This isn't a shot at Americans, it just makes it hard to determine for me what is over the top and what isn't, language-wise.
I do think however that one (actually pretty common) harsh word shouldn't take away from the overall jist of the post. Which is one I have to agree with, even though I'd probably put it in different words.
I don't know about that. Who is protesting there? Conservatives, liberals, anyone?
--- But no matter who, those are idiots as well. That isn't a political issue, it's an intelligence issue. When conservatives are protesting, one can say it's idiotic, even a liberal should be able to do so. Same goes for anyone else protesting and anyone else commenting. It just is idiotic in any case, period.
What does make it political for me is Trump spurring those (actually "conservative") protesters on. No democrat does that.
Personally I think 99% of all protesting is a waste of time. Protesting Trump or really any president? Who are you trying to tell what? That a lot of people don't like the policies of a President? Thanks for letting me know.
The people who march in front of an abortion clinic? I didn't know people were against abortion. Thank God they were there to inform me.
Mike DeWine excluded political protests from the lockdown.
Just because a state gives the governor the authority to do things, it doesn't mean that authority is actually legal. The tenth amendment is a great thing, but it does say "The powers not delegated to the United States". The first amendment is delegated to the US, and as best as I can understand extended to the states by the fourteenth amendment. I think the ones in Mississippi who broke up the drive in church services are in trouble for sure.
