Amish?
Can’t say I approve but I will say I understand.
“Secondly, this incident points to the danger law enforcement officers face every day,”....then don’t interfere with people’s rights.
Yep
And remember women are equals and deserve equal force back, if they want to get violent. Batons are deadly weapons.
Nobody has a "right" to not wear a mask in a private establishment that requires masks.
The civil rights act says so.
> A woman struck a sheriff’s deputy in St. Louis in the head with her own baton... <
I can’t quite figure this out. Did the woman take the deputy’s baton, and then strike the deputy with it? Or was the woman carrying her own baton the whole time?
The video of the incident froze on me. Old computers will do that. So I guess it’s time to upgrade from Windows XP to Vista.
No, no NO! Windows 95 will live forever and DOS is still king.
I use Win95 as a station controller for my milling machine. Works great!
This is all “so last year, already.”
> DOS is still king. <
You’re right. DOS is boss.
(I think I was supposed to put *.* somewhere in that line. But I’m not sure. I hope my post runs anyway.)
Can i buy a few nouns? Instead of pronouns?
Private property owner by private business. Same as no.shoes no shirt no service. The civil rights act only deals with race and and later was amended for gender and now sexual orientation. As long as the policies are applied equally with regards to those protected attributes the owner can require any and I mean ANY reasonable conditions for services rendered. I could choose to require every person entering my establishment to wear a pink tutu perfectly legal as long as I apply that to men women trans nobinary asexual white black yellow red. My civil Attorney has won cases for night clubs that require no hats or no jerseys or no tennis shoes which the POC argue is discriminatory he has won many a case as long as the owners apply it equally to all. In NYC there are places that make you wear a collared shirt tye and sport cost just to walk in they could make you wear a head bandanna or a feather boa for that matter it’s their.sovereign right as the owners to do so don’t like it your only recourse is do your business elsewhere. I managed a night club for years and we routinely used the dress code to keep people out and had theme nights where if you wanted to enter you had to be in our chosen costume some nights we had masquerade ball and yup you wore the mask we required or take a hike we had lines around the block no shortages of willing customers. This was Austin home of the victim class we got sued once by some POC that felt out dress codes were wrong they lost badly and in Texas loser can be countered sued for legal costs which we did won a large judgment and made sure that news was put out lest anyone else feel.froggy
It also says that the deputy reached into the car and began “pummeling” the woman with her baton before the woman got away.
I have a feeling Ms.Sheriff may have been a little on the overzealous authoritarian side.
> Nobody has a “right” to not wear a mask in a private establishment that requires masks. <
I agree. It’s sort of like the sign some restaurants put up: “No shoes, no service.”
Maybe you don’t own any shoes. Maybe shoes hurt your feet. No matter. If you don’t like that rule, go eat somewhere else. Or get some groceries delivered, and eat at home.
It’s an outdated idea for the me-first generation. But property rights should still mean something. No shoes, no service!
A gas station isn’t a private club. It’s as public as it gets.
I’d be interested to know what law requires wearing a mask in this situation, get right down to it.
County health officials have very broad powers to require such things in an emergency, but they are only temporary powers, not open ended. This is sort of like congress has failed to pass a budget for years and years now, they are called “continuing resolutions”. This sort of jiggery-pokery puts law enforcement is a horrible position of enforcing nonsensical “policies” that aren’t criminal statutes.
She got da powwa.
