thegatewaypundit--2020-06-26--After Public Backlash, Oregon County Reverses Its Mask Exemption Policy For Non-Whites

Amid a wave of public backlash , the rural county in Oregon that exempted “ people of color ” from Covid 19 mask requirements has now reversed its policy .
Situated along the Oregon coast , well clear of Portland ’ s lunacy , Lincoln County made national headlines for their insane and racist policy .

The region of 50,000 on a quiet part of the Oregon Coast became a target of anger after passing a directive that all residents wear masks indoors and outdoors — with a few exceptions , including for “ people of color worried about racial profiling and harassment due to wearing face coverings in public.

“ For the state ’ s face covering requirements , public health and stopping the spread of this disease is our @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a way to blame whitey , as the full statement from the Lincoln County commissioners reads : Statement of Lincoln County Board of Commissioners and County Management Team On June 17 , 2020 a public health face covering Directive was issued by Lincoln County Health and Human Services with the support of the Lincoln County Board of Commissioners as an additional tool in the fight to stop the spread of COVID-19 in Lincoln County .
The Directive broadly identified the use of face coverings in public indoor settings and outdoor locations where social @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was created after examination of policies and guidance from health experts and jurisdictions across Oregon and the nation which have adopted similar recommendations or orders .
In this Directive there were several exceptions identified recognizing that not everyone could or should wear a face covering : • Persons with health/medical conditions that preclude or are exacerbated by wearing a face covering .
• Children under the age of 12 .
Children over the age of 2 but under the age of 12 are encouraged to wear face coverings but not required to do @ @ @ @ @ @ @ prevents them from using the face covering as described in this Directive .
These persons must be reasonably accommodated to allow them access to goods and services .
• People of color who have heightened concerns about racial profiling and harassment due to wearing face coverings in public .
We included the last protection for those within our communities of color who historically , and often personally , found themselves the victims of harassment and violence .
After last month ’ s protests , the national attention given to issues of racism , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this last exception would be embraced and understood as a small effort to start addressing the realities some of our neighbors deal with on a daily basis .
We are shocked and appalled at the volume of horrifically racist commentary we have received regarding this policy exception .
The vitriol that county leadership , staff , and community partners , have been subjected to is unprecedented .
All this only a month after George Floyd ’ s death .
The expressions of racism regarding the exception has created a ripple of fear throughout @ @ @ @ @ @ @ policy meant to protect them , is now making them a target for further discrimination and harassment .
Let us be very clear .
The Directive and policy were meant to protect .
Threats and racist statements turned it into a policy that now harms .
While shocking , it did not surprise us to receive racist calls from elsewhere in the country…because that is where we tell ourselves the world ’ s problems are right ?
Well that is not completely true .
We were surprised by the number of derogatory calls @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coastal communities .
We would encourage you to think less about the possibility of your rights being violated and think instead of the heightened feelings of risk that people of color in your neighborhoods daily endure .
The County also received several calls from leadership from our communities of color asking us to revise the policy – it was not providing them protection , but instead making them possible targets for more hate .
To address those concerns , we are revising our Public Health Directive and face covering policies .
It saddens @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that .
We will not continue a Directive and policies that were intended to assist but instead are a potential source of harm for those we are sworn to protect .
Lincoln County will continue to recognize and fight racism .
We will start with changes under our control .
We are working on a plan for those changes and details will be provided in the days and weeks ahead .
Change starts at home –with each one of us .
We are still in the middle of a pandemic .
We are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and control over our lives .
While we would like to be done with this virus , it is not done with us .
Wear your face covering , be kind to each other .
End racism now .

However, now they’ll likely face a new round of criticism for subjecting people of color to the same “ordinances” that whitey has to follow.
The Statesman Journal reports:
Lincoln County was hit by a tsunami on Tuesday and Wednesday, but it wasn’t the one they expected. The region of 50,000 on a quiet part of the Oregon Coast became a target of anger after passing a directive that all residents wear masks indoors and outdoors — with a few exceptions, including for “people of color worried about racial profiling and harassment due to wearing face coverings in public.” The directive, passed on June 16, went viral after a New York Post story with the headline: “Oregon county issues face mask order that exempts non-white people.” By Wednesday, as the story spread and a small office in Newport was bombarded with thousands of angry emails and phone calls, the county revised the directive and eliminated the exception, saying that it “does more harm than good.” “We included the protections for those within our communities of color who historically, and often personally, found themselves the victims of harassment and violence,” the Lincoln County Board of Commissioners and County Management team said in a statement Wednesday evening. “We are shocked and appealed at the volume of horrifically racist commentary we have received regarding this policy exemption.” The exception, local officials said, was well-intentioned — a way for people worried about racial profiling to avoid that by having the option to not wear a mask, Lincoln County Commission spokesman Casey Miller. “I thought it was mindfully crafted,” he said. “The focus of the directive was really on the health aspect.” “Discrimination and racism faced by people of color wearing face coverings, particularly Black men, are issues of significant concern, and we recognize the reasoning for Lincoln County’s exemption,” said Charles Boyle, deputy communications director for Brown. “However, it is also the case that Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Pacific Islander, and other communities of color have been disproportionately impacted by COVID-19 and disparities in our health system,” Boyle said. “For the state’s face covering requirements, public health and stopping the spread of this disease is our top priority.”
Of course they find a way to blame whitey, as the full statement from the Lincoln County commissioners reads:

The move would follow another that was commissioned by Washington, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser, who created the “Black Lives Matter Plaza” and had painted a street “BLACK LIVES MATTER” right outside the White House grounds.
Trump ripped her, too, at the time.
“@MayorBowser is grossly incompetent, and in no way qualified to be running an important city like Washington, D.C.,” Trump said. “If the great men and women of the National Guard didn’t step forward, she would have looked no better than her counterpart Mayor in Minneapolis!”

The New York Police Department’s Sergeants Benevolent Association criticized de Blasio’s plan.
“Does he give any thought to his decisions. The street is a frozen zone for Secret Service. All this does is creates a greater security risk. Why not on 34th street by Madison Sqaure Garden, Macy’s Penn Station millions of people travel through. Why? Because he is playing politics,” the association wrote on Twitter.

Here is the size comparison of door rope in question.
According to the FBI, the garage door pull rope had been there since October of 2019.
“The FBI learned that garage 4, where the noose was found, was assigned to Bubba Wallace last week. The investigation also revealed evidence, including authentic video confirmed by NASCAR, that the noose found in garage number 4 was in that garage as early as October 2019,” the FBI said in a statement.
Race hustler Al Sharpton on Wednesday suggested Bubba Wallace was actually assigned to the garage stall because the garage door loop resembled a noose.
