All we hear is from the "experts" is

We need to social distance. So why are none of them concerned about the thousands of idiots shoulder to shoulder in street protesting a rock carving? Why no concern for the 3 months of shoulder to shoulder mobs still "Protesting" George Floyd???
Experts..
What I’m seeing are certified doctors being censored and politicians and billionaires being promoted as ... experts
The doctors never said any of that was okay, so I don’t know what you’re going on about.
@JT123 Just because I disagree with you, doesn’t make me a liberal. I don’t even believe governments should exist.

@MorbidCynic No but resorting to name calling because I don't agree with you makes you a liberal
@JT123 thats not how political parties work.

[i]Don't blame the experts you put between dismissive quotation-marks[/i]!

Those doctors and scientists [i]are [/i]experts in their fields but can only advise and plead. They have no control over those wilfully ignoring them. Regulations are the task of the politicians, police and judiciary.

Not just political protests either.

I am told elsewhere that a huge annual bikers' rally that attracts (supposedly or actually) many thousands of rider from all over the US was still intending to go ahead despite everything.

To be fair I don't know the outcome of that rally, but it seems odd anyone would even still consider holding it when all manner of cultural and sporting events everywhere else are being cancelled even as far ahead as Christmas.
Why interfere with natural selection?
As long as everyone else social distances let natural selection deal with the rest.

One such "expert" said
"The cause is greater than the risk"
Context is useful.

Likelihood of transmission outdoors is much much lower and many people are wearing masks which further reduces the risks.

That is different from a bunch of people packed into a store with narrow aisles designed to maximize product per square inch or bars designed to maximize the number of bodies they can cram in to a small space.

Uhm, I think no expert said the protests were safe, nor were unconcerned about them? 🤔

@JT123 Experts are telling them what to do! The idiots don't follow. They'll Do It Their Way!!!

@cycleman I haven't heard one mention the protests.
cycleman · 61-69, M
@JT123 you don't listen then.

They are.

They can't stop the protests, they can only advise against them. Mandates would fall under your cult leader's scope of power, no doctors'.
Double standard
