The protestors have no clear goals anymore. They started out with one, that the cop who killed Floyd needed to be taken in, and they accomplished it. Now they're just shouting vague platitudes which can neither be proven nor disproven.

i agree with what you say, but personally i would feel terrible if i wasn't at least doing something about it

kinda like when people who don't vote complain about how terrible x is
Voting at least has some chance to bring about change. (Though I have an excuse not to vote in American election, and I'm definitely going to complain about your president.)

In all likely hood, he wont serve much time. People want police accountability all around though. Even if this one guy gets arrested, it's going to keep happening unless things change.

They never had a goal. Just using outrage to plunder and destroy.

Let them all get the virus.

lmfao imagine this being your situation and not seeing something wrong with working yourself to near death to maybe be slightly comfortable by the time you are ready to croak

whats the alternative? Live in a shelter? Go on welfare and live in a bachelor apartment? Be a man in his 50's living welfare check to welfare check with not even 50 dollars in a bank account? forget it....i'll leave that to the stay at home neets who never went to school or got a job....once their parents are dead they are in for a rude awakening..i may work hard now but i'll be fine,

I agree with the idea behind the movement but I dont like the way a portion of the protesters are conducting themselves.

I live with high risk people and I'm currently sick with something not fully known yet anyways. There was a very peaceful protest in Saratoga Springs the other day, even the mayor took part, so if that is still happening I may stop by when I am feeling better. I'll keep my distance just to be safe, but I'll show my support.

Several reasons.

I live in a small town, no protests.
I don't have a car and the closest place where I could find a protest is probably nashville, which is two hours away.
There's a pandemic going on.
I don't want to be involved in any situation that's likely to break out into violence.
