We are adults and can make grown up decisions and don't need to be forced.

Making people wear a mask is illegal and totally uncalled for!

This mandate is wrong and completely unnecessary.

We are not against face masks. We against an order for face masks.
1. It puts excessive burden on businesses to enforce a policy or be fined. A policy that their employees and clients may not prefer. And businesses have already been hurt by the policies enacted in this town, this one makes it likely that they will suffer even more.
2. It puts undue burden on individuals with health conditions that prevent them wearing a face masks, as now they will be singled out and their HIPPA rights violated. Individuals with health or mental health conditions that prevent them from wearing masks are exempt, which is good. But this order creates an environment that draws attention to these individuals, singles them out and is likely to increase bullying and harassment toward them. By creating an order mandating masks, the people who won’t wear them are at increased risk for harassment and discrimination, and in this case it will be on the basis of their health.
3. It goes against the city's own suggestions. They have stated that masks are helpful when social distancing is not possible. So rather than focusing on social distancing (already listed in the current health order that is currently active) they are trying to add mask wearing even when people are social distancing as long as they are indoors and in contact with people (no mention of if social distancing is not possible). It's addressing the wrong issue.
