Here's a picture of the "Pro-Trump patriot" that beat a cop with a hockey stick and is facing MULTIPLE felony charges:

Given your rhetoric, I seriously doubt you are a neutral party.

Anyway, his dad outed him.
“He was raised better,” Joseph Foy replied, which led the FBI to believe he was the man’s father.

Dude where have you been MAGA turned on law enforcement about 4-5 weeks ago because of their complicity in unconstitutional enforcement of COVID edicts by tyrannical local politicians. It was a 180 it happened suddenly but the sentiment was "F*** it, they don't have our back so go ahead and defund the police they are part of the problem we don't care anymore"

I hold it in more esteem. Public citizens losing their livelihood vs. politicians getting scared of people in horned hats.

I notice that difference. Conservatives hold the Constitution and people's rights sacred. Liberals hold buildings and politicians sacred. (except of course when leftists overrun the buildings or burn them)

The guy with the zip tie handcuffs doesn't concern me. He was unarmed and alone. He was just kind of a weird flake. Now if he had come with a group of similar people, that would be of some concern. But he clearly had no plan. He was just roaming around.

It's not "whataboutism" it's "standard-seeking".

What is the consensus acceptable level of protest, discomfort, and violence that we must apply to all people and groups equally?

Just keep moving the goal posts, it still doesn’t make any sense.

Well if you were a conservative or a liberal not afflicted by TDS, you might have the mental capacity to understand.

You don't get to say what people can or can't say.
Trump supporters roundly condemned the idiots that broke into the Capitol.

Conservatives hold the Constitution and people's rights sacred as long as the people are white, and the Constitution isn't used to make it as easy for all people of color to vote as it is for whites. They also aren't real big on people of color being armed, walking through the "conservative" neighborhoods, or acting "uppity". Conservatives also hate gays, non-Christians, and anyone who isn't like them.
