California police department removes 'racist and unscientific' term from official communications
Fox News
Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) police have removed the term "excited delirium" after recent progressive studies have deemed it "racist and unscientific."
According to BART Police Department's (BPD) press release, the move is their next step towards becoming "the most progressive transit law enforcement agency in the country."
"Removing this terminology from the BPD policy manual is a meaningful step toward racial equity in policing at BART," BART's independent police auditor Russell Bloom said in a statement. "I and my team look forward to monitoring the implementation of this policy revision."
