King Roy strikes again...new mandates

I’m just saying a no mask is a misdemeanor while what use to be felony drug possession could become an infraction. Personally I don’t really care if some druggie “Darwin’s” his genes out of the pool I just don’t lIke 5he fact not wearing a mask is being criminalized.
More to the point, as I stated upthread, the penalty is akin to carrying inside a posted establishment.

I’m not trying the minimize my distaste for the mandate or the germ who mandated it, I’m just trying to present the facts without introducing additional hyperbole into the discussion.
 
Someone please enlighten me. I thought state house wrote laws and state senate confirmed them and THEN the goobernor signed into law. One man can write law and call it a class 2 misdemeanor for non compliance, or am I wrong?
He's basically playing fast and loose with the emergency powers statute, which carries established statutory penalties for non-compliance with emergency orders. The road to Hell is paved with "good" intentions. We got a good peek inside that gaping maw during Katrina, if you recall.
 
I should dig up more old inhalers and leave them in my car, in my backpack, etc... I usually keep one around, but i sometimes actually use it...
 
I said that to a person here once and it cost me a stint in time out.

but I’d be glad to.
You know me well enough to know I’m not planning to put my dukes up with you. Just pointing out that at this late date I have an opinion, and we can yell about it in person. Maybe over shrimp and grits.

You probably yelled at some yankee stranger on here.

Is that not most of the problem in America now when we get to the root of the problems?
 
........But IM glad he's not closed any businesses down again yet
That worries the hell out of me.........

Worries me too because I figure that will be the next thing to happen. If I had to guess, I'd say late December or early January.

Masks? They want masks? I will be interested to see how the girls in the bank react when I walk in like this. Being somewhat of a gentleman at times, I do plan on removing my hat indoors in the presence of ladies. My white hair might give me away.

... and don’t forget black gloves ... the black gloves would seal the deal 😈
 
Most of the Sheriff's in the mountain counties have said they're not gonna enforce mask mandates.
If a Karen calls them they have to show up, and you'l likely end up talking about the new hellcat..Dodge or Springfield..but you're not getting a citation.
Of course there's always gotta be the douche guy who wants to argue with the cops regardless and turn a no-big-deal encounter into an arrest.
 
I'd like to see a map, kinda like the 2A sanctuary counties, of LE who won't be enforcing the retarded swamp donkey mask mandate.
 
2.4B. Face Coverings for Professional or Collegiate Athletes Under a COVID-19 Health and Safety Protocol. As an exception to the other provisions of this Section, Face Coverings are encouraged, but not required for professional or collegiate athletes if (1) they are strenuously exercising or recovering from exercise and (2) those athletes are training for or participating in a sport that is under the oversight of a league, association, or other organizer that required teams and players to follow a protocol for reducing risk from COVID-19. These athletes must wear Face Coverings, including on sidelines and in practice, at any time that they are not strenuously exercising or recovering from recent exercise.

Aha. So, if I pay myself a dollar for recovering from strenuous face-palming exercise, myself I'm good to go ?
 
Ok, I read it.

So he’s not closing restaurants and bars, but making it mandatory that you mask up except when you’re taking a bite. This can be enforced against the client or the establishment. Wait staff will be told to gently remind customers, customers will be unhappy, customers will leave smaller tips, customers will stop going to restaurants, restaurants will close. But this way it’s not our fearful leaders fault.

That is pretty much how it is now. From what I have seen most people on both sides have been easy going and polite. And me and my friends are tipping more since we know the restaurant‘s pain. My guess is in most places this is a non issue. But there will be a jack ass somewhere.
 
It’s amazing isn’t it. There have only been a few Republicans I can remember winning in NC. The legislator was held by democrats for almost 100 years except the last decade. The eastern side of the state is mostly democrats. 4 metro areas determine victors in NC.

Sure isn't the east side. Red all over here. Its the VA border and places that all the northern folks escaping the policies they put in place moved to.

EO 147 and wording from NCDHHS guidance [bolded for emphasis]:

C. Exceptions. This Executive Order does not require Face Coverings for-and a Face Covering does not need to be worn by-a worker, customer, or patron who:
1. Should not wear a Face Covering due to any medical or behavioral condition or
disability (including, but not limited to, any person who has trouble breathing, or is unconscious or incapacitated, or is otherwise unable to put on or remove the face covering without assistance);
2. Is under eleven ( 11) years of age;
3. Is actively eating or drinking;
4. Is strenuously exercising;
5. Is seeking to communicate with someone who is hearing-impaired in a way that
requires the mouth to be visible;
6. Is giving a speech for a broadcast or to an audience;
7. Is working at home or is in a personal vehicle;
8. Is temporarily removing his or her Face Covering to secure government or
medical services or for identification purposes;
9. Would be at risk from wearing a Face Covering at work, as determined by local, state, or federal regulations or workplace safety guidelines;
10. Has found that his or her Face Covering is impeding visibility to operate
equipment or a vehicle; or
11. Is a child whose parent, guardian, or responsible person has been unable to place the Face Covering safely on the child's face.
Anyone who declines to wear a Face Covering for these reasons should not be required to produce documentation or any other proof of a condition.
Children under two (2) years of age should not wear a Face Covering.

D. Application of Exceptions. Under this Executive Order, all North Carolinians will be on the honor system about whether or not there is a reason why they cannot wear a Face Covering. Everyone in this state is asked to tell the truth and - if they are healthy and able to wear a mask - to wear a Face Covering so that they do not put other people at risk of serious illness and death.
My dad said I can claim #11 any time I wanted to...because he’s pretty sure he couldn’t safely get a mask on my face. 😂
 
We probably need to drive to west Kentucky to check on our boy trcubed.

I don’t think he misses us as much as we miss him.
I talked to Terry a couple months ago. He’s doing fine and likes living back home close to family. I do miss him!
 
I'm not wearing one again. Tired of the contact dermatitis on my face and the sneezing & sinus infections fr being forced to wear them for 12 hour shifts at work. Wonder if I'll have to ask anyone the likelihood of keeping their jobs when HR is writing the checks for violations of the ADA.

I'm not reading that screed. What, if anything, is stated about Thanksgiving at another household?
Walking the dog?
I'm not wearing a mask to walk the dog nor am I wearing one to/in a friend's house.
 
I pretty much do what is on this list because I basically work and go home except for picking up parts. The death of bars and restaurants is almost assured now. I’m going to Kansas tomorrow. Not sure what to expect in that state.

was it kansas last week....forgot about covid for the week i was there....very few masks and everything seemed to be opened for business.

drove through Illinois and that state still has their rest areas closed..

Illinois is so broke that even if the rest areas were open the toilets would be plugged or missing and the trash bins overflowing. Keep on driving closed or not.

Wonder how much all these Dim Goobernors have invested in 3M and other mask manufacturer?


It's not about money for them. It's about power. They're drunk on being able to tell people what to do and it's going to be a fight to claw that back from them.

Exactly. They love being able to tell people how to live.

We can't go in our bank without an appointment....all business through the drive through....

I have so far been allowed to walk right in and deal with the ladies as usual. There were no pens out for writing deposit slips, but most other things seem to be available. I have worn a regular mask rather than the one pictured above.
