An idea on how to get your right wing friends to wear a mask

First, I probably should have thought about this before the Fourth of July weekend and second and I can never say this enough there is a monumental difference between right wing and conservative.

So you have a friend and you are worried about their behavior. How do you get them to wear a mask you are thinking?

So start out by asking them what if they decided to spend the afternoon cleaning their guns. And what they forgot was the last time they used them before putting them in the gun safe they forgot to unload them or check to make sure they were completely unloaded.

So discuss with your friend that he finds himself cleaning off the table, opening the safe and putting down the guns and not thinking they were loaded does so haphazardly at the same time Mom comes in bringing a sandwich. Bam! the gun goes off and kills Mom. Now ask them how they would feel about that. After you get pass all the I would never do that, I am careful etc... stay quiet and then say it is an accident. I am not saying anything wrong etc.. just wondering how you would feel if one of your guns accidentally went off and hit Mom or Dad or your siblings, friends cousins? some may get boisterous or blow it out of proportion, but stay calm and keep coming back till your friend admits they probably would feel pretty bad. There may be a few that have no humanity in them, but most do.

Once you get their attention about the gun going off accidentally because they didn’t know it was loaded then ask them what would happen if they were to shoot their Mom in a different way? And then work toward telling them not wearing a mask is like carrying around a loaded gun you think is empty. Why they ask. Because many people do not know they have Covid 19 since they show no symptoms. So if you are going around coughing and sneezing spreading these germs onto others then it is like shooting a loaded gun. Think of the mask as the safety. The trigger can’t be pulled if the safety is on, so the germs don’t shoot if the mask is on. 

Just a suggestion. I am not saying it will work, but for the general well being of all, it is worth a shot. Oh I didn’t did I.  lol
