Yep... What the Leftist media has said about Covid during this last week of protests, is essentially NOTHING, save a "mention".
They have uttered ZERO condemnation which gives proof unequivocal that the condemnations of Protestors in relation to Covid was 100% POLITICAL.

You want to work, feed your family, etc. you were going to kill grandma, but somehow these protests, nobody's killing grandma.
Leftists LIE and are corrupt in their every word. Especially Leftist media, 100% proven to be FAKE NEWS. They are nothing more than a political arm of the Democrat Party.

They are not "reporters", they are Propagandists for the Democrat Agenda. That's a fact, that's not an opinion.
And it's exactly why we are having these protests, because Democrat Media promotes these race-related lies, that blacks are under siege by white people, when it's actually the opposite, that cops kill more blacks, when it's the opposite. Yes, per-capita cops kill more blacks, but only because blacks encounter the police more for serious crimes, but since blacks commit more serious crimes than whites, cops actually should be killing more blacks, not whites.

Thus, clearly the ONLY people who have "privilege" in this country are blacks, because Leftists enable and program them with racial hate, as well as other Leftists, and allow them to do whatever they want, to kill, to rape, to loot, etc. under the guise of "protesting" as well as in general because of the lie they promote of "systematic racism" and otherwise.
This is exactly right. Somehow not resisting arrest is never an option for these folks. Something about this covid thing reeks of political sabotage. I can tolerate reverse racism but blocking the interstates, physically assaulting shopkeepers, and looting is intolerable. And yet this pales in comparison to the liberal white media shutting down our economy in a colossal overreaction at best and treasonous sabotage against the American economy and worker at worst.

I went to our dealership today and EVERYONE was wearing masks. They even had plexiglass shields everywhere, even in their courtesy van! What’s Ajax “I can’t wait to kill Americans in the upcoming civil war” 18 on about?

Virus transmission is not an easy concept for right-wingers to grasp. Too much carbon monoxide inhaled at the Demolition Derby and Mud Pull.

So what's the point in sitting six feet away from each other in a restaurant and waiting 3 hours to be seated? We can't have a sacrament meeting with more than 50 people but we can all crowd together in a protest?
Indoors vs. outdoors. Barely comparable. I wear an n95 mask if I step inside any enclosed space. I don't wear it or any mask ever outside, even on relatively crowded walks, although I def. stay away from people as I can. Protesting during a pandemic is def. not recommended, and Surgeon General warned on CNN that this will lead to an increase in cases.

Masks don't even work! This shutdown was a massive waste and this protest proves you don't even believe in social distancing.

Most people have underestimated the lengths the media would go to in an effort to separate this president from his base.

1. Yes, unfortunately, they have been brainwashed by the race hustle of Leftists and those like Al Sharpton that they are "oppressed" and thus need to "fight the man", so all they do is resist.
However, to be clear, I did not see Floyd "resisting". I saw him suffering due to his issues, even before he was on the ground and the incident. He was walking and sat against the wall and was clearly suffering. But you're correct in general.

2. Yes, it is absolutely political Sabatoge...
Governments reacted to the Leftist UK Statistician who predicted 2.2 Million Deaths in the U.S.
This statistician by the way had like 4 other "predictions" that governments acted on, which also were massively FALSE, killing lots of animals etc.
Leftist media were promoting that lie, as well as saying 30 Million dead, etc.

Anyway, it's now 100% clear it was political given their response to the two different types of "protestors".

3. Yes, and I don't know why protesters are allowed to "block traffic" and the right of way of others.
You can protest, but it should be illegal and punished for infringing on OTHERS Rights.
Then you have Democrat Leaders and Leftist media "praising" those criminals, not condemning it, and saying that they give rioters "free-range" to do whatever they feel they need to do, that they won't stop them.

4. Yep, Leftists in general including their media ministers of propaganda are destroying the West.
There would be no protest if blacks and liberals, in general, understand that there leaders and media are entirely LYING to them about race, that they are promoting a certain false narrative for them to believe.
The mainstream media is a bit more subtle, but this narrative is easily provable by watching TYT videos (The Young Turks). They are 100% the race game, almost every video is the race hustle, outright lying about events and situations over and over again. Just look at their video list, it's just racism racism racism.

Our tennis club was outdoors. Now it's bankrupt. Are they still arresting people for golfing? My kids park and swimming pool was cordoned off. They weren't even allowed to play with their friends outside.

What about people protesting social distancing outside in Michigan? Why does it only spread Covid when people right of center protest?

ldsfaqs I read Floyd physically refused to get in the squad car by dropping his legs out from under him, hence the struggle that ensued.

"Our tennis club was outdoors. Now it's bankrupt. "

Yeah, I don't believe there was ever any real risk there. Sorry about the club. It's one of those rule-utilitarian things.

"Are they still arresting people for golfing? "

Before or after re-opening? Your comparison would need to begin with protests in places that haven't re-opened for such activity. I haven't followed it, so feel free to fill me in after you've done the research you should have done before posting.

"My kids park and swimming pool was cordoned off. They weren't even allowed to play with their friends outside."

see above. More risky than tennis though.

"What about people protesting social distancing outside in Michigan? Why does it only spread Covid when people right of center protest?"

again, are we talking about during lockdown or after?

So let him lay there then...

What I'm stating is that even when he was across the street after being cuffed he was clearly showing issues with the cuffs, experiencing some sort of pain or something.

Anyway, 5 min's of 3 cops sitting on a guy, one on his neck and the other just watching when he was clearly suffering, and instead of helping the guy, instead argues with bystanders who also could clearly see he was suffering, that's depraved indifference.

To be clear, I'm not against cops in general, or incidents like the so-called "jogger", which he wasn't, and he got himself killed.
But, I'm also well familiar when police abuse their power. I'm certain I've watched over 2,000 videos on YouTube over the years in relation to police abuse of power, be it blacks, whites, 1st/2nd Amendment Auditors, the bystander filming, etc. Plus, I spent the first 20 years of my life preparing to go into law enforcement. So, I know the lines well... This one was crossed.
