Holy excuses! In this country if all else fails you can always blame blacks. Who would you blame for your troubles if blacks weren’t around white America? Answer that one Nancy Drew.

Trying to pass off his work on Black Americans - tragic

When it all else fails...'the Blacks did it'...there are more White Republican who are telling us all, they will not get vaccinated!!

wow they really want us dead ..

One shit elected official after another in that damn state.

Funny. Whenever I see crazy anti-vaxers protesting and unvaccinated people in the hospital they are usually white.

This guy and his Covid-19 infected boss would never take responsibility. Always blame someone else. As a percentage of population there are more white Caucasians who remain unvaccinated by choice than African Americans or other people of color.

Wow, you extended as far as I could extend, kiddingly you didn't blame the poor prehistoric dinosaurs for the little Chinese flu contagion

IDIOT

'Only to deflect attention from his willfully Corrupt GOP & Der Fascist 3rd Reich R Wing media

That's one way to keep all those Trumper votes in your corner,

RacismDog

Here’s the problem, they seem to want to blame everyone migrants and now brown and black folk. But I thing the separation in vaccinations in POC to their white counterparts is smaller than the discrepancy than vaccinations based on political affiliation

When all else fail blame black people. Blacks are the scapegoats for every ill in America.

Yep, it’s all them. Dream on.

I'm thankful I don't live in Texas.

Racist much?

They aren't the only group with low vaccine totals. The Republicans are a larger group.

How horribly racist of you.

I thought it was all the immigrants? Make up your minds.

more and more despicable by the day
