A rowdy group of anti-maskers marched through a Target in Florida and shouted at other shoppers to “Take off that mask,” viral video shows.
Footage on Twitter Tuesday showed the crowd parading around the aisles of the store — located in Ft. Lauderdale, according to HuffPost — and disregarding the store’s face mask requirement as one of them exclaims, “We’re not going to take it anymore!”
“Anti-maskers in Florida invade a Target,” wrote a user who shared the video, which has received more than 6.6 million views as of Wednesday afternoon.
Another video posted to YouTube showed the same group singing and dancing to the Twisted Sister song “We’re Not Going to Take It,” as other customers filmed the wild encounter on their phones.
“In celebration of Burn Your Mask Day we decided to spread some freedom dust over the shoppers and employees of Target!” user Chris Nelson wrote in the description of “Maskless Flash Mob at Target!”
In the clip, one of the participants implores other shoppers to “Take off that mask.”
“That’s the only way it’s going to work — if we all unite,” the woman said. “It’s all about choice.”
Another one of the members chimed in, “Can’t you breathe better without it on?”
Target said in a statement Wednesday that it “requires guests to wear masks whenever they’re shopping in our stores.”
“We’re aware of the group of guests who came into the store last night and we asked them to leave after they removed their masks and became disruptive and rude to other shoppers,” the company said.
