Lubbock Businesses Getting Close to Civil Disobedience


"But Peter and the other apostles answered and said: “We ought to obey God rather than men."
Acts 5:29

Interesting, via. Chad Hasty:



Highlights:

  • At least two Lubbock businesses "have spoken to an attorney and are ready to reopen."
  • Will take sensible precautions.
    • eg. Limiting the # of customers in the store at one time and so-called "social distancing."
  • The Lubbock city council is picking winners and losers.
    • Big box stores are ok, but small businesses aren't.
  • Amarillo is allowing small businesses to operate with sensible precautions.
  • It's time to do more.
  • "If Amarillo can do it, so can we."
  • "This really is a stand that people are making."
Last week, we suggested that lawsuits would soon be appropriate.  What we're seeing in Lubbock is, honestly, further than we would go personally (for now).  However, it's very interesting that others feel this way.

Bottom Line: The status quo can't go on much longer.
