Cool. Arrest them then.
The law doesn’t go into effect until January 2026, and the text of the law seems to give agencies until July 2026 to comply. That falls between the 2026 primaries and general election—presumably that will make enforcement of this law an election issue for candidates for local sheriff and state office.
Will Gavin be able to convince the state police to arrest them?
No. Police across the board are optimistically 70% MAGA, more realistically 80-90%.
Will he let them keep their jobs?
Of course he will. He needs them to go do progressive stuff like sweep homeless camps.
Maybe not, up to a point where he won’t have a police force anymore. Even then, they’ll quickly get re-hired as white trash Gestapo, and then what?
They might be able to get hired by ICE, but I imagine them being hired by another policing agency when they have an open case against them may put a hold on their background checks.
It’s not uncommon for police to murder someone / do something terrible, get fired, then immediately move to the next town over and get hired. This is nothing.
Haha ICE doesn’t care about background checks
Maybe they can be convinced to arrest themselves. Trick them into standing in the sun until they all get a tan and watch the chaos unfold.
Interesting reversal from mandating masks…
We wear masks to stop the spread of germs and we take them off to stop the spread of fascism. I wouldn’t call it interesting, more like common sense.
Wearing masks against disease is still permitted under the ordinance. So are tactical riot gear clear face protectors. Only wearing masks to conceal identity is prohibited. I realize you’re just being a seal, arfarfarf, but I’m stating the facts for the sake of other readers.
The law makes an exception for medical masks.
