A Mexican restaurant in Texas is requiring people to keep wearing masks; some are threatening to call ICE on the staff
HOUSTON, Texas As Texans look ahead to the mask mandate ending and businesses reopening fully on Wednesday, one Houston restaurant is dealing with hateful comments because it said it will require customers to keep wearing masks.
A co-owner of Arnaldo Richards’ Picos Restaurant told CNN that while the majority of customers have been supportive, a couple of social media posts have been “hurtful” to him and his family.
One of the posts on social media, which was provided to CNN and has since been deleted, had a person threatening to call immigration to check on the green cards of restaurant staffers. Another post simply said, “Y’all deserve ICE,” referring to US Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
