Starkville board and mayor pass resolution

[GTAdawg]

Requiring all public businesses to have their employees and customers wear masks.

Seems over reactionary? Prior to the special call meeting today I had not heard any possible discussion of masks being required. Seems like this may have been rushed through without considering public and/or expert opinion.

 

[Grove Sh*tter]

$1,000 fine. They called the meeting without alerting media or giving adequate public notice so no one would be there to protest. Sneaky mfers trying to innovate revenue

 

[Grove Sh*tter]

Against the advice of the medical staff at OCH, too, according to the missus

 

[msstate7]

Philadelphia did the same

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Effective when?

Any period for discussion?

This may get messy!

 

[The Fatboy]

You ******** can't wear a damn mask around other people?

 

[ckDOG]

Not masks!!!!!

Might as well just burn the constitution. Outrageous.

****

 

[Grove Sh*tter]

Starts tomorrow thru May 10

 

[THE Bruce Dickinson]

Against the advice of the medical staff at OCH, too, according to the missus

Hearing crickets from the "Trust the doctors" crowd from a month ago.

This new resolution is complete ********

 

[Mayor of Little London]

Philadelphia did the same

Mississippi or the other one?

 

[HamSammich]

Oxford started this ordinance this past Saturday

 

[msstate7]

Mississippi or the other one?

MS

From what i have heard was it can only get into your body through nose, mouth and eyes. Is the mask to protect you or to protect someone else. Either way if it is in the air and you walk into it and you have a mask stands to reason it would still get into your eyes.

Reconvening in the morning to require swimming goggles

The UK is very densely populated though, so there's good reason for the mask requirement.

Meridian’s went into effect today. Hattiesburg has had one for a few weeks now

 

[hatfieldms]

Memphis announced the same thing today. Will probably be required throughout most of the country

 

[Jeffreauxdawg]

The biggest thing a mask does (other than N95) is serve as a visual aid/reminder that we are out of the thicket, but we're not out of the entire woods yet....

 

[ezsoil]

Harris County, Texas (Houston) passed it last week and the police union said they wouldn't enforce it...

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Starkville mayor wants to be Oxford mayor...

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Did they specify what a mask must consist of?

Just wondering ?

I'm not again' it, but people passing thru, may not get the message,

or have the required mask.

 

[RocketDawg]

I've never understood how police could on their own decide which laws to enforce and which ones not to enforce. Their job is to enforce the laws, not decide which are good and which are not good.

 

[paindonthurt_]

Is this a “law”?

No laws that I know of involve mask wearage. All of this mess is unconstitutional as hell. The lawyers will sort it all out in the SummerFall.

 

[bruiser.sixpack]

I would assume Dead President Masks like in Point Break should be sufficient wear for visiting banks.****

Are they planning on supplying the masks? It's not as easy to get them as I thought.

Well no.... this is gonna end well...

 

[Bobby Ricigliano]

Link?

Actually, in Hattiesburg, employees of businesses who deal with the public must wear masks, but it’s not required of customers.

it’s called officer discretion and that’s with all laws. But don’t worry we wouldn’t come to your house and take your guns either if they told us to take them because we believe in the constitution.

Speaking of...who will be supplying the necessary hand sanitizer at the doors of all these bidnessess that are gonna be reopening tomorrow (today)? That **** is scarce.

Hell no.

 

[jethreauxdawg]

This is one of the few areas I’m not an expert in**

But doesn’t requiring a mask open up a bunch of OSHA requirements. Are these places, including city hall, prepared for that?

 

[thatsbaseball]

The bigger story is that anyone would be surprised by this ........

 

[WilCoDawg]

That’ll be weird for restaurant customers.***

I haven’t seen this. Where is this news? If true, I love our extremely obese mayor telling us how to be healthy.

 

[tribaldawg]

I have supported local business since all of this started. We have eaten out several times just because we knew the restaurants were hurting for business but I will be taking my business to West Point and Columbus instead of wearing a mask everywhere I go. If enough people do the same the city will get enough pressure to allow people to make their own decisions. The same decisions supported by local health officials versus out of control aldermen.

[M R DAWGS]

I’m not sure how this mandate would hold up to a challenge. I’m no lawyer, but a city mandated requirement to do business somewhere seems like a major overreach of power to me.
