Dee Snider blasts unmasked protesters for using "We’re Not Gonna Take It"

 Protesters in Florida are sick of wearing masks, and they’re not gonna take it. But playing Twisted Sister’s most popular song while they do it? Well, Dee Snider is not gonna take it, either.

Snider, the outspoken frontman for the hair-metal icons that formed in Ho-Ho-Kus, took to Twitter on Wednesday to condemn the protesters that walked through a Target in Fort Lauderdale while blasting 1984 hit “We’re Not Gonna Take It” and not wearing masks.

“No...these selfish a******* do not have my permission or blessing to use my song for their moronic cause,” the 65-year-old from New York tweeted, along with video of the protesters who encouraged other customers to take off their masks. One woman quoted the song as they protested.

Target requires all customers to wear masks, and provides disposable masks for those who do not have their own. The repercussions went further than Twitter, though. Broward County fined the Target for not enforcing the mask law, and mailed protesters citations as well, according to The South Florida Sun Sentinel.

Danielle Schumann, a Target corporate spokesperson, told The South Florida Sun Sentinel that Target requires shoppers to wear masks inside stores and that the protesters were asked to leave “after they removed their masks and became disruptive and rude to other shoppers.”
