    This stuff sounds silly now, but the way the left has been going crazy, embracing the cancel culture, and turning gender into a far flung leftist brain aneurysm, who knows, if Biden becomes president, what kooky stuff might become law.

    Dozens of City Governments Declare Racism a Public Health Crisis Dozens of City Governments Declare Racism a Public Health Crisis

    More than 50 city declarations put racism’s health impacts on par with disease and addiction. Health organizations and school districts are adopting them too.

    Among the causes for the declaration, as stated in the resolution: “A failure by any of our citizens to acknowledge the prevalence of racism in our community and to join in the fight to eradicate its effects on the majority of our residents is an unwelcomed option.”


    "Unwelcomed?" So if this crazy stuff was turned into law, would these people want to make it illegal to not adopt their views? Sort of like the "silence, is violence." meme.

    The left cannot tolerate any views that are not their own and they have no problem "removing" people who disagree with them from society.

    They're just pushing those in the middle more to the Right...and even those that are liberals are leaving them.

    Well golly...how do they plan on implementing whatever new laws come from these declarations anyway? Drugs are a public crisis, still have drugs. Poverty, still have poverty. Littering, still have littering. It's nice to make a statement, but how will you back it up?

    I can hear the creak of the paddy-wagon door opening as leftist goons herd people inside for daring to be different than their neighbors. Today's test-run edition is called a homeowners' association, usually run by people most of us would call a Karen. Conform, or die!

    ..and replacing those police with SJW types and therapists? Here's a question for the left, will your SJW Force actually enforce the law? How will they be any different in dealing with a rapists, thieves and drug dealers, when they shoot assault your SJWs, or flee the scene and endanger the public?

    It is going to end up being a mix of protection rackets and mercenary contractors.
    The rich will hire mercenaries, and the poor will be stuck paying their protection racket dues.

    I hereby declare the highly contagious leftist stupidity disease raging among democratic city leaders an extreme public health crisis, kind of like a rabid zombie apocalypse. WHY aren't these people being put under lock and key quarantine?

    We know the people with the money do to so, will hire their own security, and add gates, bars on the windows, etc,,, . Even the simple action of buying a firearm, a holster, amuunition, training, licensing, etc.. takes more money then some poor families can afford.

    Look at the far left, they clearly have shown that leftist political bigotry and intolerance is burning down entire city blocks. It's not a bunch of racist white people.

    And let's be real, what these woke state governors are saying, is white people are racists and it's a crisis. Even though statistics and many studies and polls show that very few whites are racist.

    Bulls**t. The dems were running their presidential campaign shaming the white men running.

    Biden's own senior adviser said "We don't need white men leading the Democratic Party."

    In a country where we have a rising class of prominent women and people of color increasingly ascending the ranks of Democratic politics, if you’re running for president as a white dude, you need to be exceptional. There needs to be a reason for why it should be you, and you need to lay out a clear reason for why our 46th president should also be a white dude,” says Karthik Ganapathy, a progressive strategist who worked on Sen. Bernie Sanders’ 2016 campaign.

    An entire article, telling white men not to run for president To the White Men Running to Be the Democratic Presidential Candidate: Can You Not? Why? Because of politics? No, just because they are white.

    When Biden is banning white people, especially men, from his choice of VPs is more evidence how race and sex drive the left, and the democrats.

    Oh sure the dems and the left are not racists, and yet they daily call whites systemically racist. you're like a skunk claiming he doesn't like bad smells. You think your obvious stink, doesn't stink.

    Like BLM and Affirmative Action? When do you plan to end that abhorrent racism?

    There still is no evidence any 'racism' ever existed in this or any other case. Name one person that racist organization BLM has supported that was actually proven to have been innocent or the victim or racism? I cannot think of one. As to the decades of underachievement in some communities, it does not justify in any way racist legislature like Affirmative Action...

    Conveniently any idea that doesn't conform to your ideology is automatically racist. Time, chess, milk, doesn't matter, its ALL racist.

    But you tolerate hate in spades. In fact, the left is the prime source of hate in this country. And, of course, the left tolerates its own racism and long as those racists vote the right way.
