Masks required by law

[RED]

The City Council of Little ‘Ol Fayetteville AR just voted to require people in public places wear masks.

I wear a mask anytime I am in a store or close to people I don’t know. That is my right but I’d rather die from the virus than be dictated to by a damn City Council. I don’t live in Fayetteville but I shop there, and have close friends and relatives that I visit.

What if the City Council votes that everyone must wear hats and go barefoot?

Our rights are under attack and total dictatorship is looming. The “Progressives,” want to control your life from cradle to grave.

Now is the time for sane people to take charge.

The sh1t has hit the fan.

Happening all over the country! True object isn't disease control, but SOCIAL control.

The science shows that individual masks protect other people as opposed to the wearer. Simply put, the masks you see are the ones protecting you.

It's fair to ask if there is a medical /scientific justification for the policy. And there is. So wear the friggin' masks or stay home.

Think of it like a curfew, but with masks. You guys hate it when people break curfews, would never do that yourselves.

Rather amusing .....

two years ago when I lamented local government preventing me from buying a six pack in the aftermath of a hurricane most readers here came to the defense of that local government decision .

So what gives ? the analogy of the hat and barefoot ....pullleeeeze

Gov't control in a "Free Nation'! Loss of your freedoms! example., by law you have to ware a seat belt or a helmet on a motorcycle. Freedom of speech, you had better think about what you want to say before you say it! Someone will turn it against you or take you into court/lawsuit! etc..

With respect, there is no constitutional guarantee to citizens of not being required to meet a state determined standard to exercise the privilege of driving. There is no constitutional guarantee to citizens that we can say anything without repercussions, only that we have the right to speak politically without a govt. imposed restriction or penalty. That protection does not restrict how a employer, neighbor, etc. will react to statements political and otherwise that we might choose to make. Sincerely. bruce.

do you have a preexisting condition that would cause you bodily harm from wearing a mask?

if so, you can claim that , but don't have to tell anyone, based on HIPAA , and not wear a mask,

The point I was trying to make is; Our freedom of choice is being slowly taken away. My choice not to wear a seat belt, who gets hurt,me. As for masks, that's for health of others. Their is a difference.

NO difference if the "others" have their own masks, & you're not spitting in their faces. There are "extreme circumstances," such as people packed like sardines in a subway car or airplane cabin, but applying what might be necessary under "extreme circumstances" to ordinary, normal, circumstances is wildly irrational.

Fanatics are NEVER satisfied when allowed unrestricted liberty to practice their particular fanaticism--they always insist on forcing others to comply with their fanaticism, because it validates the fanaticism.

We have our opinions and I have no problem with that.
