I read the most ignorant thing I& #39;ve seen in several days. I read it and couldn& #39;t help but stare in amazement and then laugh. @CityofJonesboro is choosing...to ignore basic science and put its residents at risk. https://www.kait8.com/2020/07/06/jonesboro-does-not-plan-adopt-governors-face-mask-ordinance/">https://www.kait8.com/2020/07/0...

@CityofJonesboro Director of Communications Bill Campbell, an absolute braintrust: "[....] we’re not where some of these other cities are. We don’t want to get there."

Hey, Bill. The city council PREVENTS US from getting there by PASSING A MASK ORDINANCE. This is basic science.

Bill Campbell, Director of "Communications" for the @CityofJonesboro: "& #39;[....] it’s unenforceable law right now. You can’t have police force running around looking for people not wearing masks. They’ve got jobs to do.& #39;"

Words mean things, Bill.

The Director of "Communications" for @CityofJonesboro wants us to know that the @JonesboroPolice have BETTER THINGS TO DO then help venues enforce masking policies so underpaid service workers don& #39;t have to do it.

They& #39;ve got....jobs....to....do.

If Bill Campbell, Director of "Communications" for @CityofJonesboro, thinks that helping a city enforce a masking ordinance to protect public health is somehow NOT part of their job....what does he think their job is?

Well, I& #39;ve got some ideas.

This is what I mean when I say: don& #39;t self-reject yourself out of a government job/public service. Look at this anti-science ding dong missing the ENTIRE point that masks will do the EXACT THING he wants, but he doesn& #39;t want to "burden" the police.

Anyway, guess I& #39;ll prepare for our upcoming outbreak. August/September in Northeast Arkansas is going to be WILD.

Y’ALL

I put this thread into an email (well, a more polite version I guess) to the only two city council members who have been responding to me and HOLY MOLY, they’re going to try to walk this ordinance onto the agenda TONIGHT!!! https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😱" title="Vor Angst schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Vor Angst schreiendes Gesicht">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😱" title="Vor Angst schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Vor Angst schreiendes Gesicht">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😱" title="Vor Angst schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Vor Angst schreiendes Gesicht">
