    You must be extremely worried about the gigantic protests taking place across the country right now. No doubt those selfish evil protesters will spread the virus and kill thousands. Wouldn't you agree?

    He already knows that. He just doesn't care. He's gone way too far out on a limb to admit that he was wrong. He will defend his disastrous beliefs until the bitter end, no matter what the evidence says. To admit that he was wrong after all the damage the lockdowns have done to society would force the reckoning of his lifetime.

    You must be barely worried about the gigantic protests taking place across the country right now. No doubt the selfless patriotic protesters will have barely any impact on the virus and almost no one will die. Wouldn't you agree?

    What is your opinion on thousands of protesters brazenly violating the "social distancing" dogma you've been pushing for months? Are you absolutely livid? How many additional COVID deaths do you think these protests will cause? Probably thousands, right?

    That doesn't really address what I was saying.

    For months, liberals have been aggressively pushing "social distancing" idiocy on the country and shaming anyone who resisted.

    Yet those same liberals are now cheering a protest movement that is openly and massively defying "social distancing", to say nothing of their violent criminality.

    If thousands of conservatives around the country where marching in the streets, burning buildings, shooting and stabbing bystanders, police, etc., looting entire blocks, you and the other liberals would be on the floor rolling around in paroxysms of blind rage. But because these protests are mostly from your side of the political aisle, you give them the biggest pass in American history.

    How about that. Everyone else in America must stay in their homes and practice social distancing, but mobs of violent Democrats are allowed to do whatever the f*ck they want.

    No, I am definitely more livid at people who continue to downplay and dismiss the threat of this virus despite it killing 100,000+ Americans in two months.

    As for the protesters, I would strongly suggest that they do everything possible to remain as safe as possible while expressing their opinions.

    do you realize legal action was taken on churches and those that went to church just a week ago
    and yet not one of these so called protester's has had any legal action taken because of them clearly violation those same rules they used to take legal action on those churches and those that attended

    Your argument presumes that being shot with rubber bullets, tear gassed, and arrested by police does not qualify as "legal action"

    they didn't get shot with rubber bullets, tear gassed, and arrested because they peacefully protested they were shot with rubber bullets, tear gassed, and arrested because they rioted looted and committed arson

    And the groups that you allege faced legal action also violated laws and orders.

    yes because going to churches is equivalent to rioting looting and committing arson

    Going to church during a pandemic when ordered to stay home is criminal behavior.

    Not equivalent, just worthy of legal action as well.

    Executive fiat isn't an law, although it is viewed as a law it doesn't have the same respect or force as a law voted on and approved by a governing body.

    Just a few chapters into the book by Judy Mikovits, a most informative book, it seems the "scientists" and their "community" are just as mercenary as anybody who worked for Blackwater/Xe. For money, they will say and write whatever they are told.

    Clearly.

    Public Health Experts Say the Pandemic Is Exactly Why Protests Must Continue

    In an open letter published Sunday, they write that “protests against systemic racism, which fosters the disproportionate burden of COVID-19 on Black communities and also perpetuates police violence, must be supported.”

    The letter and the experts who signed it make a case for viewing the protests not primarily as something that could add to cases of coronavirus (though they might) but as a tool to promote public health in and of themselves. Protests address “the paramount public health problem of pervasive racism,” the letter notes.

    The Democrats have become deranged and out of control, they've legitimately used a novel coronavirus to create a political communist environment that favors them(the stimulus's into the dead economy) and then they use the unfortunate murder of George Floyd(though the full evidence that's come out now makes it far less of a slam dunk.) to forment civil unrest, violence and general terrorism against its OWN population.

    All this for a party that admits that its bankrupt. To me, it's more than financial bankruptcy, it's political and moral bankruptcy.

    I'm used to Democrats being deranged and out of control, but it's a real tragedy that they can co-op the scientific community to abandon actual facts and data just to support the cause de jure.

    Please calm down, AmericanNationalist. There is no hoax. There is no communist plot. The civil unrest arises because the alt right and Trump class support violence and terrorism against minorities and their allies in America.

    We see Mattis, Kelly, Romney, Murkowski, Robertson, Will, and many solid, sane Republicans rebuking the President and the corrupt Republican leadership.

    Good for them

    ~ Commonly referred to as 'RINO' . Only about 1/3rd of today's Republicans are actually conservative constitutionalists.
