Yeah there's not going to be as many people who can protest now that the lockdown is over 😥

I work full-time and would be out of work before 4.
Monday I'll be working 6-3 (9 hours). Anyone who works 7-3 (8 hours) or 8-4 (8 hours) could do it too. I imagine someone working part-time could also easily make that schedule.
Arguably, if the protest lasted longer than 1 hour, someone working 9-5 could still show up.

Alright, I'm curious. I'll bite.
How is this the dumbest comment you have ever read? The OP and a few others have wrongfully suggested only unemployed individuals could possibly protest. I word full-time from home and I know many people who have jobs, but they still manage to protest. So how is that dumb?
Or is it, simply, that you disagree with the protest? And if so, why?

Did this dude just say he works full time from home? You can't be serious buddy. No shit you have the time to protest. 95% of the work force does not work from home. And most don't have 9-5 office jobs.

Lol then don't. Like nobody is forcing you. Show support or don't.

8-9 hour days is not work? You make time for the things that are important to you. For some people, protesting for justice reform is important.

Yes and for some providing for their families matters as well.

And the last woman I was dating, would have been protesting right alongside me. You can have a committed relationship and still protest. Another woman, I know, would have even thought of it as a bonding experience to do together in a group activity.

Ok great. I’m happy for you. They were fired, arrested and I think they’re awaiting their prosecution. What else can be done? Let the justice system do it’s job. Otherwise go protest. Just don’t get on people who aren’t going out there

I think people want to protest the idea of justice reform.
This time, in this one instance, it seems like the justice system is working. But there have been reports of many people being abused by the people and system they rely upon. Police departments using body cameras is still a fairly new concept. Until not so long ago, it was only through 3rd party smartphone videos that the public could even prove these things happen.
There is nothing wrong with wanting better for society in general, especially when addressing how our justice system and law enforcement fit in that society.

A 4pm protest on a Monday is simply terrible organization.
