Cut short during their shooting, Conejero gathered all her wits briefly before turning to her back and hit back to the American guy saying, “Wear a mask, Sir. You’re not 6 feet away from those children. “

But the guy went on telling them that they are pigs and disease carriers. According to Manotoc, the guy was telling them to clear the path when it actually got a lot of space on the other end if he wanted to avoid them in the first place. They were shooting at Bernal Heights Park in San Francisco, California and the American was seemingly in for a walk without a mask on.
