Tough Day To Be In Law Enforcement

Personally, I want to go to a protest on Saturday in the town in which I teach but I’m very hesitant because of corona. The town has the most Covid cases and deaths of any city in the county and I’ve had a bunch of students who’ve had family members die. It’s a city where everything is close together like NYC and the notion of contracting it there scares me.
I would be at the protest if I could. I go to lots of them in the USA. But I think you should not go, at least into the crowd for this. You've been very careful and careful with your whole family. You could go and keep distance from others, wear your mask, and be safe. Alternately you could be like many others have and protest by yourself on a street corner that's busy.

That's lots of other ways to help and protest.
 
If you want to spend your brain power trying to split hairs and condemning whoever doesn’t protest the way you like is your thing.
I'll make this more clear:

- I've condemned people getting murdered. Correct, that's protesting in a way I don't like.
- I've condemned white people and others going into minority communities and victimizing them through their actions and destruction, leaving them holding the bag and leaving them as the ones taking the blame. Again, that's also protesting in a way I don't like.

If you think the above are valid forms of protest, that's on you. If you think I'm saying anything, or have said anything beyond the above in this thread, that's again on you.
 
The COVID stuff scares me while I’m out there. I’m definitely marching with space. You can do it though, but it will take courage. I hope you go!

There wouldn’t be space in this city. People would be packed together.

Yeah I need to think it over.

It’s just me and my girlfriend. I don’t have kids and I’m staying away from my olds.

You work with kids and have a family. Doesn’t sound safe. You have more on the line than I do...

is this ANTIFA? They look like terrorists. Was this the terrorist groupie that Donald warned us about? No names or markings, how do we know these guys aren’t terrorists? Can’t we call DC police to remove them?
 
I continue to be shocked at the support he still has among what I call smart rational people. Was asked by a family member I love and respect... Do you think our country is racist? I said yes... I prefaced with obviously not everyone... I mentioned we have a racist president in the response... the reply shocked me... He said... "you think the president is racist?" I was like yeah... it isn't like he hides it.

He shook his head disapprovingly... I'm conservative and I guess I skew Republican, but I hate the two party system... so I've declared myself agnostic recently. I was shocked he couldn't see the guy for what he is because he is still tied to his party.

I don't think Biden is a great answer, but I won't be voting trump. Country needs a hard restart right now.
Great post
I don't think Biden is the answer either but it least he won't cause as many problems that need answers as trump does/will.
