Hmmm.  Would there maybe be resistance to a mask mandate because you, as Govenor, have already threatened to resist it?   If the Gov’s logic is true, then shouldn’t we get rid of speed limits so people aren’t tempted to speed?

It's weird how the GOP obsesses over how much they love law and order but they act like their hands are tied when it comes to people not wearing masks. Give them a big fine. It's not hard.

My mom tells me the same cousin I deleted from FB who posted about the Robert E. Lee statue has now vowed to never shop at Walmart again because they require masks. It's hilarious that that is the reason someone would boycott Walmart. She loves Trump so I'd think she'd care more about buying Chinese products.

 

I wish all Trumpers would boycott Walmart. Solves lots of problems, primarily the people of Walmart website.

I think not having high school sports is good news... unless you're one of the high schoolers or their parents. But hey 20 years from now they can say they would've won state.

In 1918 during the spanish flu epidemic...the same thing happened.

 

They threw thousands who wouldn't wear masks in JAIL.

 

After they did that, people started to comply.

 

But wait...who would do that now? Certainly can't expect the rotten, ne'er do well, ACAB, defunded police force to do that....right?

I think we should sell it like that and everyone will be on board

They are prioritizing certain students over others, as far as who gets in-person learning.  I don't have a link, just saw it on twitter.  IEP kids, kids that are behind in math and race, will all play a part.

Looks like we have a district here in Nebraska where the teachers (not all but some) are over it and have some wristbands made up, depending on the color you wear determines if you are cool with kids coming up to you or not...and they are not doing the mask thing (the teachers)

My daughter's college just cancelled in-person classes an hour ago. 100% remote learning. On Monday we will find out how many tens of thousands of dollars it will cost to have an unhappy 19 year living in her childhood bedroom, learning on the same screen she desperately needs to get off.

If you think she is unhappy now...wait until about October when you have the "nerve" to ask her where she is going and when she will be back home.  Ha
