    Proud of him, and glad he did it. But I really hope he doesn't get hurt (not that i want anyone else to get hurt).

    Ya as I've been saying Covid didn't go anywhere. But regardless, I'm happy to see the mask. And really happy he's protesting like a lot of other NBAers have in their cities. Dame is a real one.

    That said, not the kind of march I was hoping for him to be part of in downtown Portland in June. :(

    Who would be in support of that atrocity? I have clients on both sides and to a person, every single one of them was mortified by what happened. As with that cop, there are a few bad apples in almost every vein of life that ruins it for the rest. Equality for all, means those you may agree or disagree with.

    I know, don't take the bait and say anything in defense of the guy, but the President's initial reaction (as reported by the AP):

    President Donald Trump called the death of George Floyd “a grave tragedy.”

    “It should never have happened,” Trump said Saturday, after Floyd’s death in Minneapolis. “It has filled Americans all over the country with horror, anger, and grief.”

    And the FBI is investigating it as a civil rights violation. You can be all over the guy for many things, but it's not like he was wishy-washy on the matter. The response to the rioting is another matter.

    Also, since we're trying to make this about parties - important to remember this happened in Minneapolis, Minnesota. A city with a Democrat run city council, Democrat Mayor, Democrat State AG, Democrat Governor, and (2) Democrat Senators. So not so much left and right and more white and black.

    383,000 deaths worldwide and counting, 108,000 here in the United States alone. And it's just beginning.

    Yeah, that's a nothingburger alright.

    bracing myself for the second wave. We were planning on potentially returning to the office in a few weeks. Really don't see that happening anytime soon
