Why does the media complain about trump rallies but not the riots?
One is a loose group of people protesting the unjust murder of George Floyd and the other is the POTUS organizing an event with very few, if any safety precautions.

Pretty much this. I'd just add that it's gotten bigger than the murder of George Floyd at this point, it's protesting systemic racism.
Not that OP would understand, he was arguing in the other thread that black people are poorer because they're dumber, and that they have a predisposition to being criminals because they lack values or some shit, so good luck having a discussion with the guy.

the protests (i haven't seen much about riots in a while..?) are outdoors and masked
a trump rally is a close-quarters indoors event where people who proudly don't wear masks yell and laugh and breathe in each other's faces. that's not taking place like almost anywhere else right now, esp not for some flop of a political rally
also OP it seems like you live in a very specific corner of the internet so maybe you don't know but the US public supports the protests and it isn't even close, it's like 70% support

Sure, please tell me what I apparently said about the Jews, I'd be curious to hear what slander you'll be making up!
Everyone is free to go read your posts in the other thread and see if I contorted anything, I'd say I made a fairly accurate recap.
The fact that the protests are outside and people wear masks makes a big difference. But nobody is denying that the protests are going to spread covid but look at the reason behind the protests vs trumps rallys.
One is to stand up for hundreds of year of racial injustice and the other is so the orange toddler can abuse his power for 4 more years.
Pachankzyes, as in stay the fuck out of my lane. kid.
OhhhHhHHHHH I am definitely staying out of your lane, because you are a Prius, in the slow line getting blocked by #BLM rioters
I am in the Fastlanedriving a purple Lamborghini equipped with LMT laser technology
Nice going there little pupper It's time for thebig boy German Shepard to overtake you

I’m unironically smarter than 99% of people around me. Mainly in creative and realistic thinking - without illusion.
COMPARING RALLIES WHERE PEOPLE CHEER AN ELDERLY RACIST FOR DRINKING WATER WITH ONE HAND TO A MODERN DAY NATIONAL CIVIL RIGHTS/CRIMINAL REFORM MOVEMENT.

YOU MAKE COMPLETE SENSE.
I’m talking about the media’s hypocrisy of calling out trump rallies for being a harbouring ground of covid, yet the rioters get off Scott free.
Again, you are operating at the meta-level. I’m not talking about the issues that each event is working for, I’m talking about covid related fears. I’m not surprised you don’t understand, most people on NS have poor reading comprehension / abstract thinking skills

Because there's a lot of evidence around the transmission of COVID being worse indoors than out you dimwit.
Demonstrations and bar visits — in Ada County, Idaho, two kinds of outings that illustrate how drastically different SARS-CoV-2 transmission can look in contrasting environments across the United States.
There was no spike of COVID-19 cases associated with a June 2 vigil of 5,000 people, who gathered in front of the Idaho Capitol in honor of black Americans killed by police or vigilante violence, the Idaho Press reported last week. The vigil took place outside, the majority of attendees wore face masks, and few people spoke outside of preselected speakers. All of these factors can contribute to lower transmission of viral droplets. Protests in which people shout may pose higher risk of transmission, but attendees of those demonstrations also tend to wear masks.
Contrast that with the conditions at crowded bars: speaking and drinking in close quarters, fewer masks, and inhibitions lowered by alcohol can all create a more effective path for virus transmission. In Ada County, a cluster of 69 coronavirus cases was linked to people who visited bars mostly located in downtown Boise, according to the Idaho Press.
Idaho’s Central District Health announced on Monday that Boise and the larger Ada County, which moved to the final stage of reopening on June 13, will be reverting to the previous stage of reopening, following a spike in coronavirus cases. As part of that return to the previous stage, bars and nightclubs will be closed.
“Speech droplets disperse more rapidly into the space around us, and provided we practice physical distancing, the probability of transmission likely becomes lower,” said a spokesperson from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK).
A report by NIDDK outlines speech experiments conducted using high powered lasers. The experiments found that loud speech can lead to the release of thousands of oral fluid droplets per second. In the stagnant air environment created in their lab, the droplets stayed in the air for between eight and 14 minutes. Speech droplets, they say, rapidly dehydrate, shrinking in size, slowing their descent to the ground.
“The study showed that droplets can remain airborne for many minutes in a quiet box without much convection or other air currents. The researchers speculate that the droplets could remain in the air for longer stretches and potentially cover larger spaces in a real environment where there is plenty of air movement,” said a NIDDK spokesperson in a written response to questions submitted to the team.
Systemic racism -> inequality of opportunity for black people -> black people are poorer -> higher criminality.
These are symptoms, fix the root problem and the rest will eventually follow.
If you want apple to apple stats showing that our justice system is very much racist:
- Black male offenders are 21.2 percent less likely than White male offenders to receive a non-government sponsored downward departure or variance.
- Black male offenders receive sentences on average 20.4 percent longer than similarly situated White male offenders.

Source pls.
little1337it's almost as if black Americans are more likely to grow up in an impoverished area which has a direct correlation to violence and drug use!
What are you trying to prove? There’s a correlation? No shit. Why don’t you try to answer my question because no one has yet, is being poor or living in poverty an excuse to victimize someone or commit crime?
Charlie_KellyIt’s funny how you can’t answer the question.
Says the person responding to TWO questions and not answering either one....
I know you won't actually take my response seriously, but I'll give it a crack anyway in hopes to get through.
People in poverty commit more crimes because of the way society is structured, and the history of systematic racism only makes it worse for POC. Their communities, social programs, and education, are usually severely underfunded. They're more likely to not be able to afford college tuition. They often have a tough enough time just putting food on the table, let alone paying for education. If you have no education, it's increasingly difficult to get a job in today's society. If you can't get a job, how else do you put food on the table? If they do have a job, they work 50+ hours a week just to pay rent and put food on the table.
