—What a jerk. Why does he have to see her if she’s paying in cash?—
Yup. I’m afraid this woman definitely has a case. The only time facial covering is a problem is if you are trying to do something that requires some form of ID or you are pointing a gun and asking for the contents of the register. She was doing neither.
What are you smoking? How does a store clerk know “in advance” the intent of someone who enters the store with their face covered over? When a judge decides that private businesses have the obligation to serve anyone with a face covering you are going to see a lot more robberies because now the crooks will dress like Muslims to gain entry to a business without being suspected of intending foul play. And the cameras will not be able to see their faces. And you will not be permitted to regard them with suspicion until it is too late. Should the store clerk have to wait until the person with the face covering pulls a weapon out before stating that the person will not be served? What this all amounts to is a constant erosion in private property rights. More and more businesses and individuals are being prosecuted for exercising their Constitutional rights to make their own decisions as to who or what they choose to associate with on their own property. Now the government and the law enforcement community under the guise of preventing discrimination (yeah we are human beings and are the only species on the planet that has the ability to discriminate and there is a reason for that) can barge into your home or business and make you act a certain way.
What is it about publicly posted instructions you don't understand? If the police had NO PROBLEM with it, then it was perfectly within the cashier's right AND her job description to follow company policy and procedure...with which the law enforcement people obviously agreed or they would have done more than simply walk away.
No your honor, it's just that she was scaring all the other customers.
Private company, can do business with whomever they choose. There is no law that says a company has to do business with everyone. They just wont be in business long. That is why discrimination lawsuits are BS. Unless a company receives public monies, the gubbmint cannot force them to do business with anyone.
