Tulsa Police Arrest Rally Attendee Shiela Buck For Wearing 'I Can't Breathe' Shirt
Sheila Buck had tickets for the rally tonight, and like thousands of others, had arrived hours ahead of time to get in.
Unlike the other knuckle-draggers just dying to inhale those COVID-filled MAGA-hate respiratory droplets, Ms. Buck sat quietly on the ground wearing an "I Can't Breathe" shirt.
She wasn't blocking anyone's pathway for walking or driving, nor was she armed or dangerous.
Just sitting there crosslegged, masked, and minding her own business when a Trump employee approached, then police, all of whom told her she had to leave.
The back and forth lasted at least fifteen minutes, much of which was caught by news cameras, and ultimately ended in the police forcibly removing Ms. Buck and placing her under arrest and into a squad car, driving off with her just as soon as the door was closed.
This might not go over so well with the fans.
Six Trump campaign staffers working on Tulsa rally test positive for coronavirus
Or maybe it won't matter.
They're way too stupid to realize they're about to walk into a room full of virus, or to care if they do.
Stuff twenty thousand people from all over the country into an arena and the question isn't whether anyone is infected, it's how many are infected.
And these are twenty thousand people who clearly make of point of not taking precautions at all, eh?
Six staffers working on President Donald Trump's rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, have tested positive for coronavirus, the Trump campaign said Saturday.
Just hours before the President is expected to arrive in the state, Trump campaign communications director Tim Murtaugh said in a statement that "per safety protocols, campaign staff are tested for COVID-19 before events.
Six members of the advance team tested positive out of hundreds of tests performed, and quarantine procedures were immediately implemented."
"No COVID-positive staffers or anyone in immediate contact will be at today's rally or near attendees and elected officials,"he said.
. . . .
Public health officials both on the ground in Tulsa and within the President's administration have warned about the potential risks.
The Tulsa city-county Health Department Director David Bart said he wished the event would be postponed, and the BOK Center where the rally is taking place has canceled or postponed all other events at the venue through the end of July.
Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease expert and a key member of the President's coronavirus task force, has warned that large-scale indoor events are very risky at this stage of the pandemic.
