Grown Man Accused of Spitting on Kids for Wearing Masks
A middle-age Southern California man is accused of lying in wait outside local schools for children wearing masks—and then following them around so he can cough at them, spit on them, and taunt them for being “stupid” enough to don the face coverings.
The man, captured on video wearing a “Your mask makes you look stupid” T-shirt, has allegedly been continuing his anti-mask harassment campaign for a month in suburban La Crescenta, with a string of alleged incidents under his belt. Fed-up parents finally had enough this week and gathered at the Crescenta Valley Station to demand police take action.
“[The kids] were obviously getting scared. He was getting three to five inches away and coughing in their faces,” one parent who witnessed the alleged harassment, identified only as Ned, told CBS Los Angeles.
The Crescenta Valley Station, part of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, issued a statement Monday promising a “thorough investigation” into the man after one incident was captured on camera.

Anyone does this to my grandkids and they are facing one enormous civil lawsuit in addition to being charged with assault on a minor. I would see to that.

… by the newspapers, by other parents, and by the schools. “A blue van has been seen outside the following 3 schools, and a man offering candy, etc.”
Because, you know, kidnapping and sexual abuse are usually suspected. Spitting would be an additional offense.
What in the everloving whatever is wrong with all the adults in this picture that someone wants to babble about his free speech rights? Just remove all the culture wars crap and get back to laws protecting children — no new laws needed, just the old ones will do.
