KENTWOOD, Mich. A sign at the entrance of a metal-cutting shop in Kentwood, a suburb of Grand Rapids, asks customers to remove your mask or raise both hands high to avoid being mistaken as a robber.
The sign in front of Tubergen Cutting Tools Inc. reads In responce [sic] to Gretch, attention: This facility is protected by armed employees for your safety! Remove your mask or raise both hands high and keep um up! Dont be mistaken as a robber! Thank you, management. Open carry still welcome.
The sign is in response to Gov. Gretchen Whitmers executive order mandating businesses to turn away customers who dont wear facemasks, which went into effect on Monday, July 13. Health experts believe facemasks are an effective way at slowing the spread of COVID-19, the sickness caused by the coronavirus.
Andy Tubergen, owner of Tubergen Cutting Tools said the sign is meant as a joke, and customers are welcome to wear masks in the shop.
