The Plague

[Mark Kohut]

Almost none  say all who were and are there.....except, of course, for
the thousands (probably in total less than a hundred thousand I would say
or .003 % maybe)
of white supremacists and other racists---some who came to loot, of course.

Did you watch the huge surges of people protesting for major
change---whcish is happening all over the country?
