I noticed this in the news today....about Lincoln County, Oregon. It's on the coastline of the state, and fairly 'rural' by most standards.
The county commission met and issued a order.....ONLY white people are to wear masks in public. Non-whites don't have to wear the mask. The NY Post is reporting this, so I consider it somewhat reliable.
The thing about Lincoln County....I spent two days there on a 'beach' stop in the 1980s. It's a great area of the US.
So the one thing that stood out while I was there....it's just a lot of plain white people in the county.
I went to look at the official demographics data. Whites make up 90-percent of the population. Latinos? Second, with roughly five-percent. Blacks? .3-percent.
Trying to establish some type statement? Hard to say. The whole county maxes out at roughly 50,000 residents.
