Mask Related Conflict is Scary
I'm not sure if this counts as street harassment, but mask related conflict has been just as scary during this pandemic. Yesterday morning, I was wearing a mask while pumping gas, and a white pickup truck that read Wildfire Pipeline Contractors along the side pulled up at the pump kitty-corner from me. The guy got out. He wasn't wearing a mask or carrying one. He gave me the most evil smile and was shaking his head as he walked by. He walked into the gas station, which had a big sign on the door saying "No Mask, No Service." As he walked back to his truck, he stared me directly in the eyes, took a deep breath and said, "Love this morning air!" He must love huffing gas, because that's all I could smell. I'm not sure if he was given service or not. Maybe he wasn't, since he pulled away from the pumps before I did. As he was leaving, I could see that his license plate number was PKQ 8071. Wildfire Pipeline Contractors is a company out of Gallipolis. Seems possible he was the owner.
