Never really understood the limit 10 people? It only takes one to spread to another and another ect.........

Yes, and we have a great governor,Republican Charlie Baker a REAL LEADER that everyone respects. Everyone I see is cooperative , masks in every store. No whining about wearing a mask. Hope Golfcoast stays there.

'Flock' immunity is an unattainable goal for a country this large, but there are plenty who seem to want to try anyway.

Money, greed, control and power over others. It's sickening.

I think it’s a measure of risk reduction as opposed to risk elimination. Also, it’s a bit easier to enforce. Maybe.

Very unfortunate. Publix has always had such a good reputation for concern for their employees.

Your state sounds really awful. And I mean really bad. I wouldn't go there if you paid me and gave me a free house. Rest assured, there is pretty much zero chance that I would be coming to your state.

Newsflash - your constitutional rights are not absolute! Your rights end when they infringe upon the rights of another to be safe. Just as you can not smoke indoors in public places; you can not yell fire in a crowded room when there is none; you can not drive a car without a license; you can not operate a vehicle when intoxicated; etc., etc., etc.

People refusing to wear a mask may as well put a sign on their forehead saying - "I don't give a #h%* about you," because that is clearly what they're saying.

And yes, I am an expert on Constitutional Law.

They don’t live what they preach! It’s a fact but we don’t matter so they put on a show, and want to demand their regulations on us. Don’t dare violate their rules! Or else

The driving analogy doesn't work. Driving is not a right. It is a privilege.

Can't smoke indoors doesn't work either. There is not a constitutional right to smoke anything.

The only one that works is yelling Fire! in a theater. First amendment.

I am surprised a constitutional law expert does not understand that.

OP, I’m still giggling on your first post. Well put.

Have you actually read or heard that the mask mandates he plans is for outdoors even when social distancing can be maintained? That does not seem necessary. Personally, I will not be wearing a mask when outdoors and no one is anywhere near me. That is just unrealistic to expect people who are exercising outdoors such as jogging, to wear a mask when no one is around them.

I'm a huge proponent of mask wearing indoors in public but never have worn a mask outdoors when I'm not close to anyone.

Much easier to contact trace and let everyone be aware they have been exposed to the virus. That is the only reason I can come up with.

I was referring to you staying on the gulf coast and not come to TV. Unlike you I live in TV and Ma. You don't live here , have never even been here, so why are you even on this site? Trolling

Your understanding of the Constitution is very rudimentary.
Our government has the power to limit individuals' freedom under certain circumstances. Citizens are not free to do whatever they want if government regulations or laws are put into place prohibiting such actions. (Hence, the few simplistic examples I cited - unlicensed driving; intoxication while driving a motor vehicle; smoking where prohibited; inciting unfounded fear and chaos; etc.) The Supreme Court of the United States has long upheld the principal that virtually no constitutional rights are absolute. Most fundamental constitutional rights are protected by the legal concept of "strict scrutiny" but can also be regulated to achieve a “compelling governmental interest.” In addition, the Supreme Court has also found that constitutional rights can be regulated for an even less pressing reason - demanding only a “sufficiently important interest.” I have no doubt that a government regulation calling for masks would, at a minimum, meet the threshold of a "sufficiently important government interest".

I'd be happy to discuss the Constitution with you in greater detail.
