Who said this? Please show me a link. I have see exactly the opposite where most credible health experts were equally concerned about virus transmission from the BLM protests. Although one thing that could make a minor difference, the BLM protesters, at least the peaceful ones, were much more willing to wear masks and maintain social distance.

I'm talking about the public health experts who weighed in on protests lodged by people who were out of work and were tired of being locked down, but who then took a very different approach to the possible risks of infection posed by people demonstrating for a very different reason. It's as if they were implying that the Coronavirus knows to spread itself among those who are angry about the lockdown but turns itself off when the protest is about systemic racism. Which we all know is ridiculous. I did see a graphic on TV the other day from California Governor Gavin Newsom that had bullet points, among which were "large gatherings prohibited" followed shortly by "protests still OK." Let me end by saying I don't enjoy engaging in back-and-forths on Cruise Critic about COVID-19. I"m not going to debate people because it's a waste of time. I hope you have a good day but I hope you also understand that it's not really the purpose of this site and it's not a good use of my time. Also, please be aware that the moderators expect us to be courteous to one another. I have a list of ignored users who've broken this rule and I don't hesitate to use it whenever people are rude, which I am sure you won't be. 😊 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have to be allowed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time, manner and place restrictions are valid under the First Amendment. "Protesters" are not permitted to do whatever they want, and must still comply with the laws.
