Harris County Mask Fine Question

The fine for violation of the mask order is $1000 for the store. If I riot, go into Walmart without a mask and steal a flat panel, will they even call the police? Seems it's adding insult to injury...or injury to injury.

Enforcement of the mask will be a problem. How is Police going to the time to enforce paying customer to wear a mask.

More likely, local government will probably enforce threw spot checks with business licenses... meaning the store will need to require masks from customers to enter the store or ask the customer who is not wearing a mask to leave.

If the store does not require masks they risk loosing their business license, or fines.

I very much doubt they will enforce it. They don't have the people to enforce it.
I would think it's more of a scare tactic to get people to wear the masks.

I also think that any business should have the right to refuse doing business with anyone they choose and shouldn't have to have a reason to do so.

It was another political stunt. The last thing the cops need is the business community mad at them too.

Went to two convenience stores. No one had mask on. Not even the clerks.

My understanding is the Health Dept workers are supposed to write the violations up. Not the po po. Good luck stopping me for ID.

Has anyone found a signed copy of any document stating the subject matter of this thread? If so, I would appreciate a link to it so I can look at it. Just put the link in this thread for all to see.

My gym doesn't appear to be enforcing the order beyond checking in.

Most people, including employees, have the mask hanging off of one ear. What you'll notice is they'll put it fully on when someone comes in close proximity. I'm fine with that.

I'm sure you'll read it thoroughly but pay attention to the part that says enforcement doesn't begin until after 5 days from the day the order goes into effect, Monday the 22nd. Depending on how you count that it's either Friday or Saturday. The order ends on Tuesday the 30th unless the Abbot extends the state of emergency. Only then can comandante hildago extend her order.

It's a fucking joke, the enforcement period has the potential to be shorter than the time it took for the order to be put into place. 19th to the 22nd. I guess those three days we were all immune just like the last time.

Over the past few days, the number of deaths have decreased in Texas and Harris county. Can't find the stats as easily now. A yesterday in Harris it was 2 people dead from CV. Today its reported as 7.

Out of a county of over 4 million. Where they released prisoners and let the rioters break all types of COVID "regulations."

BULLSHIT!


Moco has seen no increases in cases in 10 days now. Did those residents not go to the beach or the river or have cookouts on Memorial day? Yeah, they did. Lake Conroe was packed with people.

So did they have more strict lockdowns? Mask orders? No, they didn't. In fact it's been much more relaxed there.
So what's the difference?

A couple hundred protesters marched to the courthouse in Conroe, knelt, prayed and disbursed peacefully. Hell the photos show them doing a pretty good job of keeping their distance.

60000 people in Harris County held a protest rally that went on for hours. The fucking police chief was high fiving people...But nah, The major cities and counties spiking has nothing to do with the protests.

.....and everything to do with opening too early and Memorial day, and opening the beaches."

BULLSHIT!

Now ... what's the other reason not to go to the beach?

Hot babes in small bathing suits who have been quarantined for six weeks and want a cold beverage and a hot dick as soon as possible? I can understand why some people would want to deprive a young man or an old man of such fun. Those same LOONS are probably afraid of statues and want to tear them down to relieve their fears.

Last week I stopped by a supply house to pick up a few things on my way to my office.
I walked trough the entry door and right in front of me were two tables….the kind you see people set up at parties that fold up. I have been purchasing from this supply house for about 30 years.

They were both about 4 steps inside. Behind the tables, about 15 feet back, was the service counter with 3 employees standing behind the counter. The table to the left had parts catalogs on it and the table to the right had a sign that said “Will Call” on it.

I greeted the people inside and told them what I wanted. I have been to this place probably 20 times before.

One of them spoke up and told me that I needed to call the order in before coming by. I have never done that before. They always have counter people and were happy to have the walk-in business.

Again, they told me to call my order in and comeback to pick it up. I asked them if they could not here me since I was only 15 feet away. Again, they told me to leave and call in the order. Then one of them told me to just walk back outside the door and call in the order on my cell and then walk back in and wait at the “Will Call” table for them to bring the parts to me.

I thought about that for about 3 seconds and then told all three of them that was the stupidest fucking thing I have heard all month. The one guy looked at me and told me that was there new company policy.

I told them I understood, and it is their right to set up any policy they wished. I also told them about my new company policy and that I will never spend another penny with this vendor. When I arrived at my office, I had a meeting with the purchasing people. We will never do business there again.

People are like sheep

Yes they are.....and good for you on taking your business elsewhere....

Unbelievable Tbone. 3 people standing there and none of them can take your order? That's just stupid.
I don't spend a ton of money with anyone. I'm not that big. I do have my own personal policy of spending money with anyone who makes me feel I am a bother to them. I don't ever want my customer to feel like that. They'll never have to beg me to take their money.
I haven't put signs on my doors yet but now that this mask order is extended through August I may have to enforce this shit.
I'm all for a company doing whatever it wants to do in regard to asking people to wear masks or calling orders in ahead of time or pretty much anything else they want to do in that regard. It's their business so they can reap the rewards or suffer the consequences of the satisfaction of their customers
