I wanted to rewrite this post because my last one had a lot of on-the-fly edits and I think I can make this cleaner.
Here's what we should do:
-
Find people in your neighborhood/community who are sick of masks and want a change and invite them to participate. Start a facebook group or get people on a massive text chain or something like that.
-
Decide the dates and times you plan to do this. Get people to go in groups of at least 15, the bigger the better. That's disruptive, and frankly, people can go in all day in different shifts and keep it going.
-
Decide on the grocery store you wish to target.
-
Go in with masks on, grab a cart, and grab all the perishable goods (meat, cheese, milk, eggs, etc.) along with a few other things to make replacing things more time consuming.
-
Place your list with the demands on the top of the cart filled with items (it will say "replace your 'masks required signs' with a 'we support your constitutional rights--no masks required' signs and then these actions will stop.")
-
Walk your cart to the front of the store.
-
Leave it there and go home.
This way we:
-
Avoid physical confrontations
-
Avoid being identified so we can be charged with trespassing, etc.
-
Create real disruption for these business owners forcing them to change.
Nope. That's what happened in the video posted earlier and it was a shit show. Best to go in with masks on, fill up your carts, drop the signs on top of your haul, then leave quietly. No noise. No fuss. Message sent.
I didn't see that vid. And yes, at this point we all have to take stand however we can. Good luck to you!
