Texas supreme court - mask mandate
- Thread starter pdawg10384
- Start date
I can see a lot of kids just bit wearing masks so they can do in home learning. They didn’t think that one through.
Wear masks or don’t is the right policy, which is actually no policy on masks at all. That way there’s no lawsuits and people fighting with each other. The mask mandate side is looking for a fight.
Thank you. I love it when people pull crap out of their ass and pretend its Gospel.
Yep. The first round of division was nothing compared to what this is going to do to the community. Just learned that they’re mandating masks for Chap Fest tonight and alot of the cheerleaders/football players aren’t going because of it. In the end the Supreme Court will settle it and the Super/Board is going to go along with whatever is put out by the state. They are not taking an independent stand on anything anymore.
I enjoy the sport and played a lot growing up, even into HS. Just busting balls. Like I give my BiL a ration of shit because he never played or cared until business school and a bunch of his classmates, especially from Europe and England were die-hard. He just up & adopted ManU because several buddies are die-hard for ManU. We actually went to the Manchester Derby a few years ago when City played United at Reliant. But, I give him shit for just randomly deciding in his mid-20s to become a hard core ManU supporter.
I still think that for the sport to be truly popular in the USA two things need to happen: 1) end the incentive to tie games. Ties are unnatural and unsatisfactory and antithetical to the American psyche; and 2) try to reduce the acceptance of flopping. Nobody like seeing a guy barely touched roll around like some sort of D-list actor.
Having read the governor‘s order and the relevant portion of the Texas Constitution, I don’t believe this interpretation is correct and the state Supreme Court will rule in his favor as it has already done in a couple instances.
Not based on the ACTUAL effectiveness of the vaccines but I am glad to see people returning to normal and being in the stands for games.
He is operating under emergency authorization. If that is an issue the legislature needs to change it.
The Supreme Court just issued an order in Abbott's favor temporarily re-establishing his mandate while it considers the issue. This is known as "foreshadowing."
I believe there is a movement in Tennessee led by Candace Owens to start withdrawing the children and the monies from the schools.
Having masks optional/voluntary in our schools makes it too easy to identify the weak, liberal students. Leads to possible ridicule from the stronger, patriot children.
That’s why these urban Democrats want to mandate masks for all.

Defunding the schools? That’s dumber and a more disconnected argument than defunding the police. This topic has made people brain dead on both sides of the argument.
You should hire the most expensive attorney out there and start the lawsuit yourself. You will almost assuredly win.
Oh, I agree that the court will probably rule in his favor and that this would be the ultimate resolution no matter which course was initially followed. I just wonder why the AG wasn't asked for a ruling in the interim, which is how such disagreements were always handled in the past. An AG opinion backing the governor might have cooled things down a bit.
In a rational world you’d be correct but I don’t think an AG ruling would draw much water with these activists trying to flout the law.
Any on you on here without kids under 12 starting school tomorrow need to STFU. You have nothing at stake in this argument.
Their taxes pay for the schools, though, so aren’t they shareholders in a sense? Again, 12 and under are still at low risk with delta even if media hype says otherwise. .06 out of 100,000 deaths.
What about teachers? Do they have say? What about anyone that works in the schools?
Yet Dallas county has been out of ICU beds for kids for nearly a week now, and school hasn’t even started yet.
Sorry, but paying taxes versus sending your kid to school is comparing apples to elephants. Luckily, the vaccine should be ready for kids 5 and up by November-December.
do you ha w any kids under 12 starting school tomorrow? Are you a public school teacher? If no to both, then STFU.
My kids started school this past Tuesday.
And contrary to what’s being played in the media, doctors are seeing 3x as many kids with RSV needing and taking up hospital beds than covid. At least in the Houston area. Covid hospitalizations for kids are still like 0.045 per 100,000. same as they’ve been the whole time.
You do know your kids can wear masks tomorrow at school?
I heard from my sister in law who used to work at Parkland and still has friends who work there that most of the kids in ICU are from RSV, and not covid. Just figured I’d give that point of information.
I hope that’s true. I am vaccinated, but tested positive for Covid last Tuesday. I’ve been in isolation since, and I’m currently sitting in the guest room listening to my 5 year old daughter cry because she can’t “kiss and hug her daddy”. I really hope that she isn’t exposed at school because we’ve gone to great lengths to not let me expose her to the virus.
This should not be political, but unfortunately, it has become incredibly political. As a father of two young children, I could care less what your politics are. I just want to keep my kids safe.

Hey pal. I'm only reacting to the shit my politicians are handing down to me and my children. I would give my left nut to meet your dumb ass in an unmarked location. Please give me the time and location to find YOU.
My youngest turns 7 on the 25th and was supposed to start school this past Tuesday, same as his 11-year old brother, but couldn’t. Persistent cough, fever up to 102’ish (controlled w/ meds), and lethargic with loss of appetite for almost 4 days. Thought it was covid but nope, RSV. Picked it up from day camp the week before (4-6 day incubation period) and got an email about an RSV outbreak. He’s 99% back- fever been gone since Thursday and the cough is getting better each day. Appetite and attitude back 100%. Pulse O2 never dropped below 95.
His pediatrician had ”several kids who thought they had covid but tested negative and were positive for RSV.“

Can you imagine being as unhinged as 1997 is? Who the F would give an unapproved vaccine to a child when their risk to Covid is 1/6th to say RSV or even the seasonal flu?
I get that and I hope you get better but my boys have been repeatedly exposed, even to Delta, and nothing. Covid is not what’s driving normal, healthy kids into the hospital these days. It’s shit like RS.
Now, if your kids have some issues (friend’s kiddo has diabetes so they’ve been really vigilant, and rightly so) it might warrant more precautions but your kids are more than likely at a tiny, tiny risk.
why an unmarked location? Can’t you not fight in public? why would you give up your left nut? You’re weird.
Yeah. You’re right vaccines are the scourge of the earth. So bad for humanity.
I’m vaxxed friend.. I’d just never give it to a child when being in a car is many multiple times more dangerous to a child than Covid is. Reminder: The vaccines are still not approved and on emergency authorization. Why are we forcing that one people again? Vaccines don’t stop the spread anymore so it’s a choice that impacts ONLY the person
And masks literslly do nothing other than virtue signaling bullshit to the Low-T screechers in society
Take a deep breath - you’re in too deep mi amigo
