Nah, it wasn't just one. It was him, the three cops he was with, every officer in the chain of command above him, the District Attorney, the mayor..... There were many people who had the power to change the story before it reached rioting.
We could instead blame the chain that put the counterfeit 20 in George Floyd's hand that day. But at it's simplest, it was that knee on that throat that set everything off.
It depends on the workplace. Some will require the full 14 days quarantine before work can continue, even with a negative, as a "precautionary". Some will allow someone back as long as they are negative. My wife was told to go back to work immediately once hers came back negative because their requirements were testing negative, four days with no symptoms, and extra precautions during work hours. At least here in Texas they seem to leave it up to the companies to decide how they protect themselves.
They did, but then Trump said he was speaking at the event, and no one dared contradict him, so they called the cadets back to New York to attend.I thought they canceled that!
Well isn't that conveeeeeeenient.
Woah, why would more than one person go?
On our last grocery trip, Cranky (who is wearing a mask) passed by a mother and daughter (who are not wearing masks) and mumbled at them under his breath:
We usually buy two carts' worth at a time?
Two words: American egocentrism. America has the reputation as the quintessential place for the "Fuck you, got mine" attitude.
I'm not sure if you've noticed, but hurting other people for personal gain is something 'Merica does best!
Hence why I said it's America's reputation and how the rest of the world views it. There are many good people that live in the U.S. Many of whom are right here on this forum. But good lord, there are so many people within America that have that "fuck you, got mine" attitude. I encountered some myself when I briefly lived in the states a few years ago. That's not to say I've encountered people like that in Canada, either. My brother-in-law is like that. It's more a general cultural thing in the US, though.
The proper phraseology is "Some, I'm sure, are good people.
At this point I remain in the country because there's many people I really like here, and a bunch of inertia (e.g. only about 3 years before I'm SS-eligible for life). If I had a one-way button that moved all my possessions back home, and I could retain the ability to visit (via e.g. flights and a guaranteed 90-day/year visitor status), I'd press it.
