By a 5-0 vote Tuesday, the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisor adopted a resolution “affirming that racism [is] a public health crisis.'

the Board of Supervisors on Tuesday declared it was the first California county to actively recognize another public health crisis: racism.

“This is historic for San Bernardino County in taking the first step,” said Board Chairman Curt Hagman. “We’re probably the only county we have in California, so far, doing this, and this is the beginning of what we’re doing. This is not the end result.

There are also plans for more collaboration between the county’s law enforcement and justice agencies to boost public confidence, along with the creation of an “Equity Element Group” to identify and research public concerns related to law enforcement.The group is expected to include county experts in such fields as education and health along with members of the community.

He added, in regards to the Equity Element Group, “It is vitally important that we’re at the table lifting our voices and speaking for ourselves and claiming for ourselves.”

San Bernardino’ new motto - , great place to live if your white, everyone else get your ass to Pomona and stay there. But we are are not racist, see.

Huh?

What a joke!! Shows bad parenting I guess.

Liberal obsession with race is pathological.

If everything is racist, then nothing is racist.

There is not an epidemic of racism in California. You are a bunch of crack pots . Most Californians are related to multiple cultures.

You can get an ointment for that

Well if racism is declared a crisis, like homelessness was declared a crisis, or like pollution was declared a public health crisis; then we are all gonna make lots of progress with that declaration. What exactly is this gonna do to stop racism? It's been a public health crisis.

San Bernadino county should then be quarantined. No one gets in or out...

L A County, Orange, and Ventura too!!!!!

More people are killed by illegal immigrants in San Bernardino County than killed by racism.

Have you ever been to San Bernadino County? It’s white as fuck! It’s basically the Mormon section of Southern California.

It's about time.

Then we have to hospitalize Trump as soon as possible! TrumpResignNow
