A video has gone viral on Twitter of an anti-masker getting punched in the face after shoving another customer.
The man claimed he was being "discriminated" against for being asked to leave the restaurant when he refused to wear a mask.
The video posted by @FarLeftKyle began with a restaurant worker standing in his way and telling him to leave.
The man yelled back at the employee:
"Go f*ck yourself!"
"You wanna see what happens when you discriminate?"
"We're going to f*ck your restaurant up!"
Another customer came up to the man and said:
"Just leave, sir."
They began getting into a physical altercation as the anti-masker pushed the other customer.
Multiple people began trying to defend the guy being pushed around.
Then suddenly another person punched the anti-masker in the face and he fell to the ground.
The man got up and walked out while saying:
"That's assault!"
Everyone appeared thankful the man finally left.

People on Twitter were also cheering for the customer who got the man to leave.
For some reason this really made my morning.

I don't condone violence, but there's some so satisfying about watching this.

This made me feel better than the bottle of wine I wanted to drink tonight. Crisis averted.

I've worked in restaurants before. People tend to treat the workers badly when they expect that there won't be a response.

We need more of this. He went looking for trouble, he got what he deserved.

What I most like about this is that just about everybody in the restaurant stood together against the bully. Remember in Little House when the girls stood together against the bully? This is what has to happen. No one employee should stand alone trying to enforce these policies.

They really think they are in the mainstream/majority and they are not.

Employees have had enough of anti-maskers and anti-vaxxers making their jobs a nightmare.
Thankfully, in this case, the customers had this employee's back.
