A New Jersey Staples shopper with her nose poking out of her mask pushed another woman to the ground, breaking her leg, after being told to keep her uncovered schnoz six feet away.
The social-distancing encounter unfolded just after 3:15 p.m. on Wednesday at a Hackensack location, where the unknown assailant improperly wearing a mask walked up a 54-year-old woman using a copy machine, police said.

“From someone defending an attack on a woman with a cane...”
I have a cane. I’m over 70 — not 54. I’m not special, and I don’t expect people to defer to me. If I can’t handle being out and about, I would be home.
“...a frail old person...”
Uh ... she’s frickin’ 54. I sure as hell hope that’s not “old”.
No outside security cameras?
i don’t believe it.
Poor woman.
Wal-Mart quietly told their supervisors not to get into any confrontations over masks.
Retailers are demanding that the police enforce the mask diktats from their governors instead of the retailer being forced to. This needs to happen more often so that individuals can sue the governor in a class action suit instead of getting into a "customer service" complaint with a retailer.
Outside of illegal transactions such as selling illicit substances, the states' control of business licensing needs to be reigned in. Start with "bake the cake" edicts. Democrat Communist State governors have no right to interfere with the Commerce Clause of the U.S. Constitution.
I tried instacart, or whatever it’s called.
Not happy with it..
I’ll buy my own and get what IA want, not what they give me.
“The 54 year old woman had undergone a liver transplant last spring!!!”
Good grief! What the hell was she doing out of the safety of her house with WuFlu in the news? My friend had a liver transplant 10 years ago and naturally her immune system was compromised. When it was flu season, or she perceived any possible risk, she stayed home, took her Cellcept and Prednisone, and thanked God she was alive. She didn’t go out and bully people; she knew the world did not revolve around her.
That has been their goal from the beginning. Failed Democrat states such as California, New York, New Jersey, Illinois, Connecticut, etc. are willing destroy OUR economy (they were not part of the resurgent Trump economy since 2016 and more importantly have no way of joining in to any future economic growth).
A couple weeks ago I posted that the masks are the beginning of the slippery slope for burqas. I asked the mask lover if he/she was prepared to see the granddaughters ensconced in burqas ten years from now.
I was ridiculed.
“nobody came to help her ... nobody ... wrong side of town to be doing business if that’s the way they treat people.”
You don’t know how she treats the employees there. She could be a regular, and a total bitch. We don’t know. (But, even if she wasn’t minding her own business — which she wasn’t — I still would’ve helped her up in a heartbeat.)
Emeraude and Wind Song were my faves back then.
Yep. We tried instacart.
Never again. I shop in a smaller grocery store. Use the self check out most times. Usually not crowded.
“Fecking decorating them with BeDazzlers.”
Completely and totally insane. I saw one on TV totally encrusted with Swarovski crystals. That sucker has to be heavy.
How do you know she bullied anyone?
The governors of these failed Communist Democrat states need to be charged for every penny of lost business, every medical complication from delayed treatment, etc.
As for the hypocritical businesses, they can't have it both ways. If they tell you that you need to wear a mask for others' safety, especially in states without a corrupt governor's diktat, how can the same business think of telling you that you can't carry a firearm in the business to protect lives?
As for the mask wearing sheep, the slack for believing liars and the need to flatten the curve is long past. The mask wearers need to wear their masks FOREVER because there will always be viruses, bacteria, allergens, prions, and the like that can kill people.
Not gonna be tough and say it’s not worn me down, because it has, but not so much from the physical part.
It’s the psychological refusal to accept any of this hysteria and the overwhelming desire to stand in stores and scream “WTF is WRONG with your BRAINS??”.
My frustration level is massive, by now.
It’s not my nature to just submit, obey and bend a knee, especially when I do not believe the actual “event” warrants this much histrionics.
My mom stopped going out completely, when the fear mongering talking heads told her to.
Didn’t help that my sister who lives far away kept giving her gloom and doom on the phone.
[she once worked as a receptionist in a doctor’s office so she is a medical expert]
From the beginning, I did all I could to show her it was okay to go out.
I gave her masks and gloves to make her feel “safer”.
But until a couple months in, I was buying groceries and leaving them on the porch and waving to her through the front door’s window.
I wish my dad was still alive.
He raised me to be his backup in stuff like this and honestly, I’m having to fill his shoes and I’m just not good enough.
If TSHTF, I’ll be the one up on the roof protecting the other two.
That’s just crazy and it scares me but it’s what I’ll have to do.
I do not feel at all adequate.
I know you live in a much more lib-infested area than I do so yeah, the mask nazis are much bigger issue there.
Haven’t really had any peer issues, just a few guardians of the doors.
So glad all of yours were relatively mild but the poor CF guy...just wow.
That’s never good, flus or not.
Since her surgery was March, probably making copies of medical bills. Many libraries closed. Single mother of teens. As she lives in Teaneck, she went to closest one.
Big mistake.
You sound like a good daughter doing her best. Your dad would be proud of you.
So, was sickly “fax lady” bullying the knock down queen, or was it the opposite?
This story and thread replies are certainly an interesting take, on that question.
That’s what they say here...and then once people enter, out come their snoots.
Some just pull them down completely and then hurriedly start to put them back up when others come near.
Unless they hire Mask Enforcement Patrols to literally walk every aisle, every second of every day, it’s a useless order.
At this point, if they do hire MEPs to “walk the tiers”, I would not be overly shocked.
Add Maryland to that list, with a vengeance.
Hogan will happily drive us all into ruin if it hurts Trump.
