Shooting at Georgia Supermarket Over Wearing a Face Mask Leaves Cashier Dead
By Jerry Wilson | Jun 15, 2021 10:00 AM ET

A shooting at a Decatur, Georgia Big Bear supermarket, reportedly stemming from an argument regarding wearing a face mask, has left a store cashier dead and two wounded, one of the wounded being the alleged gunman.

A press release from the Georgia Bureau of Investigation states:

Quote
    Preliminary information indicates that at approximately 1:10 p.m., a male customer entered a supermarket at 2849 Candler Road in Decatur.  While checking out, the customer, identified as Victor Lee Tucker, Jr., 30, of Palmetto, GA, got into an argument with a cashier about his face mask.  Tucker left the store without making his purchase, but immediately returned inside.  Tucker walked directly back to the cashier, pulled out a handgun and shot her.  Tucker then began shooting at a DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office (DKSO) deputy who was attempting to intervene while working off-duty at the supermarket.  The deputy and Tucker exchanged gunfire, and both were wounded during the shootout.  Two responding DeKalb County Police Department (DKPD) officers arrested Tucker as he was attempting to crawl out the front door of the supermarket.

    The cashier was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital where she was pronounced dead.

    Tucker was also taken to Grady and is listed in stable condition.

    The DKSO deputy is being treated for his wounds at Atlanta Medical Center and is in stable condition.

    A second cashier was grazed by a bullet.  She was treated for her injury on scene.

    The DKPD will be taking arrest warrants for Tucker.

    The GBI will continue its independent investigation.  Once completed, it will be turned over to the DeKalb County District Attorney’s Office for review.

The non face diaper wearer isn't worth an employee confronting them and it SAF ain't worth dying over.

Down in my free state most employees are mask free and they have removed those stupid "All you can eat buffet" type sneeze shields!

The article is confusing. As written it means that the customer/shooter was wearing a mask, but got into an argument about it. Was the cashier mocking him for wearing it? :shrug:
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

If reporters knew how to write, they'd do it without working at it. 

That would leave them more time to think about WHAT they are saying, instead of HOW they are saying it. 

And if they had the time to think about WHAT they were saying, they'd start wondering WHY they were saying it.

And then they might want to start writing about true stories, and relevant stories, and then they'd have to be kicked out of the Rodent Club and not get any Pull-it-zer prizes and stuff.

So, they're all happy with their fourth grade writing skills and you're not a writer so how dare you judge THEM?

You're right, of course, that as written is reads like the shooter is wearing a face diaper and the clerk was telling him to take it off, which is very unlikely.

And it's too bad the deputy was such a poor shot.   The cost of the shooter's funeral is less than his trial and incarceration, and, unless the shooter was (b)lack, the incident would have been cleared as a good shoot.
The GOP is not the party leadership.  The GOP is the party MEMBERSHIP.   The members need to kick the leaders out if they leaders are going the wrong way.  No coddling allowed.
