(11,744 posts)"I woke up in a free country". Hey Kev, did you wear a seat belt driving to Costco? Did you drive in the correct side of the road? Did you stop at traffic lights? Did you pay the car note? Do you have car insurance?
All of those things are part of living in a "free country". Private businesses and the government have the authority to require you to do certain things to use public and private lands and services.
Just because you have an immature understanding of what "freedom" is, doesn't mean you get to impose your stupidity on others.

Should I modify my post? I am new here and not sure of the proper etiquette...

With mostly like minded folks, it's going to happen.

(5,645 posts)No, I am from Cuyahoga County in Ohio...my DU name is a mashup of my birthplace, places I've been and my favorite duck (Cayuga Duck, an all black duck).
I was born and raised (for a time) on the Cuyahoga River near Cuyahoga Falls, which is why I mashed it up with my favorite duck.

(7,529 posts)You believe whatever your asshole leader and RW propaganda tells you and think you have "rights" that you really don't have. On second thought that is an insult to sheep. They are smarter than you and your fellow covidiots.

But one good sign is that she was willing to wear a mask despite his disdain of them.

(82,849 posts)Usually my first rule of videos is, if you're in a public place in some kind of disagreement or altercation, and you notice someone is videoing the whole thing, check yourself. You might be on the brink of becoming a viral sensation.
But now, people are self-owning, taking and posting videos of their own nitwittery. It's only after everyone else gives them the beatdown on line that they finally figure it out. But I like the Randy Marsh "free country" line; really marks him.

Thank you Costco.
Plus they pay their people decent wages.

(4,292 posts)... but from your comment on video its clear that youre definitely a fucking snowflake.
Now, go haul your baggy ass over to WalMart, or Sams Club. Or anywhere the-fuck-elsewhere from this store, you skid-mark on the nations underwear.
Begone!
Going out on a limb here, does the term fucking sheep have a special meaning to you? Just asking for information.

Lady in front of me was asked if she had a mask. She said, I do in my car.
COSTCO worker handed her one and said, Please bring yours in next time, cause if we dont have one to give you, you wont be able to come in.
