Something I don't get about the mask mandate lift and resulting lawsuit(s). I thought businesses could basically enforce whatever they want when you are a customer or on their property - short of "you can't eat here you're black". Like, if there wasn't a pandemic, couldn't a business still enforce a mask policy and ask you to leave if you weren't wearing a mask? How is that any different than a restaurant telling you "I think you'd be more comfortable in this, sir"? Maybe I'm misunderstanding where the lines are drawn?

Have you really never seen a sign that says "No shirt, no shoes, no service"?

According to Wright, she traveled to Galveston in a recreational van to cross off items off her bucket list. She wanted to close her Bank of America account and the Central City Boulevard location was the only one that was open to her that day she was arrested for not wearing a face mask.

She got super cunty at the end, but she probably wouldn't have garnered so much hatred and gotten arrested IF at the beginning had she just said, "Look, I have money here, the governor has lifted the mask mandate, I need to make a transaction and I'll be on my way.  I don't know all the rules and exceptions to what Abbott said, but I really need to make this deposit before the end of the month."  She could even have slid in a little, "This is bullshit, I have rights." and probably have gotten away with it, and maybe even allowed to finish her transaction.  But nope, had to make a scene.  

But here's the thing.  There's posters on here salivating and plotting to go into an HEB or Academy or Home Depot or gun range or whatever and not wear a mask so they can make their little stand about their Freedoms!  That's fine, as long as you're not violent or coughing on people, go live your best life---you don't have much to look forward to anyways.  But pro tip........a few places you do not, under circumstances, fuck around and virtue signal your magatry.  Chief among them...a fucking bank.  That's just ultra-level stupidity. 

Do you understand, if a policeman is called to a bank during pandemic or no pandemic, because somebody refuses to leave...they can basically just walk in and start blasting whoever matches the description and there isn't a #BLM member that wouldn't be like, "Yeah, dumb bitch wouldn't budge...she gonna need to take a couple rounds for the trouble."  This isn't like a Wal-Mart or Hobby Lobby situation where somebody is gonna wrassle' with the shift manager.  You make any kind of weird physical standoff in a bank, and the police come, either comply immediately or there isn't a hard-left progressive liberal judge in the country that's not gonna rule, "Uh, you didn't listen to an armed cop in the lobby of a fucking bank where you were already asked to leave by staff?  You're fucking lucky cuffed and 30 days in jail is all you're looking at instead of 2 gravediggers tossing dirt onto your casket."  

We're all surly assholes here.  We've all mouthed off at authority now and again.  But you keep your fucking mouth shut, head down, and comply when it comes to banks, airports, border crossings, and government buildings.  That ain't the place to play armchair Libertarian.  

Living in deep red rural Texas, we have plenty of opportunity to run across these morons who think they are so much smarter than the average bear.    They are dying to get people to confront them.  They also tend to talk louder than anyone else, to draw more attention.   

But hadn't thought of the bank implications.  That's a really strong FAAFO deathwish there.

I suppose it's worth noting, too, that she wasn't arrested for violation of some mask law.  She was arrested for trespassing or disorderly conduct as a result of refusing to leave when the business rightfully asked her to mask up or GTFO.

Slight, but meaningful distinction, as Abbott has purported to forbid any enforcement/penalty for mask rules/ordinances.

A Colorado man accused of disrupting an Alaska Airlines flight from Seattle to Denver by refusing to wear a mask and then standing up and urinating in the cabin faces a federal charge of interfering with a flight crew and attendants that carries a maximum term of 20 years in prison and a possible $250,000 fine.

The FBI arrested 24-year-old Landon Grier of Canon City after the flight landed March 9, according to an affidavit filed in U.S. District Court in Denver.

The affidavit by FBI Special Agent Martin Daniell III, who interviewed Grier and crew members, says Grier appeared to be trying to sleep but swatted at an attendant when she asked him repeatedly to put on his mask, as required by the Federal Aviation Administration.

A passenger later summoned attendants because Grier was urinating in his seat area, Daniell wrote.

The agent said Grier told him he had several beers and “a couple of shots" before boarding the flight, fell asleep on the plane and “awoke to being yelled at by the flight attendants who told him he was peeing."

“He stated he had no recollection of hitting the flight attendant and didn’t know if he was peeing," Daniell said.

Grier made an initial court appearance on Thursday. A federal public defender was appointed to represent him. He was released on $10,000 bond pending his next court appearance set for March 26.

Public defenders do not comment on pending cases, and a call to the U.S. Attorney's Office in Denver for comment wasn't immediately returned late Friday.

In a statement, Alaska Airlines said: “We will not tolerate any disturbance onboard our aircraft or at any of the airports we serve."

If the toddler model is the approach that cops should take, he should have guided her in singing a song about how angry she was, let her say bye-bye to everyone and everything in the bank, and then told her how proud he was of her for leaving without a tantrum.

I went to two restaurants in University Park/Preston Hollow the last two days and there were signs saying “masks are recommended”, and nobody wore masks, and nobody was harassed about the lack of a chin diaper.

This makes me think if you think masks are stupid at this stage or the game, go to insulated bubbles where people more or less agree with you, there are pockets out there.

Of course you’re the kind of stupid knob who thinks “chin diapers” is funny or clever. I’m sure everyone here is surprised at this revelation. You probably tee-hee’d when you typed it. 
 

newsflash, what you just described is generally what people do and have been doing. The problem is that stupid dipshits love showing up to safe “bubbles” and throwing fits and whining about their freedoms while having zero understanding of the legal rights of business entities. Shockingly you know what we don’t see? Video after video of someone masking up and headed to a bar or church and acting like a lunatic demanding people mask up and screaming that they’re killing people.

Side- or related note.  The cop handled her arrest mostly pretty well, I thought.   I do somewhat question the need to cuff and detain her, as I think her offenses were mostly of the cite-and-release variety.  This said without condoning her behavior.  I enjoyed watching her being manhandled in a sick way, but that's not really what we want from our cops.  Deserve's got nothing to do with it.

 

HOWEVER, there was a point at which she was not respecting his authoritah and he went off a little.  Even said "stop resisting."  One wonders if she was a darker hue if things might have gotten a little (or a lot) worse.

THIS is what got her cuffed. She could have peacefully walked outside and had her protest on the public sidewalk, but she chose to challenge the right of a business to enforce security measures on their property. She's obviously some kind of anti-capitalism terrorist.

But it also so happens that right at that point, he did kind of go "respect mah authoritah" on her.
