Did the huge protests in all the major Democrat run cities cause a spike?

Funny thing is that blacks were impacted by the virus disproportionately more than anyone.

Black lives matter? Not at all to many who claim they do, including the protesters.

Go ahead and rally if you want to.

No one is stopping you- there's no penalty in defying any of the virus' rules except infection. If you want to take that risk, then have at it.

The riots were not about the virus. People are fed up with our police killing people who are living while black and they have had enough of the deaths.

Since the cops show little sign of changing their behavior, the citizens are going to do it for them. The first step some are taking is to remove the cop's authority.

That's something much more serious than a couple of hours of a rah-rah rally for Donald Trump. Ironically, the rioters are actually a littles after from Covid when they're out on the streets in the air currents than if they were inside an arena.
(At least until the tear gas goes off. But like the virus is to the Trumpettes, the tear gas is an accepted risk to the rioters.)

If anyone wants to go all MAGA and twiddle around instead of running to the barricades, it's probably to the best they're all shuttered up in the rally anyway.

You have a major Democrat politician on record supplying & encouraging the riots while at the same time, and very hypocritically slamming Trump for ignoring Covid.
Who told you you CANNOT rally ?

No one. That’s who.

What have the “protests” actually done to solve the non existent problem of cops going out and killing black men for sport?

Democratic strategist and former Hillary Clinton cheerleader Adam Parkhomenko helped organize supplies such as lunch and water stands for a DC protest where he encouraged ‘a million’ people to come join. That didn’t stop him from tweeting ‘A thousand Americans are dying a day from the pandemic, and the president of the United States is ignoring it.’

Can you show me which Democrats support riots? I think everyone should support peaceful protests, [most (not all) of which have proper distancing], which is what your quote indicates. Is there some evidence that they are also in favor of riots? Or did you just kinda fabricate that part?

Actually the democrat governor of NC where I live did. And people have been arrested for it too.

Wrong as usual. Why have you sold yourself out like that?

Which democrats have condemned the riots? And not half heartedly? More seem mad at Trumps Nd Republicans even though these cop killings are happening in blue cities/states


And why should protests be allowed if social distancing is important? Mass protests by definition go against social distancing. If kids can’t go to the playground or people can’t go to the beach, then protests should not be allowed either. Sorry. It’s an all or nothing thing.

And yet there is a rally. So currently no one is stopping you.
