COVIDiot Carried Out of Grocery Store by His Son Amid Mask Meltdown at Employees: WATCH

[left-of-center2012]

A COVIDiot was lifted and carried out of a Sprouts health food grocery store in Tucson, Arizona after having a meltdown about wearing a mask and trying to pick a fight with workers.

“These people won’t learn,” the man screamed. “You’re a bunch of idiots wearing masks, you know it’s not real. Look at you fools. You got a f**kin’ doily on your face, retard! It looks like you f**king got it off of your mom’s countertop.”

“You feel better now?” one of the man’s sons calmly asked his dad.

“You look like an idiot,” the man continued. “You’re a dork. Look at you, you giant f**king dork. Come outside, come outside and show me how tough you are! I’ll beat that f**king mask off your face. You’re a f**king retard. F**king pussies.”
“A bunch of pussies wearing masks!” the man continued screaming, as his son lifted him and carried him out of the store, releasing a clearly audible fart.

1. Lifts fat-ass dad; dad farts

This is comedy gold.

[shanti]

10. Probably

from the beer he's been drinking all day!

[sandensea]

12. Watching Faux News no doubt

That combo would give anyone enough gas to power the Hindenburg.

[jpak]

2. Pffffff

[BusyBeingBest]

3. Feel bad for the sons. Can you imagine

being raised by this psychotic dick?

[AnotherMother4Peace]

14. Perhaps they'll be doing a little rethinking & reevaluating. nt

[Leghorn21]

19. Same here, I wish them the best, that took some courage to haul dad out like that

They’re probably going to be severely punished when this thing is seen by 90% of Americans...

it ain’t nuthin but hard times, growing up with a father like that

Hang tough, boys

[BusyBeingBest]

29. They'll be wearing masks in public from now on, I'll bet.

For other reasons.

[Midnight Writer]

32. Yes, I can. This reminds me so much of my Dad. I dreaded going anywhere with him.

And if I had dared to touch him like this guy's boys he would have decked me, fast.

[BComplex]

4. What's really sad is that he probably has covid in his brain.

It causes weird behavioral changes in some people.

[ret5hd]

5. Sons act sane: "They got it from their mom."

[Demovictory9]

15. they saved him from going to jail

[sandensea]

16. Mom probably votes Democratic

Regrets marrying borderline-abusive, Faux News-watching slob.

A common tale.

[stopbush]

6. Entitled, elitist asshole.

[samnsara]

7. Literally LMAO during the part hes calling out 'p***y' and his feet are dangling....

...like an unruly child being hauled out of the store by a parent..and how many times have WE done that?

[AnotherMother4Peace]

8. Cultism can be a dangerous thing. This is called proselytizing for dear scared leader.

Bunker Boy's followers are definitely escalating their level to violence. They're not liking the polls, & they're listening to their dear leader's dog whistles.

[greenjar_01]

9. Philly/South Jersey sounds like

Vacationing in AZ, and getting up to this nonsense?

[NurseJackie]

11. Some of these things are so stupid that I often wonder if they're staged.

[stopdiggin]

23. +1. often have the same thought

there's an awful lot of "content" out there (and people willing to concoct it) -- that is considered "amusing" these days.

this one, on the other hand ...
couple of really embarrassed family members trying to prevent Dad from getting arrested (or beat up). sorry for you pain. lesson: try not to be around Dad.

[AnotherMother4Peace]

24. You'd think, but nah - they're really that stupid.

I think they are proselytizing, or preaching the word of Bunker Boy.

Before my dad passed, he started "preaching" the outrageous GOP conspiracy theories to anyone he'd meet: the priest greeting parishioners, passengers on the tour bus, etc. - it got very embarrassing, and most people were just polite and ignored him.

It looks like Bunker Boy is putting out the "call to action".

EDIT to add: My dad was not stupid, but something else: maybe deluded, maybe a "true believer" - it was hard to watch his "decline" into believing outrageous conspiracy theories. He was pretty brilliant at one time, and was pretty sharp up until he passed - but a "true believer" cult member.

13. Take him home and hide him in the attic

[stopdiggin]

17. Despite the amusement aspect

what a lot of these incidents (and certainly this one) point out is an irrational response. The emotional reaction is clearly out of proportion to the situation. Some of this behavior would seem to border on clinical? Lots of people encounter irritating situations and affront every day -- without going into complete 3 year old meltdown.

(or am I over analyzing?)

25. The irrational part is already a permanent feature for this man

His sons already knew how to deal with him once he escalated past a certain point. They didn’t show any surprise at his rage nor did they back him up. They clearly made an effort to calm him down and get him to leave with them. Then one went to the next level of physically carrying him out, while the other quietly followed.

[stopdiggin]

26. like I said. would appear to be bordering clinical behavior. (nt)

[lunatica]

28. I was agreeing with you.

[dawg day]

27. I'm wondering if we asked grocery store employees-- did you have these crazies last year?

They'd probably say, oh, yeah, there was the guy who poured the milk on the floor screaming that it was sour, and the other who was furious that he couldn't buy liquor because he didn't have his ID and he's clearly over 21, but this is the law....

I think Trump has encouraged them to let this out and do it about this one issue-- but there's been a high level of crazy for awhile. It's probably not "mental illness" in any diagnosable way, and they probably have jobs and get their bills paid and manage to live a fairly normal life. But maybe they've always been on edge and bullying people, and now they think they have a platform.

Getting Covid will probably calm them down some.

[druidity33]

34. No. We didn't. BUT....

there have always been the local vagrants who would shoot up and lock themselves in our bathroom. Since the pandemic we closed the bathrooms and that hasn't been a problem. We now get people who ARE NOT regular customers who come in aggressively SEEKING a confrontation about masks. This is a phenomenon that has made our jobs A LOT more difficult.

[BGBD]

18. he about got his ass whooped

there at the end when he knocked those boxes over. I've seen that walk before when the guy in boot walled around from behind it.

[lunatica]

20. Hahahahahaaa!

That’s hysterical!!

This’ll be the family joke forever! Even after grandpa dies!

[Raven]

21. What's he doing in a health food store in the first place?

[TheBlackAdder]

31. If you ever ate that Tillamook ice cream 🍨 they sell, you'd know why.

[ProfessorGAC]

22. That Guy He Challenged...

...would have annihilated him.
Tall, athletic & half his age.
Kid could make him miss for 15 seconds, he runs out of gas, kid beats him to a pulp.
He's lucky his kid carried him out.

[TheBlackAdder]

30. Dad, let's get out of here. I don't want to be in a viral video!

.

Oops! Too Late.

.

[renate]

33. One time a guy screamed at me in a grocery store because I was wearing a white sweater

No, he didn't, because that would be ridiculous.

Why do these people care so much about how OTHER PEOPLE decide to dress?
