halfmanhalfbronco Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Given COVID and the lack of social distancing and what we know about how the virus transmutes and impacts the black community, I think it is fair to say the deaths from the protests will eventually reach the thousands. Food for thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Food for thought. Probably, as well as white, hispanics and every other ethnic group who participated. But it's going to be hard to associate future cases with those protests. I could be wrong. ....but they could have been infected pretty much anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halfmanhalfbronco Posted June 25, 2020 Author Share Posted June 25, 2020 88 African Americans were shot last year, too many wrongfully. The protests will be responsible for killing far, far, far more this year. Even if the number is not quantifiable, what we know about COVID means this to be true 100%.

Again, according to the latest CDC briefing, social spacing is ALL. Masks help, but social spacing is the key, Per the CDC, period, cloth masks help, a little and should be used. Many had masks, but many did not. The left is getting carried away with the mask thing. YES WE SHOULD USE THEM, but no, per every study by every country done without social spacing masks do LITTLE +++++ING GOOD. They think wearing a mask makes not social distancing just +++++ing ok. WRONG!! More people will die because democratic leadership refused to advocate for social distancing than will die from police brutality in decade. Good job Democrats!!!! But, hey, +++++ Mitch, amirite? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halfmanhalfbronco Posted June 25, 2020 Author Share Posted June 25, 2020 Wearing a mask is something you do on top of social distancing, without social spacing, especially in the freaking thousands, the mask is nearly pointless in those numbers.

Agreed. Masks, especially cloth masks that most are wearing are not fool proof. The virus is smaller than the openings in cloth masks. You can’t go up face to face and talk to someone safely. Distancing is still critical. Masks do cut down on the splatter effect from sneezing or coughing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SalinasSpartan Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 I guess it’s a good thing the states that have mask orders only mandate that they be worn when social distancing isn’t possible; meaning social distancing is the first line of defense.

Food for thought. I saw Martha McCallum interview the extremely confrontational and angry Hawk Newsome who speaks for the New York BLM chapter, and he says that he very much supports violence to further his cause because it’s only fair. He said any whites ever want any significant change, they use violence per the revolutionary war, civil war, or any other change it wants made around the world. So the NY BLM basically wants a 60’s/70’s style violent black panther group Type of group (he didn’t describe it as BP, I did). He said he wants his armed citizen patrol to follow the cops around and take action against them, including violence, when they think the cops do something wrong. This is the kind of BLM dipshit that corporations and donors just armed with 10’s of millions of dollars that will cause pure chaos. BLM’s has some good chapters with some good people with the right ideas. But as usual, the dipshits always seem to muscle their way in and ruin everything that the good legit people are doing to solve the legit problems.

Completely fine with him and his friends following cops around. If you think he is advocating they turn their guns on cops, I think you are an idiot. Your post also has nothing to do with my thread.

That’s what he heavily implied, stud. Hawk acts like an unstable idiot and openly endorses violence. You endorse violence? You’re the most unpredictable strange dude ever.
