Who enforces mask rules in Carroll County Maryland?
Who enforces mask rules in Carroll County?
CORONAVIRUS With coronavirus pandemic ongoing, who enforces mask rules in Carroll County? By SHREEYA AGARWAL CARROLL COUNTY TIMES | JUL 05, 2020 AT 5:00 AM
You notice that many of your favorite local businesses have begun to open their doors after months of closure, per state orders to limit the spread of COVID-19, and have decided to stop by a local business. You walk in and are surprised to find that no one, not even the store owners, are wearing masks. Concerned, you wonder what you should do.
In such a scenario, ideally you would call the Carroll County Health Department rather than the police, according to Andrea Hanley, a spokesperson from the Bureau of Environmental Health at the Carroll County Health Department.
“They [police] are not the ones getting complaints about masks. We’re the ones doing the investigations,” she said. “If we have a problem during the investigation, we will follow up with the police, and that doesn’t happen very often.”
[…]
According to Gov. Larry Hogan’s April 15 executive order, “all customers over the age of nine are required to wear Face Coverings while inside the enclosed area of any Retail Establishment or Food service Establishment.”
And “all Foodservice Establishments shall require staff who interact with customers (including, without limitation, delivery personnel) to wear, and those staff shall wear, Face Coverings while working.”
Those who failed to comply with the orders could be subject to a $5,000 fine or imprisonment not exceeding one year.

April 9, 2003 - National styles of pulling down statues.
War stories Toppled National styles of pulling down statues.
By Fred Kaplan Posted Wednesday, April 9, 2003,
As I write this, 100 or so Iraqis are gathered in Baghdad's
Firdos Square, trying to tear down an enormous statue of Saddam Hussein…
[…]
I am reminded of 1991, when the Soviet Union collapsed and
the Baltic nations took their own hammers to their most prominent statues of
Lenin. Much could be discerned about national style from the effort. In
Lithuania, the most emotional of the republics, the crowd just went at it,
using all tools at hand, bringing down Vladimir Ilyich with great gusto. In
Latvia, some engineers assumed the task, judging the statue's material, pulling
up a crane, and taking it down very systematically. In Estonia, the town
leaders coolly hired a Finnish firm to do the job.
