A local convenience store is asking patrons to remove their masks prior to entering the store. Hmmm, with the better part of a week before Halloween, isn’t this a little premature? Or, have I not noticed during other visits that this sign is always here? It is true that on most of my visits to this combination convenience store/gas station that I pull up to the pump, swipe my card, fill the tank and leave. Well if this sign is always on the entrance, do criminals actually comply, do they pull the stocking or ski mask off before opening the door? If all perpetrators worked this way, I’d put a sign on my own door asking they call the police to my address before they break-in.
