Organisers of a Black Lives Matter rally in Sydney say they plan to appeal a court ruling blocking the event.

The court was told on Friday Mr Gibson had threatened to take the matter all the way to the High Court.

Organisers have nevertheless promised to risk arrest and gather outside Town Hall at noon on Tuesday as planned. Mr Gibson's lawyer had argued yelling"Black Lives Matter" in a protest was more important to a democratic society than going to a football match, and thus should also be accommodated in times of pandemic.

Residents in metropolitan Melbourne are subject to stay-at-home orders and can only leave home for essential work, study, exercise or care responsibilities. It is also mandatory to wear masks in public.

The answer is simple: these black people must stop doing things that will get them arrested in the first place, so they can then die outside of a prison cell.

I don't mind them holding a rally, they can hold one every week if they like, but now is not the time.

Who's paying 💰? Australian Communist Party?

why don't you all pissoff home

Are they idiots?

Cheese doesn't matter

Their racist segregation march will have to wait. At least wait until the workers get back to work, as its their taxes paying for all this rubbish !

Whining about their right to protest but all they’re actually doing is showing their complete lack of giving a fuck about the rest of society. Selfish, anarchistic & arrogant with an ‘I’m alright jack” attitude. They demand the right to protest - we demand the right to be safe!

Overpaid NSW chief has declared he wont listen to the courts anyway. Is he planning on staging a coup? Asking for a few million friends...

Why don't these idiot's just go and spend some time in the communities helping educate the black kids. Reading, writing, math, computers. The protesters are just out there for themselves not the black kids.

Oh, no Burn Loot Murder parade.

I wonder who’s giving them all this money? No problem paying for anything . Hmmm.

Stop braking the law and you won’t be in custody, simple .... I’ve never been in “custody “...

Do not bring American culture to Australia. BLMTerrorist BlackLivesMattters BLM

Didn’t see just determination last year or years before in regards to this movement. No. This is about exploiting nations in their time of weakness. Hold protest organisers financially and legally liable for any damage, and police resources used. Not tax payers.

Deaths in custody is far lower than the normal death rate, do your research.

If anyone knows,this guy does

I think this demonstrates the reason why aborigines are over represented in our jails. They simply refuse to abide by the laws and create trouble. Things are very good for them here and get many advantages white Australians don't receive.

Has the judge said only this one ie next Saturday BLM or all protests?

But the sport rolls on.. Sport sport sport sport!

Stop this circus now AllLivesMattter

these protesters are raving and selfish lunatics, who dont realise or otherwise, putting all of us at risk. Wonder how many of these protesters are genuine?

These BLM protestors are nothing more than common garden variety pests. Get your arses out to the outback and contribute to indigenous communities in a proactive way. Soft as diarrhoea the lot of them.

People may actually support their cause if they're not complete nitwits...

Ignorant selfish fool.

Given the added risk to many indigenous people due to preexisting conditions, I’d be very nervous for this to take place. Yes more needs to be done but we don’t prove it by allowing this virus to spread into the community.

Stay the fuck home. We just had 10 people die in Victoria in the last 24 hours. Do NSW want that to be them? Stay home! Save lives! COVIDIOTS stayhomesavelifes COVIDー19

Scam organization. A front.

Appeal against having a mass gathering in the middle of a pandemic. Seriously?

Fighting for rights of black but ignoring public health. You won’t get too much support as you get before.

ScottMorrisonMP please direct department to cease benefits for anyone who attends. This will stop it

stop sexual abuse of women and girls in Indigenous communities

Patience is a virtue during a viral pandemic. If you support BLM, support waiting. Besides the inherent dangers of holding a rally right now, less people are going to listen to what's being said while they are focused on COVID. BLM is too important to f up by being impatient.

Blm are terrorists .

They're going to argue over death for death

If it's ok to have a mass gathering protest then it's ok for everyone to go about life as normal

And it won't spread the virus because we all know that the virus is magic and knows our political opinions.

Let these people die

Yes BLM needs to appeal this asap.

Idiocy How to lose support for the cause

They can fuck off.....now is not the time...
