The article doesn’t mention anything about the clerk. Was she married, did she have children. Let’s praise her courage for standing up to a bully .. and at extreme cost. I hope that grocery store is looking after grief counselling, funeral costs and some kind of death benefits.

Americas 'well regulated' militia strikes again

Every COVID-related death within the U.S. can now be attributed to Donald Trump's deliberate lies to the American public about the dangers of this deadly pandemic.

Every essential business need a Metal Detector for check in

Totally uncivilized behavior. Folks firm same cntry/ culture killing each other over what? A matter of differences n a temporary situation-- wearing a mask n her / someone's work space. What was missed in kindergarten? Seem a whole lot!

Unwavering stubbornness alongside the rapid depletion of any humility amongst humans will most certainly be the downfall of man

Where the good guys with masks ?

The world has lost its damn minds!

People with fragile egos carry guns.and that fragile ego makes them use it when they feel offended. And there are a lot of people like this....

If you choose to not wear a mask into a place that requires them and choose to carry a gun, you are a murderer looking for an excuse to kill people.

And it continues. So glad we have that second amendment so you can just shoot people when you disagree with them.

This is why we need gun control... This is also why people who spread lies and propaganda must be held accountable for their words and actions!

Masks will save lives they said

chenweihua This is one of the minor consequences of the politicization of Covid-19 in the West. The biggest ones are genocidal for the irresponsibility of human lives.

This is what ignorant people called Democracy,? The United States? What a joke... People shooting each other?

Just in case anyone was wondering.

What a lovely country.

This is like aggressive US foreign policy. No end to mass shootings. No end to foreign wars.

Sigh 🤦🏻‍♀️

Biden’s America. Sad.

Right wing animals claim another victim

Is this the good guy with the gun we keep hearing about? Hard to tell.

This is one of the things that scared me at work at the beginning of the pandemic while working as a cashier. I don't know how its going to be after the mask mandate is lifted tomorrow.

Earlier today, a dude here on Twitter claimed that there's no such thing as random violence for petty reasons. deeeeeep breath

Quick Trial, if found guilty, immediate death & in the ground. Aren’t we sick of this crap. The evil must go, no prison for evil.

This is so disgustingly horrifying that I don't even have words. What is the point? Are you really that peeved over wearing a mask that you are willing to kill people over it? Anti-maskers are not good human beings.

I am so surprised this happened said absolutely no one. WTF is wrong with people?! 🙆🏻‍♂️ Another day, another shooting. Our new normal?!

fbajak The perpetrator must never, ever, ever be aloud to go free ever again. This is pure evil.

Time for some eye for an eye justice.

Georgia still does Capital Punishment, right?

WTF

TrumpsAmerica RepublicansAreTheProblem

If there's a vaccine out there against this virus of anti-science, gun loving crazies, I'll take it right now! Or the ingredients of that vaccine are just takes a bit more loving and caring for each other!?

americans are crazy

Df. Sounds like they had a certified nigga moment.

There's news coming out of Clackamas, Oregon of a shooting at a vaccination center where a bald white man waving a trump flag who looked like he stepped out of a USAA commercial used 2 Uzi machine guns to kill 380 people waiting in line for vaccines.

Conservatism is a terrorist ideology.

My life isn’t worth a mask

More retail workers are killed than cops every year. Pay them. Also anyone who saw the dangers of politicizing mask knew this was the end point. This worker did not deserve this....I really hate it here.

IwriteOK WTF!! 😱

Which well-regulated militia was he a member of?

What cretin of an editer, approve an article, where the shooter of three, murderer of one is refer to as “the customer”!?

C'mon, America... do better!😢

Imagine being such a snowflake about a piece of cloth over your mouth that you are willing to commit murder. Masks aren’t mandated here but I still wear them anywhere the employees wear them just as a sign of respect. A courtesy for humanity.

What the hell? People are nuts.

He looks exactly how you’d expect someone to shoot another person over a mask would look like

This far into a fucking pandemic and people can’t muster enough decency to wear a mask for the common good. 500k+ dead and these fuckers make it. 😳

100 years from now, they’ll call this current incarnation of society “savage” and “primitive”.

Imagine being so out of your mind that you sentence yourself to prison forever because of a fakakta mask dispute.

Is America Great Again now?

What ever happened to just fighting with your hands?

We didn't stop the violence last year when it started, now is the norm.

cruel, diseased country from top to bottom

It’s not just hideously violent, it’s also stupid. The suspect clearly knew they’re gonna face decades of prison time (at least) - yet they did it.

where's his mugshot?

Maybe mask enforcement not worth it?

💔💔💔💔

We are one day closer to a giant meteor hitting us

Something is very wrong with these people who are willing to kill or die rather than wear a piece of cloth that helps prevent the spread of a virus.

One reason why people don't want to work for minimum wage, essential jobs

We are a failed nation. To so callously take a life like that is absolute barbaric behavior.

Somehow I don’t think he achieved greater freedom.

Trump and Republicans killed this store cashier by spreading conspiracies over masking and social distancing! Gosh what a waste

America moment

Proof masks don’t save lives.

Another “good guy” with guns.

Rabid humans not compatible with a functional society.

*o*

One focked up country

Thank the GOP and FoxNews for this murder

Que horror ! Por eso es mejor no discutir en los supermercados ni en otros lugares públicos

Another example of people killing people. Not the gun's fault.

OMG 😔

If only we didn't have a former president and entire political party that completely trashed wearing masks and emboldened dickheads to act like this. Oh, and if guns didn't outnumber Americans would help as well.

America. The land of the free and the insane.

If only the cashier had a gun 🤦‍♂️

Being surrounded by selfish morons with guns who don’t understand science, their rights, or ‘freedom’ is infuriating.
