I think i heard on Rachel that the Governor of Mississippi is overriding those local communities

[still_one]

In Mississippi that have issued stay at home orders, and have overridden those local orders, telling workers and business to go back to work

[Eliot Rosewater]

5. Hard for me to fathom

[chillfactor]

3. that is exactly what the

6. My 86 year old grandpa lives there.

He’s not in great shape and getting this virus would be horrible for him. Fuck Republicans, they’re basically murderers now.

7. I wish we could help him, his governor is guilty of murder.

I wonder when someone is gonna get mad. I wish the whole country get angry about this stuff...

9. I hope your grandfather has someone who can deliver groceries and other things

and shelters in place in the meantime

That Governor is awful

[Turin_C3PO]

11. Yes, he does, thankfully.

His partner is 20 years younger than him and takes care of him well. I’m sure she has him quarantined for the foreseeable future. Yes, that governor is just horrible.

8. I saw this on Rachel and still have

not gotten my jaw off the floor.....OMG!!!

10. Same here

[radius777]

12. Despicable. We need to put strong federal laws

in place to deal with pandemics, so some state/local dumbass can't put people at risk for political reasons.

Pandemics are a systemic problem that requires a national solution.

[napi21]

13. YES! He not only refused to issue a stay at home order, but he over rode 3 different city mayors

orders who had issued them. Surely Mississippians know better and won't listen to him.

[Ilsa]

14. Can the businesses decide on their own to

Close? Are any of them owned by people of decent character?

[superpatriotman]

16. Blame his constituents

He is a symptom of the disease

[still_one]

17. Is it the fault of those who didn't vote for him?

[bobbieinok]

The City of Oxford called an emergency board of aldermen meeting on Wednesday to determine how their previously passed resolutions fit with the governor’s.

“We’d read the governor’s order and believed from our first reading that it would supersede the resolutions we had in place,” Oxford Mayor Robyn Tannehill said in the meeting. “We felt that ours would not be able to stay in place based on the language in the order. But I just got off the phone with the governor, and we’ve come to the conclusion that all our resolutions can stay in place.”
