Have you ever personally witnessed an aggressive and defiant anti-masker? [View all]

I've seen my fair share of exposed noses and chin-masks... but I've never personally witnessed any sort of confrontation.

I've seen no confrontation between anti-maskers and other patrons. No tantrums between anti-maskers and store employees/management. No hostility between anti-maskers and security/police.

What's your experience/s? What have you personally witnessed? (Youtube doesn't count.)
