Letter to the editor: How about we all make our own mask decisions?

Tribune-Review | Sunday, May 23, 2021 9:00 a.m.

I was both saddened and amused by the front-page story in the May 18 print edition with the headline “On? Off? Mandate on masks confuses.”

Let me propose a novel idea. How about letting people decide for themselves whether or not they want to wear a mask? It is called freedom. But since our freedom has been taken away for over a year, and people are so used to the government (at just about every level) telling them what to do, most of us have lost the ability to make independent choices.
