To the Editor:

“If a law is unjust, a man is not only right to disobey it, he is obligated to do so.”  —Thomas Jefferson.

Does it make sense that big box stores, such as Lowe’s, Walmart and the like, are permitted to be open at 50 percent capacity (in some cases the equivalent of 800 people), while “mom and pop” stores are precluded from hosting 10 customers?
