Not followed a bullshit order to enforce a bullshit Karen call.He was on an official call concerning a mask violation.
On the way in, he encountered another person without a mask.
Should he have not said something to the customer?
Should the customer have followed an official order?
What should he have done once the armed customer refuses?

Absoultley...... He could have taken his own advise in that it was only a phuckin mask we're talkin about......SMFHNot been a raging power tripping douche canoe would be a good starting point.

Most likely, just outside the city limits. Lots of places "require" the mask but if it's not actually written as a law (ordinance), then you're not violating any law until you're asked to leave the premises and refuse to do so.All the little subs require the mask, so I’m not sure how far you’d have to drive to find mask less shopping.
IMO
He should have ignored the guy. It wasn’t part of his call and the cop said he felt the “ordinance” was stupid and ridiculous. I also think he should have just told the store owner “I was called do to a complaint that you aren’t wearing the mask which is a violation of city ordinance. Have a nice day.”
Pretty much sums it upIMO

Which one? The one to leave the store or the one to put on a mask he didn’t have?”
He probably should have left the store without comment instead of leaving the store while arguing. Might have saved him some time and frustration.
Which refusal? The guy argued about the legality of the ordinance then left the store. Cop followed him outside with a taser. Yeah, the guy was argumentative. But the cops actions seemed based on “how dare you question me” not “this guy is a threat to public safety”.
I think the fact that the guy walked in the end says a lot about the cops justification for his actions.
In the end the guy wasn’t making the best choices for getting out of there without conflict, but the cop was instigating and escalating as much or more so. And the cop found it necessary to not only give an inaccurate description of the situation to dispatch, but also to lie about how he had dealt with the situation to his supervisor.

I lived there for a few decades and that town has a history of stupid cop stuff. Likely due to it being fairly easy to get on there? Then moving to bigger / better places w experience.

I agree with it all.
Do you feel the fact he knew that the "karen" who called in the report, was sitting outside watching, could have had anything to do with him talking to the customer.
FIFYLook at all that white privilege the shopper and store owner have on full display.
We need equity so the rich, white politicians can take in more cash, and inappropriately sniff and fondle children. We need an equal playing field so rich politicians, who are definitely not getting what they deserve can get more.
