A Family Dollar store security guard was fatally shot in Flint, Michigan, on Friday after telling a customer her child had to wear a face mask to enter the store, prosecutors said.
An argument began when the security guard, Calvin Munerlyn, 43, told Sharmel Lashe Teague, 45, that customers needed to wear face masks in the store, Genesee County Prosecutor David Leyton said at a Monday news conference. She yelled at him, spit on him and drove off, Leyton said. About 20 minutes later, her car returned to the store and her husband and son, Larry Edward Teague, 44, and Ramonyea Travon Bishop, 23, stepped out and confronted Munerlyn, according to investigators who spoke to witnesses in the store and reviewed surveillance video. Bishop shot him, Leyton said.
Leyton said Munerlyn was doing his job, protecting others and enforcing a statewide executive order. In Michigan, people are required to wear face coverings in businesses. Stores can refuse service to anyone who isn't wearing a mask.
"We simply can't devolve into an 'us versus them' mentality," he said. "We need to make a commitment as a community to do the things necessary to allow us to stay healthy and turn a page on this crisis together. Not for ourselves but for Calvin Munerlyn, who lost his life needlessly and senselessly."
Michigan State Police arrested Sharmel Teague but are searching for the two men, Special 1st Lt. David Kaiser said.
Social media posts by friends and family memorialized Munerlyn, a father of eight children, by his nickname: "Big Duper." A GoFundMe account for the family has raised more than $22,000, exceeding its goal. Latryna Sims Munerlyn, his wife of 10 years, told NBC 25 that he worked at the store for more than a year.

I posted way back on April 26th, that it wouldn’t be a bit surprising to see bullets flying by May 1st if this crap keeps up.
You posted back to me:
“...Bullets aren’t going to fly.
You are delusional....”
So it looks like I was off by what? About four days? Oh well, so much for being “delusional”.
Oh, by the way, IF they keep this BS virus crap up, it’s gonna get a helluva lot worse too. And for the record: I’m NOT for violence. I’m hoping and praying that this thing ends quickly and peacefully. However, when one is dealing with rabid damn communists taking advantage of a bad situation, it’s probably best not get one’s hopes up too far.
You have not one shred of proof that a mask stops the spread of this disease because there isn’t any proof. It’s self righteous misplaced. oral superiority like yours that spurs the anger.
After getting your conceal carry license, just remember, never go somewhere with your concealed weapon you wouldn’t go without it, unless you have no other option. - My first instructor.
“At the least, she should be charged with first degree murder. “
In Michigan, first degree murder is the most severe type of homicide because it is planned and was done on purpose with some type of evil intent.
it certainly did not apply to these folks
We didn’t start the fire.
Nature Medicine: Respiratory virus shedding in exhaled breath and efficacy of face masks
"Our results indicate that surgical face masks could prevent transmission of human coronaviruses and influenza viruses from symptomatic individuals."
So what’s the point of your post # 73?
No point usual?

Number of coronavirus deaths in Korea yesterday, where most of the population wear masks in public, was zero.
Exactly.
And I saw that they are predicting 3000 deaths a day in June. I don't see masks or hand sanitizer in the stores yet.
I realize we can't keep the economy closed forever. We're not prepared to reopen. So I think they are right. Probably on the low side.

“We didn’t start the fire.”
Correct!
Thanks, good advice.
You and who?
The Surgeon General made a horrible mistake. The context of his statement was to get the public to quit buying masks so that they would have enough for Medical workers and first responders.
Let that sink in for a minute. They work for Medical workers and First Responders, but not for the public?
The CMO of NY probably was just following suite.
Nature is one of the most respected Scientific publications in the world.
