'Eaten alive': Hawaii bars reportedly receive backlash when asking for vaccination proof

https://www.sfgate.com/hawaii/article/hawaii-restaurants-bars-vaccine-rules-covid-16327053.php?IPID=SFGate-HP-CP-Spotlight

Bars and restaurants in Oahu were recently told they can lose all social distancing restrictions, but there was a catch: Under the order, staff are required to ask customers to show proof of full vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test result within the prior 48 hours to allow entry.

Establishments that attempted this were met with a backlash from customers and "eaten alive on social media," reports Hawaii News Now.

Now, the Hawaii Restaurant Association can’t name a single eatery still participating in the program.

until everyone is sick or dying from COVID. I guess they believe herd immunity is the only way to conquer COVID, they're afraid Bill Gates is using tracking chips to keep track of them, they're afraid of being "magnetized" by the vaccine, they're afraid the vaccine is going to make them sterile, they're afraid the vaccine is going to make them have triplets. ......THEY'RE AFRAID OF EVERYTHING!

Bunch of snowflakes!

Between the maskholes on the plane and anti-vaxxers in the restaurants, paradise has been lost.

Oh my God I don’t even know how to describe it they are just enormous assholes.

We ask them to put on masks in our indoor businesses and they go on the absolute attack. We ask them to pull their mask over their noses when it’s clearly posted that that is required for entry and they act like we’re stealing their first born.

Tell them they might want to step back from that rocky cliff where the big waves they don’t see this second rise up and suck people off them to the deep blue, they spit on us and scream at us. Then this chick harassed a monk seal, endangered species. They are just behaving like monsters.

I don’t even know what trip these people are on? They are horrible
You just wouldn’t believe it. . I wouldn’t believe it if I wasn’t hearing it with my own ears and seeing it with my own eyes.

Not all of these folks are visitors but all of them are from the continent. It’s really hurting the way people feel about America. And Americans. And being Americans.

The nice folks are the majority and I am so thankful for their consideration and courtesy. Those folks are a pleasure to have with us.
