Return to common sense
In reading of the behavior of many air passengers in the age of the virus and common sense, I'm astounded to the acts of idiocy, but not surprised in the age of politically inspired tribalism.
Perhaps, with a New Year, new directives at the federal level and more public shaming of behaviors jeopardizing the health of our fellow men, women and children, the conversation and behaviors can move to that of civility and common sense.
The bottom line is up to you. Take the initiative and help to stop the insanity, one mask at a time. Do it for yourselves, your fellow passengers and the flight crews, like health care workers, dedicated to your personal safety.
