WEBVTT

00:00:06.839 --> 00:00:09.529
if you've been out anywhere. Um, you know

00:00:09.529 --> 00:00:11.320
that when you walk in, you gotta have a

00:00:11.320 --> 00:00:13.419
mask on. But you also know that there are

00:00:13.419 --> 00:00:15.439
a lot of people just don't want to do it

00:00:15.449 --> 00:00:17.850
for a lot of different reasons. Well, uh,

00:00:17.859 --> 00:00:22.589
a Denny's employees sees this apparently very, very

00:00:22.589 --> 00:00:26.460
frequently, and to the point that she had enough.

00:00:26.469 --> 00:00:29.019
This is at a Denny's in Illinois. Uh,

00:00:29.030 --> 00:00:31.589
two guys walk in. They don't have masks

00:00:31.589 --> 00:00:36.210
on Andi. Hostess tries to, you know,

00:00:36.219 --> 00:00:38.299
implore them to put on a mask. They don't

00:00:38.299 --> 00:00:41.500
want to do it. This is where the tension

00:00:41.509 --> 00:00:44.799
bills you can see It is over. Lunch over.

00:00:44.810 --> 00:00:47.640
So visible in this video that you just when

00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:49.609
you know when you always say I've had it up

00:00:49.609 --> 00:00:51.600
to here. This woman has had it up to

00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:56.399
here and she walks out. Watch. You're required

00:00:56.399 --> 00:01:00.579
to have a mess. So religious belief it's under

00:01:00.579 --> 00:01:03.240
the Civil Rights Act of 1964. That way.

00:01:03.240 --> 00:01:08.799
Have an exemption. Religious exemption. E. What

00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:12.609
is wrong with the way I'm not working for any

00:01:12.609 --> 00:01:14.739
more? These guys won't put their mask on.

00:01:14.750 --> 00:01:17.930
I'm sick of feeling like this. Are you discriminating

00:01:17.939 --> 00:01:21.030
Yes, ma'am. Discriminating E. The Civil Rights

00:01:21.030 --> 00:01:23.510
Act says we have Wait Can claim a religious exemption

00:01:23.510 --> 00:01:25.230
for not wearing a mask. We're not sick.

00:01:25.239 --> 00:01:27.760
Not here. Okay. And then you have lost

00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:30.260
our business. Okay? We'll go somewhere else.

00:01:30.269 --> 00:01:33.760
E don't believe everything the media tells you. Okay,

00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:36.849
well, these guys are jerks, and it's

00:01:36.849 --> 00:01:39.030
like, What's your message? Is that religious freedom

00:01:39.030 --> 00:01:41.379
is a First Amendment is that don't believe what the

00:01:41.379 --> 00:01:43.719
media is telling you. They're jumbling all this stuff,

00:01:43.730 --> 00:01:45.310
but they wanted to fight, They pick a

00:01:45.310 --> 00:01:47.879
fight. And I feel so bad for this woman

00:01:47.879 --> 00:01:50.590
because you can Onley imagine at a Denny's when you

00:01:50.590 --> 00:01:53.239
know a lot of people come in late and drunk

00:01:53.250 --> 00:01:56.489
and unsafe and she trying to protect yourself and your

00:01:56.489 --> 00:01:58.950
family. Probably. The key thing is, ah,

00:01:58.950 --> 00:02:00.780
lot of people come in and I think people

00:02:00.780 --> 00:02:03.200
forget that the real reason that you have to wear

00:02:03.200 --> 00:02:05.170
a mask when you go into a business is that

00:02:05.170 --> 00:02:07.569
the people who are working there who are in most

00:02:07.569 --> 00:02:11.050
cases, essential workers who have to be there,

00:02:11.439 --> 00:02:15.009
it's to protect them because they're coming in contact with

00:02:15.009 --> 00:02:18.199
way more people than you will on your average day.

00:02:18.210 --> 00:02:21.060
Most people are either at home or if they

00:02:21.060 --> 00:02:22.930
go to work, but you are distance from people.

00:02:22.930 --> 00:02:25.840
But they are people who are essential. Workers

00:02:25.849 --> 00:02:28.580
are coming into contact with way more people than the

00:02:28.580 --> 00:02:31.449
average on a typical day and its to protect them.

00:02:31.740 --> 00:02:33.159
And I get it from her. Or she

00:02:33.159 --> 00:02:34.199
just said, You know what? Why am I

00:02:34.199 --> 00:02:36.939
fighting these people just walking out? But you also

00:02:36.939 --> 00:02:38.370
feel so bad for her as well, too,

00:02:38.370 --> 00:02:40.979
because it's like, Why would you come into someone's

00:02:40.979 --> 00:02:42.770
workplace during the time right now, where people really

00:02:42.770 --> 00:02:45.129
need their jobs? And she's taking the risk to

00:02:45.129 --> 00:02:46.590
come to work every day? Obviously, because she

00:02:46.590 --> 00:02:48.520
has to support whatever she has going on outside of

00:02:48.520 --> 00:02:50.259
work. And you taught her to the point where,

00:02:50.259 --> 00:02:52.740
like she doesn't even like she may not be

00:02:52.740 --> 00:02:55.689
able to financially provide for herself because she's not comfortable

00:02:55.689 --> 00:02:57.419
in her place of work. Just put the mask

00:02:57.419 --> 00:03:00.129
on or leaving. Her manager was trying so hard

00:03:00.129 --> 00:03:02.099
to kind of intervene and help her, but I

00:03:02.099 --> 00:03:04.419
think she's kind of like she resembles how a lot

00:03:04.419 --> 00:03:05.900
of us feel about 2020 right now. She was

00:03:05.900 --> 00:03:07.580
just over it. Like I gotta get out of

00:03:07.580 --> 00:03:09.460
here. I gotta go. Yeah. Coming.

00:03:09.460 --> 00:03:12.539
Bellamy calling from Memphis, Tennessee. And honestly,

00:03:12.539 --> 00:03:15.379
I just feel like at the end of the day,

00:03:15.389 --> 00:03:18.300
you walk into an establishment and they have pretty

00:03:18.300 --> 00:03:20.599
much house rules. Their house rules, Just like

00:03:20.599 --> 00:03:22.569
my house rules. Don't wear your shoes on the

00:03:22.569 --> 00:03:24.689
carpet. Yeah, I'm not gonna tell you that

00:03:24.689 --> 00:03:26.879
you're discriminating against somebody, but at the end of

00:03:26.879 --> 00:03:29.210
the day, it's just a simple rule. If

00:03:29.210 --> 00:03:30.629
you don't want to do it, there's other places

00:03:30.629 --> 00:03:33.560
to eat. I understand people feel hurt on the

00:03:33.560 --> 00:03:35.509
subject, but at the end of the day,

00:03:35.509 --> 00:03:37.469
it's the house rules. We can always find another

00:03:37.469 --> 00:03:39.469
Denny's to go to. They shouldn't go to any

00:03:39.469 --> 00:03:41.000
dangers, by the way, if they're not wearing

00:03:41.000 --> 00:03:42.979
masks, I mean, that's their call, you

00:03:42.979 --> 00:03:44.430
know, go eat at home. Yeah, that's

00:03:44.430 --> 00:03:46.229
what you say. That's not that's That's not a

00:03:46.229 --> 00:03:48.050
rule of just this. Denny's and Elena
