Looks like they're doing a good job of staying apart. I was prepared to cringe, but was relieved to see all the spacing between protestors. Good job, Chicago! I really, really miss you!

I wonder whether the organizers didn't paint spots on the ground, because the consistency of the distancing is amazing.

Grateful to them, they are showing people how to protest and do rallies.

Not the lives of their families though.

Not the hospitals which can become easily overwhelmed.

Wear a mask, stay apart 2m. Be smart about this.

I wonder how many are wearing masks...I wonder how many have the virus and don’t know it yet. While protesting is important, all it takes is one carrier to spread it to many others and many will die.
