| You can't rally. We can riot. The staggering hypocrisy of the Democrats over COVID-19 |
| 2020-06-15 |
| [Spectator] Are you ready for the second blame wave? As the country braces itself for an inevitable repeat surge in COVID-19 infections, we’re told red-state governors ’opened too soon’. The next outbreak, we can be sure, will be something to do with the fact the President decided to resume his political rallies, approximately two weeks from now. What nobody says is that individual or social behavior is the cause. It can’t possibly be the thousands of people closely together marching down city streets yelling and chanting, some with masks, some not. The guidelines fell completely by the wayside for the Democrats and much of network cable news. In the middle of May, DC Mayor Muriel Bowser extended her lockdown order through to the June 8. Two days prior to her own lockdown order was to be reviewed, on June 6, she encouraged mass gatherings of protests, in a tweet saying ’Let’s all meet here soon #BlackLivesMatter’, with a photo showing off her big block yellow letters painted down a DC street. In a press release about a possible spike in coronavirus cases in her city, after two weeks of protests she encouraged herself, Bowser announced that ’DC Health has confirmed that a new peak was detected in the data, resetting the Districts Phase One count to nine days of sustained decrease.’ |

| #9 #4 -- The power of a bullet is indisputable. #8 -- As long as we do nothing, they'll continue. That's why the only solution is to break as many heads as necessary, and pour in some intelligence. It probably won't take, but it's worth a try. |

| #8 It's always the same with the Left: their violence is free speech - our free speech is violence. |

| #7 If the virus really is that deadly why wouldn't they want big Trump rallies (with lots of old people) - lots of Trump voters would get sick and die and switch to being Biden voters. |

| #6 In fact I hope they are screening ushers and ticket takers and such carefully. |

| #5 I’m guessing the left is looking for volunteers to get sick and go to Trump events right now. |

| #4 There is no hypocrisy in power. Power is self rationalized and self justified. |

| #3 I'll say again - you need a massive amount of prolonged unfairness and harassment of the anti-nationalists in America. That means KGBing those Dem bastards, framing, incarcerating, humiliating and offing some of them. If tyranny is going to be the normal, better a tyranny of the majority leadership. Being ruled by a guerilla government of thugs and unions is not acceptable. |

| #1 It's not hypocrisy. It's the entirely predictable exercise of power. They're rubbing everyone's face in how they can do what they want and you can't. To show you who's boss...and for the laughs. |
