(CNN)The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is now recommending that all Americans wear homemade face coverings in public to help stem the spread of coronavirus.
But Trevor Logan, an economics professor at Ohio State University, will not be following this guidance. "We have a lot of examples of the presumed criminality of black men in general," Logan, who is black, told CNN. "And then we have the advice to go out in public in something that ... can certainly be read as being criminal or nefarious, particularly when applied to black men."

Funny, too, because many of our domestic enemies want Trump to wear a mask, SO THEY CAN PORTRAY HIM AS A BANDIT.

How come you can say “people of color” but not “colored people”?

The trend has been in ‘hoodies’. Maybe the hoodie generation could just wear the hoods backwards. /S

I’d think if they’d just leave off the nylon stocking thingy, no one would freak.

You mean like being referred to as “super predators?”

I have seen lots of black people wearing filter masks and none of them seemed threatened or apprehensive about it. I guess they didn’t get the memo yet.

They need to do what Dr Sheila Lee is doing and wear their new masks like she does.
Congressional Idiot, Low IQ, Rep. Dr. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX), shows how not to wear a surgical mask!
Dr. Sheila says, When you put your nose outside the mask, it makes sneezing much easier to share your germs and virus with Trumps Deploreables!

I thought he would object to the masks because most the masks are WHITE.
Maybe a transparent or translucent (clear or foggy) mask can be developed.

Did you really think we want those laws observed?" said Dr. Ferris. "We want them to be broken. You'd better get it straight that it's not a bunch of boy scouts you're up against... We're after power and we mean it... There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced or objectively interpreted and you create a nation of law-breakers and then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the system, Mr. Reardon, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with. - Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged
