Facial Mask Should Be Banned For Some Types Of People

[Treetop78759]

In Texas there are them type people who wear hoodies when it's hot. Them same type people also wear saggy pants with their underwear hanging out.

I'm sure they stink from the heat but what I'm absolutely certain of is that they look stupid AF.

When I see them type people with a hoodie and saggy pants it's natural to think they're criminals so everyone should be cautious.

I'm definitely not a racist but when you add a mask that covers their face to the equation being cautious turns to fear. I'm actually convinced that I'm about to be assaulted, robbed, carjacked or killed.

I understand the importance of the facial mask but not for everyone. I don't think it's fair for those who wear hoodies and baggy pants to also wear mask during the pandemic. It causes problems for the rest of society.

Is anyone else dealing with the same issue?

Dont get caught with your pants down!

Cheers and be safe.

I will agree with you up to this point.

it's natural to think they're criminals....

Perhaps that's a natural thought for you.

I'm actually convinced that I'm about to be assaulted, robbed, carjacked or killed.

Have you been assaulted, robbed or carjacked? Seems the fact your convinced is unfounded.

I've worked in the environment where those type of people tend to be for the last 11yrs and have yet to be assaulted, robbed or carjacked. Even is some of the worst places to included Chicago, North St.Louis City, E St. Louis, Memphis and Tulsa. Never had any issues.

Being concerned and cautious is to be expected but perhaps you're overly paranoid.

You left out the best part of his post: "I'm definitely not a racist but..."

I didn't leave it out, I just didn't think it was worth mentioning. And....I knew someone would get to it.

Yeah, some people are afraid to confront the elephant in the room.

When something is blatantly obvious, sometimes we forget to mention it.

"Them type" of people should be exempt from wearing PPE on their face because you are more scared to have your personal belongings ripped off by someone wearing clothing you consider representative of a criminal?

If you have seen a lot of this going on.........."them type" seem to be acting responsibly, not criminally. If they were standing in line behind you at the store and you were sick, they have every right to protect themselves. Conversely, they are actually taking steps to protect you and others around them in the event they are sick.

Having your car stolen would be the least of your worries.

In answer to your question, yes. End score, me 3, them 0. Situational awareness is key and paranoia can be useful in certain situations.

Hoodies in Texas. What the hell for?

[Treetop78759]

You guys are missing the point. I'm definitely not a racist so let me give you a few examples.

It's very common for one of them type hookers to request a security deposit. After doing so it's a guarantee that you have been ripped off.

If you leave your keys in the car around one it's guaranteed that your vehicle is going to be stolen.

If you walk down the street at night and one of them sees you, consider yourself assaulted, robbed or killed.

Many of them types suffer from underlying medical conditions like obesity, diabetes, sickle cell, heart disease and baldness.

If you have ever been in the service business where your income is dependent on tips there are some types of people who you dread seeing in your section because they dont tip. EVER.

With all that said, all of the above doesn't mean they are bad people. It's all genetics. Some people are genetically programmed to behave a certain way or suffer certain medical conditions.

I will accept the risk of them not wearing a face mask. A face mask makes them feel more confident that they won't get caught if they can't be identified.

Sorry for the confusion in my original post. I was shaken up at the time because I just left the grocery store.

Let me make something crystal clear. I love everyone so please don't judge me for having difficulty communicating my point.

Dont get caught with your pants down!

Cheers and be safe.

Lol. You would worry about some shit like that.

You people create the 'monsters' you fear. You're afraid of poor people, particularly those of other demographics, but you do everything in your [white] power to keep them poor. Harassment and repeated run-ins with the law, in jail outright, lousy job market, poor funding for schools, gentrification, on and on.

You get no sympathy from me. I hope they whoop your ass one day.

Treetop78759 is a very frightened, racist, childlike, soul. I suspect he leads a sad, lonely life. I pity him.

I can tell most of you haven't spent a lot of time in large urban areas like Detroit or Chicago.

Nah, bitch. You are PROFILING/STEREOTYPING/CLOSE-MINDED/BIGOTED

[friendly fred]

I wondered when the subject of identity obfuscation in furtherance of criminal activity would come up in the national discussion.

I haven't actually heard of anyone taking advantage of the situation yet.
