Thousands of stickers at the Tulsa rally removed
 
The stickers that were removed were stickers promoting social distancing. I kid you not. Just saw this on the news. I won't say who ordered those stickers to be removed.

What I want to know is WHY???? Coronavirus numbers are spiking in America and not promoting social distancing is sending the wrong message to Americans. Someone, please explain this rationale to me.

And this is an issue? Kind of like removing no parking posters on a street that were placed there for a parade. After the parade, they are removed.

The stickers were removed BEFORE the rally. What does that tell you?

You can read a detailed (but incomplete) explanation of events here, including a short video capture of someone taking the stickers off the seats prior to the rally.

It simply defines who or what is the priority.

It was done so that the crowds could be encouraged to cluster together (which they did).

Again, it simply defines the priorities.

Let's just skip the excuses. No rallies should be held during a pandemic. It's completely irresponsible to do so.

It’s past time that People take personal responsibility for themselves. They should not need stickers. What is needed is common sense.

Pamelah 06-28-2020 06:01 AM

Perhaps they feared there wouldn’t be as many people as originally thought and attendees smooshed together looks like more than sitting in every third seat? Then again, making rational sense would be unique wouldn’t it?

3 guesses, the first 2 don't count.

Who cares? You need a sticker to tell you to social distance?

I believe they were removed BEFORE the rally started. Issue.

Life is all about choices, some good, some not so good, but they still remain OUR choice.

Why do so many want to blame someone else for what happens to them? We all know the virus is out there, if your not staying locked down that is YOUR CHOICE and if you get it, your fault. Or should you blame a sticker?
