The real question is why You can’t admit that the protests weren’t a main factor at all.

But you called it the main cause. I didn't. I said it was a contributing cause.

I don't consider it a main factor because the evidence says its not. You are just as likely to get the coronavirus getting a haircut as you are being outside protesting. If it was this overwhelming cause, you would see higher numbers among protestors where we can say they are daisychaining it to countless other people.

Its easy to place blame on the protestors (because most of them are from the left and we know how much you love blaming the left) and they're a large group of people. The fact is so are people doing everyday activities they weren't able to do previously or for that matter were continuing to do as more things opened up. Just because i can't put a number on people going to bars, restaurants, businesses they weren't able to attend, doesn't mean it didn't happen in mass. Human behavior doesn't helped matters either. American exceptionalism makes us think we don't need to play by the same rules and that our freedom to do things how we want to do them is most important.

Well, maybe this is a dose of reality.

You can disagree all you want but none of the evidence supports your theory that protesting is the main cause for the rise in infections.

Sucks. I wonder when any of us will be able to travel again. I know there's a bigger scope but its easy to miss the things you used to be able to do.

It’s a shame but expected .

So while we are at it why not just wipe away all of the Southern States too?

Those States represent on what happened in history and people want to erase things that are associated with the slavery era. The Dixie Chicks erased Dixie from their name because Dixie represents the Southern States. Really? How more stupid can you get?

This is getting so ridiculous and pathetic.

And then these morons in SF want to take down Ulysses S Grant’s statue as well.

Uh, his side won the Civil War you idiots!

Every single one of the people who are even associated with taking away this taking away that are not ERASING HISTORY. THAT will never go away. If you don’t like what had happened in this Country then leave. You can’t change it. That stain never erases no matter how hard you try.

What is next? Print new money because the people on the money had slaves?

You could really cut down on the arguments if you weren't wrong about so many things.

No Jorge from where I'm sitting you love to fight. You strike me as a classic contrarian. You are so entrenched at times, it leaves one wondering how genuine the argument is or is it just the contrarian streak in you holding firm.

That's ok. Lively debate is good. However you must also be willing to accept defeat when your argument is dismantled.

The Florida Department of Health is reporting 8,942 new cases of Covid-19 today. That's a huge spike and the highest single day reporting of cases since the start of the pandemic.

Thank you governor DeSantis for your diligent efforts and timely reponse.

In anticipation of a Jorge retort, while the numbers aren't as bad as other states (Arizona, Florida, Texas) California's spike is startling nonetheless: Hospitalizations have increased 32% over the past 14 days and ICU hospitalizations are up 19%.

Wonder what his feelings are now?

I bet the governors of the other 20 or so states feel the same way as he does and yet the only attacks are towards desantis . Bias much?

The difference is his braggadocious attitude towards the whole thing. Well, if you're going to be that smug and that defiant don't be surprised when it blows up in your face.
