They are gonna have a little dictator at each entrance to insure we wee peasants are following their dictatorial policies. This won't end well workers are going to get hurt. I was already irritated with their asinine lines standing in the heat and rain so I rarely went to the store this will insure I WON'T be spending any of my money there. Wife just went this morning to get groceries and she says she won't be going back either. This crap is getting COMPLETELY out of control. Plus easy way around it is you aren't allowed to wear a mask if you are carrying a weapon.
It's about time somebody took leadership on the national stage. If the Trumpenfuhrer won't do it, then it's up to the corporate citizens it seems.

Their property, their rules. Good for them. Guess the new tagline, is "No shoes, no shirt, no mask? No Service"!

Private property. They have the right to refuse entry to anyone for any reason that is not covered under discrimination laws.

P.S. there IS no legal exemption. It's not covered under the ADA.

The grocery stores here post a security guard he just tells them can't come in without a mask. I bet most of you didn't know assaulting a security guard charge is enhanced in most states to a felony the same charge as assault on a police officer.

I didn't know until a friend told me this story who worked security got sucker punched by a drunk college student at a burger restaurant here called in and out burger. It was a hang out on weekends they had problems with drunks who would get belligerent with the employees.

He went to court testified he felt bad about it because didn't even realize the guy had been charged with a felony thought would be just a misdemeanor. What kind of future would he have no employer going to hire someone with Felony assault convection. He had been a Marine late in the Vietnam war and a MP last year he was in he didn't think much the incident. This took place back in early 2000's he's in his late 60's now retired.

Just a warning anyone wants to get physical with security guard over wearing a mask your entering private property you have no right to be there if they don't want you there.

Given the amount of anger and hatred towards wearing masks, I think there would be people stupid enough to punch a security guard. People with a deep amount of anger won't think. They'll shoot and ask questions later. Some people are that crazy.

Costco delivery works great. Pick-up at local grocery stores works well too. Worth it to me to tip well and not have to be amongst the loonies or wear a mask. Plus those who need jobs at Instacart or the grocery store make a living.

Happens with riots too. I shudder in disgust/sadness when I think about what's going on. I think "just wear the freaking mask". But then, I think about why said persons won't. Said persons really don't care.

I guess you missed the bold part?

Ooooh, tough guy. If everyone wore a mask and stayed home as much as possible, we'd be finished with this in a few months. But because of tough guys like you, we're stuck with this pandemic for at least another year. Thanks a bunch.

The employee at the front door is a representative of the store manager. Failure to follow their request to leave the store means you are trespassing. In Texas, failure to leave after a request from a business representative means you've committed criminal trespass, with a year in jail and large fine as punishments.

You have no clue about herd immunity in this situation. No one does, since the doctors and scientists are still working that out.
