No this is different. This is a commercial place of business opened to the public. Your point of view is skewed and supporting mask bullshit we should have to be abiding by. The cop is an asshole, the end. So was the one a couple of weeks back in Texas as well that got nasty with a customer in a store for not wearing a mask. Even though the store clerk never said anything. Even though he got rude to the cop he still followed the cop's commands and left. Guess what happened?The cop still made the choice to detain him. He was an older guy too. So I guess cops in Texas must feel like big shots for picking on older people.
It’s private property. The bank owns it. The bank can set the rules for use of its private property, within the confines of the law, and as a customer, you either abide by those rules, or simply do not do business with that bank. “Mask up”, when required by the business, is as valid as “no shoes, no shirt, no service”. The government mask mandates are bullshit, but private property rights are a thing. You don't get to ignore one of the cornerstones of liberty (private property rights) because you don't like the outcome. If I own a business, and one of the conditions I impose on you during your patronage is to wear a mask for health and safety reasons, I generally have that right, and the right to enforce that policy by demanding that you comply or leave. If you refuse to comply and refuse to leave, as this woman did, I have the right to enlist the assistance of the police. At that point, you are trespassing. I don't have to like or agree with this mask bullshit to support private property rights...they're the cornerstone of liberty. This woman was fine right up until she refused to comply with the officer's requests that would have gotten her out of trouble for trespassing. Instead, she acted like an idiot, fucked around, found out, and made anti-maskers look like retards. That's not good.
The bank has private property rights as well. If some dude was squating in your home you sure wouldn't have a problem if a cop tossed him on his ass.
I'm sure this cop wasn't happy about it, but she refused lawful orders. I wish it could have been different.
