Do you mean to imply that laws actually have to be passed by an elected legislative body then signed into law? Who came up with that idea?

That’s just darn inconvenient for junior despots.

The law is probably some sort of Emergency Powers act or Health emergency act, that gives the governor powers to issue Orders.

Or you can just violate the order, and your lawyer can explain to you why it’s legal.

So ‘orders’ suspend the Constitution?

No.

Properly enacted legislation under the consitution that provides emergency powers to protect the public in a health crisis have been deemed constitutional by SCOTUS over a hundred years ago.

So put your mask on.

In a sane world one wouldn’t need a lawyer to explain illegal edicts from despots to United States citizens. Keep wearing your mask and depriving your brain of much needed O2.

on a side note- saw a funny today

Rabbits hop around and live to 8

Dogs run and live to 14

Turtles do nothing and live to 150

Lesson learned

Of course. If sheep allow themselves to be eaten by wolves, then what good do dogs serve? When sheep get guns and start killing wolves, they tend not to be eaten....or take orders from dogs.

I saw nothing about wearing a mask, but if you need one,

wear a cowl. No one screws with Batman!

I’d like to see the person who can force me to wear a mask if it’s not Halloween.

An Executive Order carries the weight of "Law" and is a power of a duel elected Governor>
But I can find no such law (Executive Order).
All I can find is Governor Reeves strongly recommending we wear masks, and NOT a requirement to wear a mask in a grocery store.

Now I did find DEMOCRAT Meridian Mayor Percy Bland said businesses and shoppers MUST wear face coverings when the stores open.

I don’t care what a couple black-robed tyrants believe the Constitution says. It was written in simple terms by men that weren’t perfumed princes. Only lawyers can screw something up so bad that they could decide some words mean the exact opposite.

sic semper tyrannis

There was a guy that wore a KKK hood while shopping. That took guts. It was a mask.

Law? There ain’t no stinkin’ law right now other than what Comrade Governor tells you it is.

Tyranny!

I’m sorry, I didn’t realize state laws were above the Constitution. When I was in the Air Force we took an oath to defend the Constitution and it was drilled into our heads that it is the SUPREME law of the land. So the gov of Mississippie can shove his Emergency powers malarkey up his, well you can finish the sentence.

You did not read your own link, did you ?
All that says is that the Governor has the power TO DO Emergency Orders.
But it does NOT SAY that Governor Reeves actually made an Executive Order REQUIRING customers to wear masks.
Gov. Reevers has NOT required customers in grocery stores to wear a masks.

Only some Democrat city Mayors have (and they don't want Trump reelected).
