An employee at a Target store on Long Island, New York, says she was confronted by a customer who demanded she remove a Black Lives Matter mask because they found it offensive.
The customer said that her ancestors were in the Holocaust, which is"worse than slavery" and told Tana she needed"to educate" herself," Tana recalled.
The woman left the store. About half an hour later, after her shift ended, Tana said she went outside to meet her boyfriend who was waiting in his car. Tana said she spotted the woman trying to re-enter the store so she went back inside to alert her managers and security. The woman appeared to be filming herself and was saying she was going to go back inside the store to"record faces," Tana said.of the woman outside the store that Tana uploaded to her Instagram account.
The customer, who was carrying her mask in her hand, approaches Tana seemingly to capture her name tag on camera. She responds:"Oh, you're not taking anything? Well, this is going to corporate." She also says that she has the right to her opinion. The guard replies,"Yes, you do." The guard tells her that he did not want to argue with her about her opinion. She continues:"What about the Chinese? What about the Mexicans? What about every body else in the world." She also says that there are"a lot of Black people that are f------ disgusting" and accuses the guard of calling her a bigot, which he denies.
