Delta flight returns to gate after travelers refuse to wear
masks

From CNN's Jennifer Selva

A Delta flight was forced to return to the gate when two of
their
customers wouldnt wear masks, according to Delta Air Lines
spokesperson Emma Protis.

Protis told CNN in an email that Flight 1227 on July 23 was
on its
way from Detroit to Atlanta when they were forced to turn
around.


Sucks for the airline but the passengers knew the rules
before boarding.

Sucks for the other passengers who have to suffer because the
airlines
chooses to turn around instead of stipulating on the ticket
if they
don't wear the mask, they will be subject to a fine of some high
monetary value.

I personally think masks are stupid, but I still ask
the proprietor if he wants me in a mask or not.
I do not want him persecuted by the state. And it
is common curiosity


So you do not know if your state requires masks? That seem
pretty clueless.
'
With the plethora of state and county laws, ordinances or executive
orders it is sometimes hard to figure out if this is enforceable
law
or just a suggestion. I think some if not most of these mask
cases are
going to be quietly thrown out because the "mandate" is so
ambiguous
that it does not rise to the level of law. They don't even say what
constitutes a "mask" in most cases.
I make the store owner happy because I support his right to serve
anyone he wants and not to serve anyone he doesn't. Outside, ****
you.


This state structured it so nobody gets arrested and a business
might
get a $100 fine at the most. The city cops declared the day after
the
shutdown enforcing it wasn't their job. A real arrest would mean
examining the legal basis. It's easier to cow the sheep, to mix a
metaphor or something.

Like you, I support the store owner's right to refuse service to
anyone,
including people looking for a wedding cake with two grooms on it.

I have mixed feelings about that. One the one hand, I feel people
have
the right to be assholes. On the other hand, the situation is
similar
to black people, and if we hadn't taken a stand there would still be
"colored" drinking fountains.

Of course, this comes from someone who does not find homosexuality
unnatural or disgusting.

So basically you only believe in the Freedom of
Association if you are not offended?

As I said, I have mixed feelings. On the one hand, cake-bakers
philosophically
have the right to refuse service. On the other hand, I don't see
why they
should care if the cake has two grooms on it. The law protects the
minority
from the tyranny of the majority.

Cindy Hamilton

Agree. If a baker did not want my business, I'd not force him to take
my money either. Plenty would. Fine line though as you point out
refusing service to black people.

If it was my bakery, if they paid in US funds I'd make any cake they
want.

Long time ago we had a German salesman, also Jewish. A customer visited
the plant and made many disparaging remarks about Jews. When he left,
the owner as "why did you let him talk like that? He replied, I have
the order and his money

I forgot to mention that I think the infamous wedding couple should just
have found another baker or had their cake without a message written on
it. Who writes stuff on a wedding cake, anyway?

Well. Google images informs me that I am behind the times, as usual.

Cindy Hamilton


Worse yet. Several other baker offered to do it for
free. This was a deliberate, targeted persecution.




It's not as bad as the Canadian tranny who is suing a waxing parlor
because they refused to wax his balls.

I imagine someone will do it if they wax people's assholes.
