simply do not understand.
    Not closer than 6 feet from each other...
    It is that simple!

We have one store that has one way aisles with no passing that works pretty well. They may be lying to us, but I am not going to risk the few years I have left to live to find out. I am doing just fine staying home as long as I have the Internet.

I agree.  I do not think we are being lied to though.  It is a new strain with no cure, or way to effectively treat, so why risk it  If you do not want to wear a mask fine, but do not go into stores etc where they must work, they did not decide that you could pass the bug on to them.

I am happy most of the people are following social distance, but some of the young people just won't follow it.

Got food delivered from foodmaxx. It was very expensive 20.00 for fees and delivery, then a 17.00 tip. Didn't mind the tip. Will try another store next time.

Some people are completely careless, which is one of the reasons I am actually all for people being fined for not observing social distancing. Coincidentally, not too long ago, I passed a large congregation of people who were barbecuing. Really people?!! Really??!!

Barbecuing? That's nothing. You should see all the people not social distancing in Minneapolis right now. Lol!

I do not understand why people are making such a fuss over keeping 6' apart.  Such a simple thing to do to hopefully stop the spread of this nasty virus and get our lives back to some sort of normal.  I agree its not always possible in a store, but I see most people making an effort.  Of course, there are those who only care about themselves  -- I just back up when I see them on my once a week shopping trip.

People have always not taken this seriously and now look what's happened? 
Thousands are dead from it!
They won't believe it's real unless they or someone they know gets it.
It reminds me of Noah's ark.
No one believed him until it was too late and they all died from drowning.

Sort of eye opening all these people out protesting & looting/rioting and no massive outbreak is occurring... in fact, in New York there was not one Covid-19 death today.  No major outbreak occurred after all those smaller protests for the Opening up of states/cities several weeks ago either.

Were we all played as fools... i'm thinking "yes".  So foolish.

Except we were not all played as fools.  Some of us saw this a long time ago.
