Oregon county issues face mask order that exempts non-white people
Those racists clearly want all people of colour to die horribly of the coronavirus. |
[NYPOST] Lincoln County, Oregon, has exempted non-white people from a new order requiring that face coverings be worn in public — to prevent racial profiling.Health officials announced last week residents must wear face coverings in public settings where they may come within six feet of another individual who is not from the same household.
Didn't you just do racial profiling?
But people of color do not have to follow the new rule if they have "heightened concerns about racial profiling and harassment" over wearing the masks, officials said.
Why yes, yes, you did
"No person shall intimidate or harass people who do not comply," health officials said.
With mask requirements becoming more common, activists have raised concerns that the directives could put non-white people in danger.
"For many black people, deciding whether or not to wear a bandanna in public to protect themselves and others from contracting coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
is a lose-lose situation that can result in life-threatening consequences either way," ReNika Moore, director of the ACLU’s Racial Justice Program, told CNN.
