Did social distancing collapse during the protests over the George Floyd killing in Minneapolis?

[A Hit With The Ladies]

From my perspective, all of the sudden the sanctimonious Coronavirus "Karens", who act like you're committing a war crime if you don't want to wear a mask and stay at least six feet away from other people, have gone silent. Maybe they would rather have us all die from Corona rather than risk getting called racist or something LOL

Who’s got time for social distancing when POC are getting murdered ... in plain view. AGAIN.

“A riot is the language of the unheard” - a quote made by MLKJ more than half a century ago. Half a century. For the same issues. Were it not for the killing of yet another black man, and police behavior, there wouldn’t be protests. This lit the match, figuratively and literally. Does it justify the rampages? Honestly? I don’t know. Maybe this time, there will be change. How many times, and years, do we need to go through the same damn thing? We see the same thing, and hear our politicians say “change!” ... but nothing. Then a few months, a few years later and rinse, repeat.

George Floyd was a public lynching. For ... what? Sean Reed, Trayvon Martin, Eric Garner, Michael Brown, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor ... so many names and they just keep coming.

Technicality: Trayvon Martin was killed by another person of color. George Zimmerman’s mother was born in Peru and had mixed African ancestry.

I think he was a teenager followed and wrongly shot dead. The shooter was not arrested that day because police thought they lacked the evidence. Why not?

"...sanctimonious Coronavirus "Karens", who act like you're committing a war crime..." From what I see you are using a meme in a passive-aggressive manner and I'll call you out on that one. Nurses don't need to be mean, and your verbiage is just that...mean.

By the way, I'm male, so perhaps you might want to be fair and add "Kevins" to your comments. Disagree respectfully with what others say or do and I will support you...be mean and rude and I will not. We don't need that attitude here.
