When I first heard that there would be no penalties or fines for people who won't wear masks when the masks in all the public places become mandatory, I thought this was the most ridiculous thing I ever heard. They're basically setting a rule with no consequences. Instead Mr. King is confident that Islanders will do the right thing and wear one. Gimme a break. Some people won't do it cause there's no penalities if they don't. If you want a rule to be followed, then add a huge fine to it. Then everyone will take it seriously and mask up.
