Are you seeing protests in your area today?

On my way to work, there was a long line of protesters beginning with many signs in hand. "Black lives matter" "Police need to be reevaluated" "All humans deserve respect" "All police actions should be counted for" and many more.
All I could do was hold my thumb up to show them my support. Wish I could have joined them, but I'd already told customers I'd be open today, as this is the first weekend I'm back at work.

It's sad to see what this world has become. No more innocence, no more freedom, no more safety. Just judgement, fear, and anger. *sigh* I just don't want to be a part of this world anymore.

So much for social distancing

@plankter979 I was never social distancing or wearing a mask this whole time.

Yeah they tore up our city last night right on schedule 🤷‍♂️

None in my area, no. But that sounds like a reasonable protest. Better than signs expressing racism towards whites and calling for dead cops.

@Carver There were actually a couple of cops there to keep everything in order. They appeared to be friendly with the others. I saw one of them smiling and waving at one of the protesters he knew.

@silentwriter180 Good. That’s how you do a proper protest.

None here at the time. Stay safe. Good luck.

Edit: Never mind. There are peaceful protests on the other side of town.(Vegas)

I have not left my apartment in a week.

I live in the suburbs, nobody protests out here.

at 2pm, my sleepy little town (pop 30,000) is supposed to have an influx of BLM protesters... we shall see what happens
I feel that last paragraph on a spiritual level. It's rough, man.

It's the norm. People fight. They love again. They fight. Then they love yet again. 🙂
