I have prepared a little document expanding on what I said about my city, but I don't want to subject anybody to it that doesn't care to read it. PM me if you are interested. I have since spoken to a city cop and got more details.

That incident at the convenience store was far more severe (ALMOST fatal) than most, though those confrontations are not uncommon here, largely dependent on the neighborhood in question. I live in the farthest northeast corner of Akron there is and the people here are considerate and care about others, with very little attitude. When asked politely to mask up, most comply. If wearing a mask for 3 minute sin a Dollar General will keep YOU safe from me, I am happy to. I don't get why people will rush to a burning car to extricate someone trapped in it also won't wear a mask for 180 f'ing seconds to potentially save that same person. I hear the argument of "What are the odds I'd give someone Covid", yada yada yada. Well, what are the odds of you happening upon a flipped car in flames? Besides which, you don't have to have Covid to carry it.
