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.

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.

They need to put one way signs at eye level though.  Not on the floor in blue tape.

There's blue tape everywhere. Outside the store to keep you 6ft apart waiting to get in. At registers to keep you 6 ft apart waiting to cash out. But it's the one way arrows that are so difficult to see, understand, and obey?

Apparently the Rutgers campus is closed until mid-August, too.

I don’t think Boston U. has a campus at Rutgers, Turtleneck.

Hundreds of vehicles of all types are blocking the streets around the state capital putting a gridlock to everything in the area.

According to photographs posted on social media and other reports, at least one ambulance was brought to a stop in traffic on Grand Avenue, close to a nearby Lansing hospital. The traffic jam extended east on Michigan Avenue from the Capitol to beyond Pennsylvania Avenue, with idling cars lined up in front of a Sparrow Health System hospital.

John Foren, a spokesman for Sparrow Health Systems, said there had been no issues with ambulances being unable to access the hospital entrances.

“So far they have not disrupted things, as far as I’ve been told," Foren said early Wednesday afternoon, referencing entrances to the hospital on Michigan.

However, there were concerns about ambulances being tied up or potentially delayed on their way to the hospital, he said.

Traffic began to slowly flow again about 1:30 p.m., though tie-ups continued in spots, and many vehicles were still headed in the direction of the Capitol.

Ambulances, while maybe not blocked, have been slowed significantly. Staff trying to get to work can't get close. Those who are done with their shifts can't get out of the parking lot.
