> I agree that it is a less-than-ideal time to protest police brutality and racial injustice. However, I'd argue still - when is?
I'm not trying to say that people shouldn't protest. I'm only pointing out that a lot of people who are very pro police brutality protests right now were 5 minutes ago saying that protesting lock downs and going out is tantamount to murdering grandma.
> Minorities are also disproportionately impacted by the pandemic...
Is there any evidence that this is a result of racism? We are seeing the same elevated impact on blacks in other countries.
> The people protesting the lock-downs appeared to largely be protesting lifestyle inconvenience
It's more of protesting the government destroying peoples' livelihoods by driving their small businesses into the ground. Moreover, it is an unconstitutional overreach.
