IMO If the city is allowing a protest then ALL business should be allowed to re-open. You can't pick and choose when a virus and the health of the public is applicable.
The 15 000 folks at the leg choose to be selfish and if they are allowed to neglect being responsible then why should the rest of the province need to follow the rules?
Or should the protest organizers also be fined heavily like local businesses for not following orders?
You can cut your hair from home, you can also protest from home.
Disagree. It’s not the City letting them. The other option is do prevent them. And that’s worse then the risk of letting them. As we’ve seen.
I think people have to look at this threw the lens of history. This could (not saying it will) be a very major historic turning point on American history. And yes there will very likely be covid spikes. But how many cities and states were allowing people to gather anyway.
So another way to look at it is if people can pack the beach why can’t they protest.

I’ve never debated the importance of BLM as a cause... i was on board with it twenty years ago to be honest
however you are the only one to even sort of answer the underlying question - why would covid not spread like wildfire through these global protests... especially in the US with the police using tear gas on the most susceptible populations to the virus?
instead of anyone really answering I get accusations that I don’t support the cause - it’s a very strange world these days
I said the same thing but you didn’t understand it. Oh well.

So there going to run on “it can’t get any worse. Stick with us”

Another typical non sequitur...
You do this ALL THE TIME - jump in late to an argument... then make yourself sound like some kind of hero - you're the ultimate 'hey me too' poster on here... 'stand and be judged'... too much hahah
You still cannot answer why the BLM protestors will be affected differently than the haircut rednecks. And I don't expect you will.
Again you’re just one of those triggered posters who has to insult a poster with nonsense because you’re incapable of making a point yourself. I’m sorry if the discussion is beyond your comprehension. You should re-read what I wrote, think about it for a moment, and then apologize. You attacked me. Because you failed to understand.
your continued whining about protests is either because you don’t support them or you’re really bored and just want to argue on the internet. As I stated originally the issue is the people who were whining about covid restrictions are no seemingly on board with them if it means no protests. Assuming that means they don’t agree with the protests is the logical conclusion
Get it?

Dude you're the king of condescenion on here...
If anyone ever disagrees with your stance, you cry that they are Trumpers or just 'don't get it'
Your point makes no sense - its not about whether BLM is more important or not...
Why would covid affect BLM protestors differently than Miami beach partiers or the haircut rebellion? You don't have an answer so instead you resort to personal attacks as always.
Haha What’s your problem? Did your best friend get suspended from here or something?
read what I wrote again. You completely didn’t understand it. And that’s not on me. It’s on you.

Or an 'I don't have an answer so I'll criticize this post without providing substance' button...
Nah a button to label posts that are obvious trolling nonsense. You’re whole silly argument is to judge the covid response based on numbers today. Without factoring in if people like you had their way and they did no lockdown, the numbers would be wildly more awful. And now diminishing the protests as some sort of asinine gotcha to people who criticize trumps response to the pandemic.
If you don’t support what the protestors are protesting for, just say that. Stand and be judged. If you think all the medics experts and government health officers over reacted then say it and be done so we can all move on

Not bad...
But I still don't understand your position on the protests?
Do you think the protests will spark a second wave and if not, why not?
Is it because covid doesn't spread easily outside - even in large crowds - then there's no real reason not to restart the CFL season?
Or did the protestors 'use precautions' even though most images contradict this claim? It would follow that if we moderately social distance and a few wear masks we can go right back to normal - instead of completely restructuring society?
we really need the eye roll “like/dislike” for posts like this.

A typical TUP post...
You don't have to be a 'truther' to see the flaw in the logic that covid does not affect people if its a good cause.
To say that protestors were taking precautions is delusional - even in Canada, its a mixed bag - definitely not social distancing...
But again that's my point - its easy to mock the Trump dummies when they gathered in public... but now that BLM is a good cause and a cause we all believe in - yet its contrary to what we've been told we can/can't do... its tough
Oh pal don’t start with me. Save the condescension and rhetoric or don’t address me.
I’ll restate my point since it seems to have gone over your head. I’m specifically referring to all the jackasses that wanted to go get hair cuts and go to bars because it’s their right. And are now trying to say everyone should stay at home. Hypocritical. If you want to side with those people go for it. But don’t get upset with the response.
Mass protests certainly violate directives with respect to covid. But if you’re not sure the difference between a demand to get a haircut and protesting racial injustice in an historic moment in time, then you’re simply not going to get it.

Any predictions in what, if anything, happens to this man once Biden has officially won the election?
I know what I’m hoping for.
I’d have to strongly suspect he’d be investigated. If the Dems win senate control then you may see senate hearings on the trump admin and Barr would get caught up in that. But he may skirt actual criminal wrongdoing. He’ll certainly be remembered as an enabler of a wannabe fascist regime and the architect of chemical attacks on his own people.

Not everyone, I was watching the global stream and from what I watched it looked at about 80% of the people wearing masks. I definitely saw many faces and was trying to pick out if I recognized anyone. Absolutely nobody social distanced.
We’re you surprised that 20,000 people at the leg and marching down broadway were unable to social distance? There actually were people distancing to a degree. But that many people in that area made it virtually impossible.
But again, needing a hair cut and protesting racism are two very different things.

There’s a bit of a Republicans for Biden movement. They say country over party. Hopefully it gains traction. Influential Republicans can make a difference.

Took a big L on that one. What an impotent loser

That's why I think that he needs a well spoken articulate and aggressive VP pick, someone who will keep Trump's campaign in check and call out Trump for his misdeeds and lies, yup still on the Kamala Harris bandwagon
I agree. Harris would be perfect. Because trump would attack her so much and it would be obvious a large reason is her gender and skin colour.

2020 is perfect Biden. He doesn’t have to attend 100 rally’s a day where gaffes will be magnified. Trump us screwing himself everyday. As the campaign goes on there will be more to do and more focus but for now I think Biden is handling things perfectly.

And I’ve got to be honest. The truthers they wanted everyone to go out and live life and are now saying oh I thought we had to all stay home, can get bent. For one it makes them seem opposed to the protests.
More importantly this is historic. It’s too big. Too important. And the fact so many protesters are actually taking precautions is great.
