CNN)It may soon be illegal to make discriminatory, racially biased 911 calls in San Francisco.So basically it's any woman you don't like, for whatever reason.
The "CAREN Act" (Caution Against Racially Exploitative Non-Emergencies) was introduced on Tuesday at a San Francisco Board of Supervisors meeting by Supervisor Shamann Walton.
The ordinance's name is a twist on "Karen," the name social media gives people making racially biased 911 calls.
And it's not just "Karen." There are also names like "Becky," which has also come to symbolize a stereotype of whiteness. And "Susan." And "Chad."
The ordinance is similar to the statewide AB 1550 bill introduced by California Assemblyman Rob Bonta, making it unlawful and accountable for a caller to "fabricate false racially biased emergency reports.".
"Using 911 as a tool for your prejudice towards marginalized communities is unjust and wrong!" Bonta tweeted.
No its a woman who acts in a particular way. I think the male version is Darren.
