City council members of Keene, New Hampshire, voted on Thursday to continue to enact regressive coronavirus policies, opting to mandate masks in indoor areas yet again. However, the Keene City Council took the policy a step further, choosing to fine “repeat violators” up to $250.
On Thursday night, in a 10-3 vote, city councilors opted to reinstitute a mask mandate for all indoor spaces in Keene. The rule, which goes into effect Monday, applies to all ages ten and older, with exceptions for those with certain disabilities. However, while previous mandates across the country would often target businesses for failure of compliance, the Keene City Council voted “to fine repeat violators rather than penalize businesses that fail to enforce the new rules.” That includes a verbal and written warning upon the first infraction. The second time, the maskless individual will face a $100 fine, and the following violations rise to $250.

By what authority?
Baby steps to tyranny moving into big boy steps now. Remember: Democrats have a history of throwing US citizens into concentration camps.
Libtards should be fined every time they pass a stupid law 🤪
Pfascists march first and ask questions later.
I’d hound those members. The first instance they don’t have on a mask it goes viral.
So much for “Live Free or Die”.
IIRC, Keene’s largest non-public sector employer is a health system.
So the city council just passed a muzzle ordinance fining people for refusing to wear muzzles that are sold in boxes warning that the muzzles are not for use in healthcare settings.
Okaaaaay....
The council needs the revenue from the fines to balance their budget over the coming years.
Bu of course, administrative costs will eat up most of the revenue.
They shall have had the satisfaction of “Doing Something”.
The main reason, along with Peterborough and Dublin, that the Pelosi Potted Plant, Anne Kuster keeps being re-elected in District 2.
Dipshit Woke!
In response, the Republic of Bears is voting to fine moronic comittees that don’t use brains.
Sue, sue, sue!
And destroying the economy every time they get into office.
What ever happened to the New Hampshire state motto: LIVE FREE OR DIE?
> Keene must be woke central
Yep. They also have really high property taxes

That motto is dead up there.
Don’t care to associate with those types.
It is. Across from Brattleboro and just north of MA. Home of a woke state college. And can you love a school that doesn’t have football?
They do have a good pumpkin fest in the fall. So…there’s that.
