Thousands ignore social distancing guidelines to hold Black Lives Matter protest at Dublin’s US Embassy




As people are warned to expect a so-called “new normal” that includes stringent social distancing, thousands of people turned out to completely ignore all guidelines and hold a Black Lives Matter protest outside Dublin’s US Embassy.

The protest was over George Floyd’s death after the black man was murdered by a white cop who literally knelt on his neck for close to 9 minutes.

The government have condemned the protest saying that there was other ways to do it. Many on social media are saying that these protestors could push our unwinding back due to their lack of social distancing.
