I was kicked out of a store today for refusing to wear a mask. The girl (I’m guessing, always hard to tell with these people) handed me a mask as I walked in. I continued to walk without putting it on my face. She FOLLOWED me and, causing a scene, told me I needed to put it on my face or leave. I turned around, dropped the mask on the floor and walked out leaving my boyfriend standing there with his mask on. I’m DONE with this.
Side note: I also witnessed a man wearing gloves use hand sanitizer today... on the gloves. I’m fucking done. Get me out of this nightmare.
Let them call the police. Then what? C'mon anon,citizens are protected by the Constitution and Bill of Rights ... Exercise them!!!
I don't mean to sound defensive fren, but in every encounter I've had with police regarding mask mandates they will ALWAYS side with the business owner over the constitution or the bill of rights. I have a pocket-sized constitution and I they do not care, they have a quota to fill it seems...
I get it, really do ...
All I have to offer is to stand on the side of righteousness, of Truth, regardless of consequences? The darkness is in the midst of their last gasps, their Death Spiral (as Q said) and it's up to us, Patriots, to hold the line. Strap on that Armor of God.... Try it! Promise you'll see what it can do, what it does, what it accomplishes! You were Chosen for this exact timeline, we, here, all were. We have many jobs to do...cowering to the darkness is not on the docket. Love, Truth, Light, is...but you already knew this. Apply it, one teensy step at a time and watch as Light flows in. Our assigned task isn't easy, nothing worth having is... but this is, all whilst witnessing the most significant change in human history, playing a humble role along the way. This is why WWG1WGA
Its because it has nothing to do with the mask. It has everything to do with "Criminal Trespass" which the police can enforce. The property owner aka the business no longer wants you on their privart property and thus can have you criminally trespassed.
Um, actually no. What if the store decided to not allow black people. Store manager could say that he or she is afraid that person is part of a gang. Discrimination. The business is NOT considered private if it serves the general public. IF the business requires a membership to join, say like Cosco or a private golf club then they have been able to discriminate on who gets to join. But even that has been fought when excluding people of color.
You cannot discriminate based on race, gender, age, etc. So yes, if you tried to block 'black people' you'd be in trouble. But blocking someone because they won't wear a mask is their right as a private business. Your right is to not shop there.
A private business can implement any rules they want as long as they don't violate the usual 'gender, age, race ...' list. A federal or state building may have a harder time (not sure how the DMV handles this) but a privately owned store can do this. It's not the same exactly, but it's the same 'concept' as how Facebook can delete posts (or GA, for that matter!). Your constitutional right to free speech is all about not allowing the government to stop you, not a private operation. Same goes for masks.
