I had to check to be sure. Yep - it’s heavy with so-called anti-vax bias. The truth is that people across the spectrum are cranky, not just the folks mischaracterized as anti-vaxxer.

The story focuses on Mr. DiDonna’s mortification and not on the fact that he instigated the confrontation. The story continues with anecdotes of people upset at the reaction of customers when the are acting as jackboot agents for the totalitarians. What did they expect to happen?

...recently at a Winn-Dixie supermarket in Florida, John DiDonna worried that a nearby shopper was standing too close for Covid-era comfort. DiDonna asked him to take a step back. The shopper, he says, stepped even closer.
Gosh, it's almost as if the left was given something to worry about and blame on other people that didn't pertain to the destruction of all our rights by the DNC and its Antifa and BLM stooges.

My son went to a Trader Joe’s to get his grandfather some bread that he likes. He was wearing a mask but the lady behind thought he was standing too close to the lady in front of him. Instead of just saying something, she grabs his arm from behind and tells him so.

He told her that she was so concerned that she had to touch him to tell him. He said he started coughing and hacking after the incident to freak out the lady.

I had to take the nasal swab test today to see my parents in assisted living. New rule. Tested negative, but have to do it each day to see them. I did not misbehave, but I thought a lot of bad words at them.

This was going on before Covid. A couple generations of kids not hearing the word “no” hasn’t helped.

Are they implying the tantrum thrower are all Democrats because they are the one that continually create problems and then blame someone or something else for it.

Blame the politicians that want to discriminate.

They are ignoring the science from the CDC that says the “vaccinated” can spread Covid as much as even more as the “unvaccinated”.

They are ignoring natural immunity too.

Now, hey you, mister, can’t you read?
You’ve got to have a mask and jab to get a seat
You can’t even watch, no you can’t eat
You ain’t supposed to be here
The sign said you got to have a vaccination card to get inside...Ugh!

Adults are being treated like children.

And they’re sick of it.

The brainwashed are throwing tantrums. The eyes-open are protesting and resisting (sometimes smartly and sometimes not).

I call BS on this story. In FL you can wear a mask, or not wear a mask. Personal preference. Anyone who’s not used to that by now isn’t a Floridian.

If he wanted space he should have made his own space by Getting-TFO of there rather than asking others to accommodate his wishes. There’s a ton of curbside pickup and delivery services in FL. IOW a BS-story.

I’ve had Covid and have also been vaxxed. I’m 100% behind Gov. Desantis’s Let-the-Liberties-Reside-With-The-People philosophy. He puts the liberties with the people not the politicians. This is why the tyrants hate him so.

Liberty.

#18 a cousin of mine got angry after getting the non vaccine, his sister refuse to. I guess he is waiting to die from the side effects and is angry about being lied to.
