Oblige to making a decision about being open? Sure - I’d suggest doing that
Don’t backtrack now. You made a statement big man. Follow through. I’m happy to not be behind a keyboard anytime. Say when.

Seems like that’s a decision that the business owner needs to make.
Yes. Let’s stay open so customers can be threatened in violation of an EO to shop.
But in this post you’re either:
1. Trolling
2. Being intentionally contrarian
3. Blindly ignorant
None of which are good.

I made the edit when I realized the point you were making.
I’d suggest calming down a bit

I’d suggest you STFU. Take my suggestion and I’ll take yours. Otherwise say when.

I’m sure most jury’s would allow it given the evidence. I would.

if judges can't interpret these rules at even close to a single interpretation, how the hell do we expect normal laypeople to interpret the orders "correctly"?
Hey man, the average Joe should understand what JBE meant with the order! It's not JBE's job to clarify what he's doing and what is allowed under an order he invoked. You act like he has an obligation to average Joe in Louisiana.

My original point was that the governor’s EO made many points about which businesses could stay open and which businesses must close. That’s it

It also made many points about who could shop at those businesses.
Read: no-one.

what's funny is Slippy, who is a "big law" attorney in Nola, made a thread about this exact situation before his firm had a meeting about it

I didn’t realize that we were only talking about walk-in retail shops.

Anyone who hasn't already gotten approved through the 2nd round of PPP funding is either an anomaly or was really lazy in researching who they should have been using for PPP submission. The 1st round was a disaster; the 2nd round falls on the business owner. Yes, it does take a little time to physically get the funds, but anyone who hasn't already been approved likely did a terrible job of applying.

I run a cleaning service that helps mostly medical professionals and the elderly. My incentive to stay closed is safety-- I lack PPE, and supplies are low. I am slowly starting back in Mid May. I sent an email out this morning, and only one person has responded-- so there's the probability that some people do not want me to return yet.

It's been a month and a half for many, which is unacceptable.

What incentive do you have to stay closed? Are they arresting people for opening businesses?
The economy is interrelated which is what concerns people. No reason to be open if your customer is closed

I've stayed open for the duration. Closing was never an option. frick the gubment.
My dad's store has done this as well. They were warned by police that the health department would order them shut down if they didn't close. That fines and arrests could take place if they didn't comply.
So they switched to "appointment only" and advertised it. They follow safety protocols (masks, gloves, etc) but have customers waiting in the parking lot.
He runs a furniture store. Their argument is that people need furniture sometimes, so they must be essential.

Let’s take a local business, Varsity Sports, for example. They have remained “open” but for call-in orders only that they’ll ship out to you or pick up.
No trying on shoes, consulting with Jenny and her staff, etc. There’s rarely no more than 10 people in her stores anyways. But they’d get way more business allowing fittings to take place.
I’m guessing they’ll reopen with this new “clarification”. Since apparently shopping at a non-essential business is considered one of the seven essential activities.
