The majority of blacks are hesitant about getting the vaccine, but you wouldn't create a thread saying "stupid anti-science blacks refuse to take vaccine". Racism is not cool, Brian. You're better than this.
I got banned from a Subway for asking a WHITE manager to cover her nose, and I asked her politely in a calm voice, because I didn't want her breathing on my food. I didn't throw a fit when she refused, I simply walked out and complained on line. I haven't been back to that location since.
The point is this lady isn't a child, "Other people were not wearing their masks" is not an argument. It doesn't matter how unfair the lady thought she was being treated. The adult thing to do, isn't to worry about what others are doing, but either wear the mask, or leave. She escalated it and that is why the police were called. And she called the police too and gave her name to 911, so she is not intitled to privacy at that point because she made her info public to the dispacher.
And stop calling me a racist. How that white lady acted is a bigger symptom in our society of white anxiety and fear of a changing demographic. In another 30 or 40 years, whites will no longer be a majority in America.
And yes it is true that there are many African Americans whom are hesitent to take the vaccine, but that doesn't absove this lady from acting like a childish self entitled brat. There are also tons of white evangelicals whom refuse to wear masks or take the vaccine.
There are tons of African American pro mask advocates trying to change attitudes too.
