Man kicked out of Wisconsin store after using his shirt as a ‘mask’
This bellyacher was no match for workers at a Wisconsin store who kicked him out after he pulled his shirt over his face – exposing his big gut — and insisted it was a mask, according to a report.
The sartorially challenged customer was caught on video at the LDF Country Market on a Native American reservation in Lac Du Flambeau, where he refused to wear an actual mask amid the pandemic, Newsweek reported.
“There’s an irate white man on the reservation trying to boss us around right here folks,” the worker recording the incident is heard saying, prompting the customer to ask why “race” was dragged into the situation.
“This is what they look like. You were asked three times
and you didn’t listen. You’re on a sovereign nation, if you don’t like it, get out,” the employee replied.
“Please leave, sir,” another employee tells the stubborn shopper, who is wearing a US Marines cap. “You have to purchase a mask at the door or you have to go home and get one.”
But the man keeps holding his shirt up to his face.
“This mask is fine, what’s wrong with this mask? It’s the same as yours,” he says.
“That’s not a mask,” a few staffers in the Lake Superior Chippewa reservation area tell him.
The local tribal council recently passed a resolution that allows only permanent residents on tribal land during the coronavirus pandemic, Newsweek reported.
“We are requiring consumers and staff to do the six-foot distancing and masks are required within the business,” a store manager told the mag.
“We do have the right under tribal reservation codes to enforce the mask requirement and we’re also within our rights to call tribal PD to escort out people being rowdy or refusing to follow our guidelines,” the manager added.
After fruitlessly asking the employees to provide their names, the customer was later removed by authorities.
