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
