While family members of the elderly and ill are working hard to protect them from coming near COVID-19, supporters of President Donald Trump and Fox News viewers are protesting around the country demanding everything reopen so they can go back to their local bars or golf with their friends.

A large crowd of people who were not socially distancing gathered outside of the Colorado capitol in Denver Sunday:

The ignorant signs carried by protesters were reminiscent of the anti-government, tea party protests of 2010, where rally participants held signs reading “get the government out of my Medicare.”

The signs in some areas blasted Dr. Anthony Fauci, the National Health Institute appointed by President Donald Trump, to advise him on the COVID-19 task force. One blasted him by saying he’s not the American president. The person seemed to not understand the elected president was choosing to listen to Fauci.

Another person held up a sign saying “My Body” with a picture of a mask around it and a slash through it. She had a bandana tied around her neck as if she was using it for a mask. Ironically, Trump doesn’t support the philosophy “my body, my choice.”

Who's gonna explain to her that when she voted for Trump she affirmatively voted against having a choice over her own body and that only a man can really hold up this sign and maintain a modicum of accuracy… pic.twitter.com/MY9MgnGWxi — Amee Vanderpool (@girlsreallyrule) April 19, 2020

Another protester proclaimed that social-distancing was equal to communism. Communism is a political theory in which all people share in public resources and properties. One could argue that communism would also mean sharing the virus, so social distancing would be the antithesis of that. Another woman proclaimed, “Give me liberty or give me death.” She might get that wish.

Sure is weird how these definitely homemade and definitely not astroturfed protests signs look the same, just a coincidence i guess pic.twitter.com/L7tBX2IPJn — metal dot txt (@metaltxt) April 19, 2020

If I learned one thing this week, it's that if you're going to violate a stay-at-home order to protest what you call authoritarianism while holding a sign that says "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death," don't stand outside a Baskin Robbins or Fuddruckers with a Big Gulp in one hand pic.twitter.com/C7980ML4ex — Seth Abramson (@SethAbramson) April 19, 2020

Another individual pointed out the flaw in the sign “Be Like Sweden,” where there is a public health system for all citizens along with other policies the right generally refers to as “socialist.” Sweden early on refused to shut down, and until recently, they were fine. Now that their death toll and virus count has increased, they’re pivoting to usher in restrictions.

Right-wingers in the US holding up signs saying "Be Like Sweden!" re #COVID19 might want to consider that Sweden also has universal healthcare, paid sick leave, paid maternity leave, paid parental leave, paid vacations and subsidized daycare and after-school care. #COVID19 pic.twitter.com/8ELpZiB9X8 — Christian Christensen (@ChrChristensen) April 19, 2020

From today's protest in Michigan. The US has 610,000+ confirmed COVID-19 cases & over 27,000 deaths, leading the world in both numbers. Most of those deaths are in the last 3 weeks. That's WITH the strictest lockdown in history. You know you can google this, right?#COVIDIOTS pic.twitter.com/B16fQAT8gA — TheReal Truther (@thereal_truther) April 16, 2020

And then there were the very few counter-protesters to the protesters:
