Anonymous Coward User ID: 59099350 United States 06/29/2020 07:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Judge even released a statement because of all the backlash Quoting: Guarnere [link to www-beaumontenterprise-com.cdn.ampproject.org (secure)] TEXT OF JEFFERSON COUNTY JUDGE JEFF BRANICK’S LETTER TO RESIDENTS: “I recognized when I entered the mandatory mask order that there would be people who would not like it. What I didn’t expect was the level of pure hatred and profanity laden messages that would make a sailor blush. That’s okay, it comes with the territory. What has been most disappointing to me has been the level of insistence by many that my orders are a direct affront to their constitutional rights. The U.S. Supreme Court, since 1794, after the Whiskey Rebellion, and times since has repeatedly held that these types of orders are allowed in certain circumstances and are, in fact, constitutional. Those who say otherwise are misinformed or are depending on Natural law, not Constitutional law. I have not asked people to lay down their arms, surrender their right to free speech or to be subject to having soldiers quartered in their homes, I’ve asked them to suffer the inconvenience of placing a 4x6” piece of material over their mouth and nose when in a business to protect their friends and neighbors. Individuals who seem to have no problem with a restaurant requiring shoes and a shirt go ballistic over a business asking them to wear a mask. “Eighty years ago, the greatest generation planted victory gardens, collected tin, rubber and steel, had food ration books and endured black outs, all to support the war effort. Their sacrifices were significantly more weighty than the inconvenience the present order requires. I want to thank a fellow county judge for reminding me of this. Today, a small minority is screaming that this is some kind of communist plot to overthrow the nation. When did it happen that we all became so focused on our rights and not our obligations to our fellow man and woman? Jesus said “Greater love has no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friends”. I’m not directing anyone to lay down their life. Galatians 6:2 says “Carry each other’s burdens and in this way you will fulfill the Law of Christ”. I love you, because that is what Christ teaches us to do. “I wear a mask not because I am afraid but because it is one way of showing that I care about my neighbors. There is a lot we don’t know about COVID-19 but all the evidence suggests that wearing a mask helps to prevent the spread of the virus. If wearing a mask prevents one person from dying, then isn’t it worth the minor inconvenience? If wearing a mask helps us get our country and economy back to normal, then isn’t it our patriotic duty to do so?” I received this in an email from an Orange County resident. It is a note he keeps in his pocket which he gives to people who make snide remarks about his wearing a mask in stores. “Based on my conversations with numerous physicians, directives from the president of the Texas Medical Association, the thoughts of the head of the Department of state health services, and many others in the medical field, masks can prevent the spread of the virus. Might we find out next year after peer reviewed studies that such is not the case? Can I find a YouTube video from an OSHA inspector that supports the opposite view? Yes to both questions. But we are in the midst of the largest spread that we have seen thus far, and to prevent another shutdown of “nonessential” businesses and to keep our hospital system from becoming overwhelmed I am acting on the best available information. Those “nonessential” businesses have families to feed and mortgages to pay and I want them to be able to do that without having to worry if they are at some point going to have to depend on unemployment benefits, if they are even available to them. I will lift the order as soon as I possibly can, but in the meantime I pray for your cooperation.” This judge sounds rather butthurt. And of course he uses the guilt trip saying you should wear it to protect others. lol these marxist douches use the same tired excuses over and over. |

Lol Quoting: Guarnere Yep. I’m here too. Casinos and gambling places are still open though. Places of business get fined if you don’t wear a mask inside.

(OP) User ID: 62641919 United States 06/29/2020 08:04 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | OP, go online and get a copy of the actual "order" to wear masks and look at the exemptions. Basically no one can be forced to wear them. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79072931 I'm in a city that "requires" masks and I've yet to wear one. I keep copies of our cities ordinance so I can show them I'm exempt. They never seem to tell the public there's exemptions. They are trying to get everyone to shame or guilt us into complying. Keep fighting the good fight:) Yea that's the first thing I did, you can claim medical issues and from my understanding you don't have to disclose your medical issues so that solves that lol Guarnere |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74591712 Cut large breathing holes in your mask. Yes, they do. Which causes brain damage. Another way to dumb down the public even more. I carry and wear my mask in stores as mandated but let it drop below my nose. As I tell many peeps over and over: covering the mouth protects you, covering the nose and eyes protect me: I take my zinc, d3, and C (zinc destroys all viral cell walls) so I'm not concerned. covering the mouth is enough. Having HUGE lung/breathing issues, this is essential for me...have almost fainted in the store a few x. I live in a blue state and I'd get crucified if I didn't wear a mask in a store. sev x I've forgotten my mask upon entering and get immediately lambasted. poor sheeple. then when I try to explain connection w/ wuhan/5*g and symptoms they glaze over and walk away. how our world has changed since 2000.

You would have to be fucking retarded to think so by now. Fucking idiots. Show me a single controlled study pricing the isolated virus can be naturally airborne, and a cough from an infected person is capable of 'infecting' a live sample via cellular attachment or osmosis - replicates, and induces symptoms in the sample. Just, one. Show me one or you admit you're a brain dead parrot that beekeeping in junk science fairy tales. |

I went into a grocery store without one on and saw several other people without masks too. The cashier was rude to me, but she checked me out. PUSH BACK. Don't do it.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 21096826 United States 06/29/2020 11:28 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Who said you wouldn't leave the store upon request, taking your money elsewhere and letting them know? You aren't telling anyone anything they didn't already know with police stances. But at the end of the day, stores are whores to customers money, just as you are a whore to your employers money - else they face bankruptcy. They aren't legally allowed to ask you your health status, else they risk a lawsuit. The guy at the front isn't likely intelligent enough, nor cares enough to enforce, or willing enough to stop you from entering the store. It could be detrimental to their health - per past encounters. Mob mentality works both ways. Most people WILL keep their mouths shut, and let people do what they're going to do. |
