Woman Punches Teen Boy in Walmart For Not Wearing Face Mask

A middle-aged couple is under fire after they berated a group of teenagers and punched one of the boys because they were not wearing face masks inside a Walmart in Post Falls, Idaho.

"You guys are abusing your freedom. Stop it," the woman said just before hitting one of the boys in the shoulder.

The North Idaho News reports that police were contacted and the victim intends to press charges.

"You think this is cute not wearing a mask," the man said. "Get a damn mask and put it on your face."

The woman was literally screaming to anyone who would listen, "Their parents are teaching them this garbage."

Jill Dickenson, the mother of the boys in the video, told North Idaho Exposed in an exclusive interview that she infuriated by the attack. You can watch the interview by clicking here. 

"My blood was boiling," she said. "We live in a country that we have freedoms. We have liberties. For my kids to walk into Walmart and get apprehended and accosted the way they did - it's uncalled for.”

She was just as upset with the store's management.

"Walmart did nothing about it," she said. "The employees - some of them stood around laughing - mask shaming with this couple."

Mrs. Dickenson's son said he and his friends were asked to wear masks when they first walked into the store, but they declined to do so. The boys were still allowed in the store.

One of her sons told North Idaho Exposed that the couple approached them and immediately began harassing the boys.

"We hope your grandparents die of COVID," the couple allegedly said.

When they came back, one of the boys turned on his cell phone and recorded the encounter.

"I was angry like any mom would be," Mrs. Dickenson said. “The momma bear came out in me and I'm like, 'Oh no she didn't.'"

The country has gone slap crazy, folks.

Just the other day a woman in Manhattan Beach, California, threw a cup of hot coffee at a man because he was noshing a burrito unmasked.

“It’s hard to eat a burrito with a mask on,” the man tried to explain before his buddy was pelted by piping hot java.

It appears that a good-many folks have come down with a raging case of China Virus Derangement Syndrome and I’m afraid there is no known cure.

“Hundred bucks says these two are Washington state transplants.”

There’s no difference between eastern WA people and north Idahoans. And I was in both Post Falls and Spokane Saturday.

The grocery stores in my area took the dividers away to remind only one person at a time. And they took the baskets away too.

“Personally, I’d prefer to cross paths with them and be in and out of their viral plume within seconds, instead of almost a half an hour.”

Good point.

Wimin and min are equally Covid deranged. This insanity crosses gender lines.

Something similar happened to the wife and I last week.

I got mild COPD, so wearing anything over my nose and face makes it hard on me. But I can still fight if I have to.

Got into..yes the Walmart, and one SOB comes up to me and tells me I need a mask on right NOW. I told him to mind his own GD business or he would not need his mask since his nose would be flat and his teeth would be gone. I stood there and stared at him for a while and he turned away and left.

There were people all over that store without masks on.

BTW, in AZ if you get into a tussle you had better not have a fire arm on you or its a felony. Its been explained to me that only if someone pulls a weapon on you that you can respond in kind.

Amazon. For the purposes intended it does an acceptable job.

https://www.amazon.com/CammPro-Portable-Waterproof-Body-Worn-Enforcement/dp/B07MVMYRZK/ref=sr_1_5?crid=1F52QHEYQ9YMB&dchild=1&keywords=miufly+1296p+hd+waterproof+police+body+camera&qid=1596489535&sprefix=miufly%2Caps%2C404&sr=8-5

It keeps the Karens and Chads at bay. I wear it on my lapel underneath the Keffiyah I wear on my head. It goes on when I detect a potentially hostile situation

My sister bought a box of clear shields from Amazon. They catch under your chin and go up to just past the nostrils. I wore one to Walmart today and a lady asked where I got it.

She’s a school teacher and today was the first day back. She said that with regular masks on the kids can’t see teachers smiling, etc., and interaction is terrible compared to past years. She wants to order several for teachers

The cops use an Axxon brand. Its very rugged but very expensive in the $500-600 range if I remember correctly.

Yeah you can buy those but for this purpose they are overkill. Come equipped with night vision, can withstand being run over, etc.

Who said Eastern Wa? You get anywhere from Seattle or the college towns and it’s probably like Idaho. I’m an hour away from Seattle and Trump flags aren’t exactly rare.

Still, you don’t get more Red than Idaho, nor more Blue than Washington state.

I decided to do this after a family member was accosted by a Chad in a supermarket who aggressively confronted his wife when her mask slipped below her nose.

Opaque means “nontransparent”. Diaphanous is a fancy synonym for transparent or clear.

I also like to walk the wrong way down all the aisles.

I make a point of doing so.
