Dan Maples needs psychological evaluation. He looks dangerous to employees and shoppers. I hope they called the police for safety’s sake. I can’t imagine doing any business with Dan Maples, the company that employs him or anyone that appears this unstable.

I can bet anything that those poor women weren’t accompanied by a male. All those silly , racists, immature muscles tend to come out when there’s no threat to the coward screaming like a 2 year old.

he had a weapon and was yelling at an old lady like she was gonna do something to him. honestly I’d fire him too

Idiot

Now he’s unemployed and he won’t get that $600 a week extra. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Maples is a complete moron. Wear a mask 😷 not for u but the others out there. I lost my mother-in-law to COVID-19 because no one had a mask. Just wear ur fricking mask 😷 People Quit being selfish. Last I checked ur mask won’t kill u but could protect U 😷😷😷😷😷😷

But did he lose his membership privileges?

Fuck him. He should do jail time.

People overreacting over nonsense...wear the damn mask!

Wrong response by him but WTF ? The lady that started it needs to mind her damn business...you do t like him not wearing a mask? Stay away from him 🤷🏻‍♂️. People need to calm down all the way around this mess.

People may wear masks to get into Costco, but many take them off or put it under their nose/chin after entry. And staff does nothing about it. I was very disappointed when I went a couple of weeks ago.

Serious question here, the video doesn’t give a much context. Are masks mandatory to shop at this Florida Costco location?

Good.

Guy is a tool

I haven’t been this excited to watch something since theleaguefxx every night I get all comfy in my bed & I watch the video of the daily jerk off who flipped out over a mask,covid, trump, used the N word & got beat down.United States season 243 episode mar-Jun have been wild!!

Tyson can't be everywhere!

People at Costco wild.

He lost his job for threatening a woman with a foreign accent. MAGA bout to make him a gofundme and get him rich for life now

morgfair

costco continues to allow people like this into their stores without masks. They know people like this are lying about medical conditions and won't change their policy to require everyone to wear masks to protect their customers. RiskYourHealthAtCostco
