The on line suppliers are so back logged people won't be able to get their seeds until May. I can see why people are anxious to get them.

What will I do without my petunia seeds!?!?! This tyranny cannot stand!!!

Isn’t Detroit a huge community gardening city?

Have arrangements been made for places where community gardens are an essential bulwark to food insecurity?

I’m sorry am I getting too nuanced for you guys? Should I just shut up and make fun off white people?

They are so dumb with their dumb faces and their crocs.

Vegetable and fruit seeds, however, should absolutely be sold. If they have them, they should probably move those to a display near the groceries as an option.

Can't buy non-essential items. The whine is Lawn and Garden is non-essential. Of course, Meijer can move their seed display into the aisle near grocery and the whole "issue" is fixed....(also amazon, etc. will deliver seeds.)

She doesn't want people window shopping for electronics or clothes or whatever when they should be home.

Someone else brought this up, but I do find this telling no one flipped out about the government poisoning a generation of (black) kids in Flint, but slightly inconvenience some white people to help save their own lives... watch the idiot fireworks.

Wait, what? No one flipped out about the water crisis in Flint? I know you were going for hyperbole, but I mean that was one of the biggest news stories in the nation for quite a while.

There will be freezing temperatures for several more weeks. It’s literally snowing right now.

Yeah, crazy thing is we went to probably 8 of the best seed gardening supplier sites and they all said the same thing. Didn't even think to go to Amazon and bam right there they are showing them. I guess I made the false assumption if the actual gardening sites didn't have them that Amazon wouldn't. Lesson is never underestimate the power of Amazon.

I’m guessing you’re not a gardener, Travis. Most people start seeds inside prior to planting. Which would be now or actually a couple weeks ago.

No dude think from a perspective other than your own. Everyone should use all the resources you have at home as a college educated (presumably) white collar worker. Just stay on the computer and cruise Netflix with your high speed internet

If you're only allowing a limited # of people in the store at one time, you don't want them browsing the seed aisle & you don't want to have to staff the seed aisle.

Get your necessities and get the fuck out.

It's really not that complicated if you take a few seconds to think about it from a perspective other than your own.

White people are the ones who will drive to Lansing to protest not being able to buy seeds to grow their gardens.

Small sample size and those people are ridiculous. If you think it is just white people (in general, not just this protest), you are being naive.

No, I don't think only white people buy & plant seeds. What I'm saying is white people are the ones who make a big stink over not being able to buy seeds. If the previous governor had done the exact same thing I guarantee to you there would be no "protest" today.

but, yes.. let's get upset at people who mock white people wanting to buy packets of seeds.

See the part in bold. I'm not talking about seeds. The protest is not about seeds (https://www.fox2detroit.com/news/upset-with-gov-whitmer-protesters-bring-lansing-to-a-halt-during-operation-gridlock), they don't like the rules in general. Some are just dumb enough to complain about not being able to buy flowers on camera.

These people are idiots. This group happens to be white. But there is plenty of diversity in the pool of people that don't like the restrictions.
