New Yorkers face fines for refusing to mask up after coronavirus uptick

No. You should be doing this. Do you mean individuals in high crime areas has disproportionate reactions when told what to do? Thats shocking. It had nothing to do with race; it had to do with interactions with police. Like everything else; it’s a lie.

I live here. I stayed here the whole time. Saw with my own eyes Manhattan vs Bronx on “mask wearing”. Blame cops prejudice all you want; you’ll still be wrong. If DeBlasio cared; he’d keep the fine in place and evolve policy. He dropped it because the facts were that he couldn’t enforce the rule without appearing racist. Which is bullshit since the virus disproportionately effects minorities.

It’s all a show.
