There are always going to be people who don't care enough about the lives of others to do anything and who will get violent, abusive and disgusting over it, but I feel like that's only a minority of people in most countries. I think the US can and will overcome this, but I do worry what will happen if July 4th carries on as normal. Small sacrifices have big rewards.

I don't think the "minority" of people that don't care in the US, I think it's a solid half if not majority. It really doesn't have much to do about violence, but that's just icing on the cake in this disaster. It's just what I have seen with my two eyes (at a distance).

It's just what I have seen with my two eyes (at a distance).It would definitely be wrong for me as a foreigner to argue with someone who's right there on the ground experiencing it, but I want to believe that the majority of people do care. I also do believe the US will come through this as it's a strong country with a long history of overcoming problems. But for the time being, seriously, stay safe everyone.
I forgot to mention in my post that there are a lot protests at the moment. People against social distancing, racism (because of George Floyd), farmers. Some are very peaceful with masks and some are making a mess.Even though we have freedom of speech it already happened a couple of times a protest was not allowed to set place because a lot of people are expected and with social distancing safety was not guaranteed. It pisses people off and play the constitution card.
