They're not standing in the middle of roads, they're not engaging in acts of violence, nothing is being destroyed, nothing is on fire, nobody is looting, so... they look like peaceful protestors? Usually I'd call them out on the face masks, but people are supposed to be wearing those now.

And considering the devastating impact of the lockdown on the American workforce and economy, this is a pretty important matter. I know a lot of posters here are too young to really remember the 2008 Recession or weren't fully integrated into the workforce at the time, but as terrible as that was, the economic downturn from this might be far worse. While some preventative measures need to remain in place to a certain extent, these protestors have a pretty valid point.

Like somebody decided their family tree would make a nice wreath.

Yet another racist remark.

And that's by their own fucking admission.

It's also ridiculous display of privilege at work, when other groups that protest for things that actually matter and are treated as criminals met with violence. Yet these dipshits can gather with guns in hand with absolutely no repercussion. (Other than the virus that they're most likely contracting.)

...because those other protests -- which, by the way, are often for far more bullshit things -- frequently turn violent or involve property damage in the first place.
