    What about this White coat summit that went on yesterday in DC?

    I’ve seen a few links talking about it, anyone know?

    and i suppose, in your mind, every single person doing those is a right wing, conservative pro-trumper because we all know liberals and democrats would never do those, like they would never riot and destroy federal and public property, i'm talking to you seattle and portland.

    So, if it was only indoor activities, was accusing all those college kids on the beach at spring break an anomaly? Come on, do you really believe what you type?

    We did. Unfortunately Newsom caved to enormous political pressure to reopen quicker but then had to shut some things back down.

    Political Pressure from who? The Dems control 100% of the state with super majorities? Or did you mean, he caved to the WH?

    Except for the false flag white supremacists who imbed themselves with peaceful protestors.

    The kids on spring break were also going to indoor bars and not wearing masks. That was very early In the pandemic. People didn’t know to wear masks then. And post proof. Links showing that these outdoor demonstrations are creating spread or community spread. Real science.

    I'm guessing there was political pressure from powerful businesses, which also carry ample influence; all the businesses in California aren't liberal... hell, my favorite print magazine, Guns, is published/printed there.

    Sure. The Antifa boogeyman spread by Trump. Anti fascists really bitter the right for some reason. But here is what they are finding in the demonstrations. Lots of similar links. But it is off topic

    Biz community, mainly. Despite the majorities this isn't only about formal political power.

    it seems the prevailing attitude on this thread is if you do not wear a mask or social distance you are a rightwing protrumper, at least that is the impression i got. find it hard to believe all those beach goers and concert attendes are right wing pro trumpers

    And all the protestors and rioters. Of course they couldn’t pass COVID to one another. That’s crazy talk...
