    Why don’t they be more realistic and do a protest at why we havnt got meaningful test procedures that should have gone with the lockdown.

    If they’re thick enough to congregate when there’s a deadly virus about they deserve to be dead.

    I don't think he wishes them dead, but obviously thinks a great deal more about the majority of people who are observing the lockdown and would be upset if one of them caught it. I take it as a figure of speech, but I can see how it could be misconstrued. That's why I didn't comment about that vile female involved in the mugging.

    Does that go for the elderly who refused to isolate in march? Or the vulnerable who are currently queuing at Tesco?

    People attending an 'anti-lockdown mass gathering' is a bit different to vulnerable people trying to social distance whilst buying food so they don't starve to death. I'm not saying they 'deserve to be dead' but you simply can't compare the two.

    Those protesting clearly don't mind if their relatives, friends, other people and other people's relatives catch the virus and die so not sure what your point is.

    Do the people buying non essential items forcing people to work in manufacturing deserve to die?
    So people who walk the wrong way round supermarkets with arrows deserve to die?
    Maybe you could do a list. What level of karmic justice someone deserves based on their actions.

    Or they are ill informed and ignorant of the dangers. Otherwise sensible people are capable of holding some very strange views and beliefs.
    If they weren't we wouldn't have religions, conspiracy theorists, anti vaxxers, flat earthers ect

    How often do you NEED to go shopping really? I've been twice in what 8? weeks. And I've used my brains and gone at quiet times too instead of queuing with the hordes

    I've not been out shopping at all.
    Then again, the last time I went shopping was 2002, I think!:D

    Quite right. I wouldn't dream of attending one either but I do think the discussion and alternatives do need to be mentioned properly and answered properly and I can fully understand why some are so frustrated that they intend to protest because as is seen on here if you even dare to suggest something else you are practically accused of being a murderer.

    If he has only been shopping twice, then that probably explains the shortages of toilet rolls, pasta and flour. Are SuperTyke towers full of them? :)
