Due to riots after George Floyd’s death on May 25, 2020, our state governor has issued a statewide curfew during night from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. It will start today May 31st and end on June 8th.
I understand people’s anger about racism, but I don’t understand some of unnecessary actions such as burning police stations and breaking stores’ glass windows of shopping mall. Some people joined this movement just to express their stress and anger. Some of their stress and anger might come from Covid-19.
I personally don’t like to fight with radical protest activities. It might include to hurt innocent citizens who just happen to be there. The tax payers like us will need to pay for the repair of the public buildings that the activists burned. I hope people will find other peaceful ways to collect wrong traditions.
The local retail stores such as Walmart closes at 5 pm due to the statewide curfew order for this one week. I doubt all the stores will cover the workers’ pay for the missing working hours. I feel sorry for the workers who fully depend on the work hours. I hope everything will get back to normal soon so that we can fully enjoy our life as we used to.
