Another Melbourne woman has threatened Bunnings Warehouse for "disgracefully" asking her to wear a mask when entering one of its stores.
The woman has posted numerous videos on Facebook where she alleged Bunnings "threatened me coming from a fear-based agenda". Face masks are currently mandatory for Melbourne residents or risk a NZ$215 fine, due to a massive spike in COVID-19 cases.
"It's interesting, isn't it, how so many people are so fearful," the woman says in the video as she walks around the store without a mask. "It's just so sad that people are so fearful of what they're told, what they're programmed.
"I'm a paying customer which is my right - I want to get these pots for my garden."
She claims she had a "medical certificate of exemption" to not wear a mask, but the staff didn't believe her.
As the woman continues shopping, an employee can be seen in the background calling the police but she carries on to the counter.
"For me to serve you, the condition of entry is to wear a mask," a staff member at the counter says, asking her to stop filming.
She stops filming but continues her tirade in a separate Facebook video.
"I understand if you're working at Bunnings, by law, they're telling you to mask or you'll lose your jobs," she says. "But all the people that are in there; it is a zombie, zombie, zombie nation.
"This is my human right - the masking is a directive, it is not a rule. It has not been passed through Parliament."
A video then emerged of her setting masks on fire but appears to have since been deleted.
"I do not consent. We, the Australian people, do not consent to forced mask-wearing," she says in the video, as reported by 7 News. "To the Australian Government, you can take your control and your fear-based evilness away."
This incident comes after another woman, Kerry Nash, threatened to sue Bunnings, saying they were "discriminating" against her for asking her to wear a mask, before launching a similar tirade against Australia Post at one of its Melbourne depots.
Videos of her anti-mask rants posted on social media, in which she abuses staff in both and tells them she doesn't need one, went viral and caused outrage among Australians, who have dubbed both the women 'Bunnings Karen'.
On Sunday, Victoria Premier Daniel Andrews slammed "selfish" people for not wearing masks. The state recorded 532 new COVID-19 cases on Monday - the highest number of new coronavirus cases it's recorded in a single day.
