    Re: CDC Officials Warn of Coronavirus Outbreaks in the United States.

    Well, I expected social distancing to continue to erode, but I didn't expect simultaneous protests/riots in nearly every major urban area in America.
    I write things on the Internet.

      It is interesting to see the exact same people go from, "stay at home, you idiots. You are costing lives!" to "this uprising is super important, and i support it." A strange world. Makes me think not as many believed what they were saying.

          Nah. Nobody really believes anything. That's why people are so fickle and have no real logical, consistent basis for what they believe, how they act, etc.

          It's all trendy and wanting to feel part of something because they don't want to appear to their friends to be uncaring, or uninitiated, or whatever. From watching TV shows to going to the latest hop restaurant to making posts about causes to "STAY. THE ****. HOME." to changing your social media photo to a filter and so on.

            You should alter your news sources if that is the message you think people making.

            Because I want them to go home. But I also understand how watching the police murder blacks on video makes them feel less secure in a lockdown.

            It’s a **** show, and only populist ****bags are using this as a gotcha moment.

            Because I think our political leaders should have acted faster to avoid this instead of egging on protesters get from the White House. Had the cop been arrested day one, maybe protests don’t get carried away like this.

              I fully support protesting against the police because what they did and have been doing is wrong. But the people rioting and hurting innocent store owners are just being idiots and are making everything worse. No need to loot stores when you're trying to protest.

                It's not so much of a gotcha, as it is showing what is acceptable. If protests (the peaceful ones) are encouraged, and looked as vital, beautiful and admirable (which they can be) in the current context, then we are well passed the point of talking about military enforced lockdowns and other extreme measures. We're admitting what this really is.

                  There were protests being done a few weeks ago and people were condemning them. Now they aren’t condemning them. It’s either you’re against protesting because of social distance, spreading the virus or you are for the protests regardless of the reason.

                  For me I’m pro protest as I don’t see the virus being as bad as some claim. Guess we will find out in 2 weeks.

                    How should they do it then? Because peaceful protests sure didn’t work.

                        Guys, let's keep this thread on topic. If you want to talk about the protests against social distancing and to reopen, that's fine, but if you want to talk about the latest wave of protests/riots then create a new thread but also be mindful of the TOS when discussing it. I realize some of you are just comapring the reactions to the different protests, but lets not get too far off topic here.

                              At the end of the day the result is the same. Large numbers of people being out and intermingling during a pandemic. Just because one is seen as righteous and one is seen as more frivolous does not change that. Have to remove the emotion from it.

                                It does change that.
