Here's What Happens When Someone Goes Shopping Without a Mask In a Coronavirus Hot Spot

A group of shoppers in Staten Island became angry when a woman decided to do her grocery shopping without a mask on. Instead of leaving her be, allowing to go about her day and practicing the group shouted at her, telling her to leave the store.

"F**k you! F**k you! F**k you!" one man yelled.

"Get out of here! Get out of here!" a woman yelled, pointing towards the door.

The man could be heard screaming at the woman. At one point he even said she was "acting like a dirty pig" for not having a mask on.

Some felt the need to point out that Staten Island is a more conservative area and a stronghold for President Donald Trump.

CONTEXT ALERT: Staten Island is the only one of New York City’s boroughs which @realDonaldTrump carried in 2016.

And these people are clearly not in agreement with mask avoidance. https://t.co/dpt5xdY884

Staten Island is NYC's most conservative borough. 56.05% voted for Trump in 2016. Population of 476,143 people and almost 800 confirmed COVID dead to this point. Extrapolated over the US population that's about 550,000 dead. So nah, they ain't havin it. https://t.co/LE8ugkrHJj

There is over a 99% chance that they are yelling at an entirely healthy person who poses no risk of infecting anyone with anything, but the lockdowners are so brainwashed and sanctimonious, they think this is a rational response.

It’s insane. https://t.co/P6q6fi9M8C

Mobs. The worst. Always the worst. Group think. All because of unfounded fear. Creeps me the hell out. https://t.co/ad4U5f67IP

The Karens have formed a militia. Scolding is their only weapon but it’s powerful indeed. https://t.co/OqtuuX5FtX

Truth be told, this is scary. We're maneuvering our way through a pandemic. We're in unchartered territory. People should respect others' decisions to wear a face mask or not. For all we know the woman in the video had a health condition that prevented her from wearing the mask. Assuming that those who don't wear a mask are being defiant is just as bad as assuming that those who do wear a mask are being overly cautious.

All of us need to do what we think is best for ourselves and others, whatever that may be. Pouncing on someone like this only creates more hostility and stress, which no one needs.
