It's only been 4 months since Trump was tried for impeachment. 5 months to go to election. - Max Jun 1, 17:56
They trotted out lies in response ... CRB is fake. Mental health alerts were never put in place. - colin Jun 1, 17:53 14
- This is why I'm not hopeful. Baltimore had a Dem mayor when Freddie Gray was killed. A black man was president when Trayvon et al were killed. - Max Jun 1, 18:03
- Can you tell I'm angry? -- nm - colin Jun 1, 17:53 12
  - We all should be, my friend. But I'm proud of you for going to an event. -- nm - David Jun 1, 17:58 11
    - I've been torn. I'd like to go to one of the daytime peaceful events, but COVID. -- nm - ty97 Jun 1, 18:00 10
      - I hear you. If Kim or I got COVID, it would be alarming given our asthma and medical histories. -- nm - David Jun 1, 18:04 4

        I have a running thing right now where if Joe asks for money, I send some. - David Jun 1, 18:23
        
        I'm a smoker, I'm fat, I'm coughcough years old - ty97 Jun 1, 18:15 1
        
        ooh, ask them for a sleep study -- nm - Max Jun 1, 18:16
      - We felt it was worth risk. We've been safe, we're not a threat, only risk is on us. -- nm - colin Jun 1, 18:02 2
        
        Yeah, it's a calculated risk one can take (see back boards, I'm trying to go to see my elderly parents so....not taking chances) -- nm - ty97 Jun 1, 18:03 1
        
        If you can't go out, give money. It helps. Almost 300 arrested here last night. -- nm - colin Jun 1, 18:07
      - I believe the point is that there kind of aren’t any daytime peaceful events because the police are making them non-peaceful even during the day. -- nm - Qale Jun 1, 18:01 1
        
        Perhaps it's getting to that point, but the daytime stuff here has previously been peaceful from what I've seen (not sure about today) -- nm - ty97 Jun 1, 18:02
