The following report comes from WFLA:
No mask? No problem at one Hernando County restaurant.
The policy posted on BeckyJack’s Food Shack Facebook page is going viral on social media.
Owner Jesse Fox said he wants customers to know wearing a mask is not required for customers or staff.
We did a post just trying to be proactive letting everybody know what the mask requirement is or isn’t at Beckyjack’s because some people were coming in they were surprised that we weren’t wearing masks.

The viral post is a photo with the caption: “Face diapers not required! Everyone welcome.”
The post has been shared hundreds of times and commented on by thousands.
“It’s just very stressful and disrespectful,” said Lori Carroll who was in town visiting from Orange County. She said she was disappointed to see establishments not making customers wear masks.
I feel like I’m out of state almost. That’s how I feel because the whole not wearing the mask thing is absolutely ridiculous. They need to educate themselves.
Fox said it is not required in Hernando County and said he’s following the original CDC guidelines that healthy people don’t need to wear one.
I don’t feel like I am going against the grain. I feel like I’m using common sense.
According to the CDC website, the agency leaves decisions about restaurant mask rules to local governments.
The agency classifies outdoor dining as a higher risk, and indoor dining as the highest risk when eating out.
The owner of Beckyjack’s Food Shack says if the county required people to wear a mask in restaurants, he would follow that rule.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
“Face diaper” is absolutely true. This was, ironically, the same comparison I made in a recent report about the face masks and the rise of “maskne.”
I am glad that there are business owners starting to come out of the wood works and standing up to the nonsense. The more, the better.
However, that final sentence in the article is disheartening. It represents that the people are still willing to be obedient slaves if the government tells them what to do. And this demonstrates how the government can continue its draconian overreach on the people. The mentality should be, ‘I don’t care what the government says, I have to earn a living and stay healthy. I trust the Lord will provide for me.”
Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.
