These thugs are animals. My heart goes out to the family of the security guard.

I'd actually call them domestic terrorists.

This is terrible, hope they ID the criminals and serve justice. It won't be enough but.....

(I don't see anything elsewhere on the Spirit airline brawl that had to land in Iowa , then they didn't arrest anyone!)

They are domestic idiot's. They should get life. But, our court system will reduce their charges IMO.

Ok they are Domestic Terrorists. They still needs to keep life in prison.

My prayers goes out to the family. A senseless killing.

Masks have become quite socially contentious. This is a terrible outcome. Very sad.

TERRIBLE TERRIBLE

A politically motivated murderer is still a murderer.

From a Washington Post article (the article itself is probably behind a firewall)...

The argument began when the security guard, Calvin Munerlyn, 43, told Sharmel Lashe Teague, 45, that customers needed to wear face masks in the store, Genesee County Prosecutor David Leyton said at a Monday press conference. She yelled at him, spit on him and drove off, Leyton said. About 20 minutes later, her car returned to the store and her husband and son, Larry Edward Teague, 44, and Ramonyea Travon Bishop, 23, stepped out and confronted Munerlyn, according to investigators who spoke to witnesses in the store and reviewed surveillance video. Bishop pulled out a gun and shot him, Leyton said.​

The wife has been arrested, but the father and son are on the lam.

My comment would not be appropriate reading.

Bummer, just what flint doesn't need. Iam truly sorry for this Guard and his family. Flint is a dangerous city in certain places, so is Detroit we have to remain vigilant and keep our heads on a swivel no matter where we are.

Sounds like violence is just that family’s way of life. Truly sad.

There are simply no words for this.

I don't see anything that ties this to being "politically" motivated. I see this as murderers were simply looking for an excuse to get their next victim.

Are masks a political symbol? That is new to me.

Things like this happening are one reason Patti and I always carry.

If I truly said how I felt about these 4 animals and what should be done to them (something to do with Mad Dogs) my Posting would be deleted and it would probably upset a few people.

Tragic is the only word that comes to mind. I think I read recently that one state lifted its mask requirement because it placed workers in a hostile environment. Should never come down to this....over a simple face mask.

Disgusting!! This is humanity at it's worst!

It’s going to get worse

Yes it is stupid, but you can’t fix stupid!

Yes it was in Oklahoma.

I am speechless......horrified. A soul taken over a mask

Are masks a political symbol? That is new to me.

Some citizens believe that the government has overstepped its constitutional authority by mandating that its citizens don masks. They are rebelling, oftentimes violently, against what they believe is a campaign to strip them of their civil liberties.

As people resume going out in public in the middle of a pandemic, to wear or not to wear a face mask has become a personal statement and sometimes a political one.

The perpetrators should receive exactly the same as they dished out.

In Placer County, California, where I live right now, masks are recommended but not mandatory. When I go out, I’d say about half the people wear them. We wear a mask to be respectful of others. Personally, my mind does not have any logic and I am not sure if a mask works or not. So I wear it because I have been told it is the best practice. Plus my DH makes me wear a mask.
