Clearly they are. Maybe they shouldn't have that freedom, but they do. In the United States, a lot of law enforcement agencies have announced that they will not enforce stay-at-home orders, curfews, or mandatory mask wearing. Businesses can call the police to kick people out if they don't wear masks, but not because of some new mask-related law -- businesses already had the legal right to kick people out if they refuse to leave. If you're seen on the street without a mask, the police might ask you to put one on, or they might say nothing at all, but they are very unlikely to fine you. All of those things are true in California, which is considered to have some of the strictest restrictions in the country. Most other states are less strict.
