A mask mandate exemption for people of color meant to address racial profiling concerns has been removed after racist backlash, Oregon county officials said in a statement.

"The expressions of racism regarding the exception has created a ripple of fear throughout our communities of color. The very policy meant to protect them, is now making them a target for further discrimination and harassment," Lincoln County leaders said Wednesday.



quote:

But following the announcement, county leaders received unprecedented vitriol and "horrifically racist commentary" that turned the policy into one that makes people of color more of a target for harassment and discrimination, the statement said.

Our society is doing irreparable damage to black communities with this kind of coddling. That’s the point I suppose, keep them voting Democrat.

“Our policy was racist and we regret that non-racists rightly labeled it as racist. So we are calling them racists to obfuscate our racism.”
