This is insanely easy to differentiate. Was there illegal activity including arson, looting and destruction of property happening? If yes, that's a riot. If no, then it might be a protest.
So would you be willing to contend that these "protests" did not coincide with massive amounts of looting, burning, assault, murder, arson, etc.? Would you be willing to make the case here and now that none of "peaceful protestors" engaged in violence, looting, arson and rioting?
LOL. Yeah, I'm gonna go with the opinion of a random poster on City Data. No thanks.
Each person is welcome to believe what he/she wants. You're welcome to think this is extremely dangerous virus and even stay home, lock your door and put the blanket over your head. The rest of us will go on with our life and enjoy it.
The Rioters will spread it, have now spread it - like Fire... THEY WILL NOW BE TO BLAME. How's that???
Most of the outbreaks occurring now are not in the riot areas, they are in Texas, Arizona, Florida, South Carolina, Utah. These spikes in cases are probably related to right-leaning states that reopened early.

A person can think the virus is extremely dangerous and still live their life and enjoy it. I don't stay home, lock my door, and put a blanket over my head and I'm 70 with pre-existing conditions that put me at risk. I wear my mask in stores, use hand sanitizer, and stay at an appropriate distance from other shoppers. However, I go shopping at Lowes and Home Depot, local garden centers, various grocery stores, the pharmacy (indoors, not the drive-through and go for walks in the city and my neighborhood. It's simply a matter of taking sensible precautions while living mu life as usual. I enjoy my life, safely, just fine.
I call BS until they condemn the BLM rioters and insurrections as the threat that they are. We all heard how dangerous and irresponsible it was for protestors on the opposite side were. If COVID-19 suddenly stops mattering when your political allies are protesting, rioting and wrecking everything in site, then clearly it never really mattered to you all that much. You never really considered it to be a serious threat to anyone. It was just a convenient excuse to make violating the rights of the political opposition seem legitimate.
What will they say if there's a massive spike in Covid-19 in all those Democrat-controlled cities -- the ones that their psychotic little Communist foot-soldiers just burned down -- in about a week or so? My money's on them them saying not a damn thing.
Arizona is s hitting 83% hospital capacity. In two weeks we can easily see that at 100% if the extra testing leads to more hospitalizations.
