Protests Okay, County Fairs Not

Description (Dublin Core)

Americans who were opposed to the closure due to Coronavirus have become more vocal about group gatherings in light of the Black Lives Matters protests. In this post, taken from reddit.com/r/insanepeoplefacebook, the person questions why carnivals aren’t allowed to open, but protests are not being stopped. The Reddit poster sarcastically points out that standing against police brutality is different from going to a county fair.
