If only we had this kind of protest (yes, like the re-open kind), and counter the spoiled-brat riots at the same time.

It would ALL be about freedom.

It’s rather embarrassing when the Germans, of all people, choose to defy illegitimate orders from the “authorities” more than us.

Liberal Montgomery County MD just did a last minute shuttering of PRIVATE schools through Oct. 1 (for starters). These schools have invested the time and expertise in opening safely and with plans corresponding to CDC guidelines.
I’m beginning to see some “I’m as mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore” coming from some unexpected folks. Revolution is beginning to broil it seems.

“Our protests are PRO lockdown essentially”

And isn’t that a sorry state of affairs? Wouldn’t our Founding Fathers be so proud of us? Ugh!

3 July: Tribune, Pakistan: More masks than fish
Covid-19 waste is ending up in our oceans and threatening the marine life’s ecosystem
by Eric Shahzar
However, the pandemic is also harming our planet in a very surprising manner — through a relentless rise in ocean pollution. As the production and demand for face masks and gloves quadrupled, Covid-19 waste is ending up in our oceans and threatening the marine life’s ecosystem, which has already been struggling to cope with pre-existing plastic waste. If no urgent action is taken, we will soon have more face masks than fish in our oceans.

Covid-19 waste has become a new source of pollution as single-use personal protective equipment (PPE) floods our fragile oceans. While conducting a litter exercise in France’s Cote d’Azur coast, Operation Mer Propre, a French non-profit organisation, found numerous gloves, masks and bottles of hand sanitisers in the Mediterranean along with the usual litter of plastic waste. This worrying discovery should be very appalling and embarrassing for the human race.

Covid-19 waste is not only visible in the Mediterranean, but it has become a global problem. The other side of the world faces the same predicament. OceansAsia, marine conservation organisation, discovered a huge number of single-use PPE waste during its plastic pollution research. Millions of masks were found on the Soko Islands, near the coast of Hong Kong.

It takes one face mask 450 years to decompose in water...
Today, we see face masks lying on the streets, stuck on trees and inevitably ending up in our vulnerable oceans...
Today is the time to reset our attitude towards our fragile oceans and consider its environmental impact on human survival...
