[Margaret Pilkington]

The thing about all these protesters is that they are echoes...not voices.
They see someone else's opinion on social media and echo it...because it is to hard to think for themselves.
It is a 'herd' instinct of the worst kind.
It is a 'monkey see, monkey do' approach....and it is compounded by celebrities(or those who feel they are celebs). So if they are doing it it must be the right thing to do.
Except the likes of the black actor John Boyega(whose foul mouthed rant was a rallying call) is ironic and hypocritical...because although he is black...he is rich and privileged.
So he is shouting from a place that is nowhere near the man who was killed.

The man who was killed was doing something that he should not have been doing....something criminal....that does not mean he should have met such a violent end at the hands of a police man.
Had he not been doing what he was doing he would still be alive.

Now that may sound cruel, but it is factual.
The man is currently being made into a martyr because of what happened.

This cannot be right.
Nor is it right that people in this country who were supposed to be protesting 'peacefully' were injured as a result of that protest.
Peacefully means that it is OK to throw a bicycle at a policewoman on a horse, does it?
And as far as the rules of social distancing go....there were hundreds of thousands who flouted that rule....the same people who were outraged at a man travelling, cocooned in a car, to organise care for his child.
Well done you surly mob.
