Are you talking about what's going on in Minnesota? That has nothing to do with covid-19!

i disagree, it not directly related but lets see all of this happen if everyone isnt wearing a mask. Also if everyone isnt at home for 2 months and no jobs for lots of them gives them a lot more time and energy to head outside into the late hours versus having jobs to go too.

Whats sad is many of the demonstrators or however you will call them and I know there are different groups within the groups have received pay checks from the government while they are looting and buying supplies to loot with government money and also many of the protestors are relying on the same police that they accuse the whole force as police brutality to now protect them from more violent people....weird to need and demand protection from the same people you are demonstrating against

also whats sad is the politics involved...people already saying 'most' people in minnesota causing the violence are from out of town and there is russian influence ....not sure what facts they have to support this.

You think any of those people had jobs in the first place?

100% related to Covid.

What I don't get:

1. Why do the police let the looters loot.......they have a free pass to continue doing it. Don't just stand around. Prevent it or arrest those doing.

2. What the hell is taking so long in charging those other 3 officers.

3. Why our President doesn't step in and do something/say something productive. One thing I've learned over the past few months is he is quite an idiot, not exactly breaking news, but even moreso once the pressure was on. At the beginning of this I was on his side, but good god, this is our President????? He's fine for the job when all is going good, and did some good things during the Covid Crisis, but he serious needs to stay off Twitter, he's not a 27 year girl pop star, seriously ignore the noise and focus on your job.

I'm still for going full blown open it up, enough with the baby steps, cause yes that is fueling these riots. Enough of being afraid of a stupid virus, yes do as much social distancing etc to prevent the spread, but NOTHING should be closed. Live at your own risk. People are sick of being bottled up and here you go....BOOM!!!!

would be really easy for Biden or a female vice president nominee to go down to one of these cities on a loudspeaker and say they are with them and will make sure will pursue reform and they do not not need to be violent etc. It would be great for the campaign and help get more votes i would think

instead he is in his basement.....

Exactly name Oprah or Michelle OBama Vice President and get your ass out of the basement.

Both sides complete chaos.

Or.....can there just be an independent candidate, that beats both these clowns......if it wasn't all tied to money and the rich, I think this would be best for America. Instead we are going to have two grumpy old men, both out of touch with today's world as the 2 choices in November, Lord help us.

Please let's hope a 3rd party steps in.

They made a big deal about that Ozarks party that someone there had Covid.

its quite possible that elderly people are going to die because of the protests and lack of social distancing, there was a outcry when people were protesting about opening up the government due to lack of social distancing...shop owners also were put in jail for opening up their businesses to early.....

i hope that the young people that were protesting get tested and stay away from their elderly family members and elderly people in general or people with health conditions...there has been many mentions about minority communities being at risk to covid already...hopefully there will be some responsibility among the looters and protesters.

I have a friend that says he saw online a few pawn shops with incredible prada and gucci items that just came in....i really question if the method of getting these products was legit as they they all just arrived...maybe ebay next too
