It doesn't matter if they would have moved the barrier, when you have a crowd of 50k angry people they will push their way through regardless, no matter what color they are. The police were overpowered and they knew it, just like they were in Minneapolis.

The statement was correct and until we face reality of it we will continue to stay divided. Time to move on and face reality of ALL Americans not just your own.

The United States is a great country but it has never been perfect nor equally fair to all, we must continue its history of making it better and more equal for all. This has been the strength and value of the USA for over 200 years, its ability to continue to improve itself.

YOU think it was correct, as do many others, however I do not, as do many others.

So, we have a problem here.

There's a spot on Peachtree St NW that has a lovely lighthouse and calm waves that gives off a cool ocean breeze that you'll enjoy during those Atlanta summers. Okay, Washington DC is the most secure spot in this country, it would have been nothing to have dispatched crowd control units there before the crazyness happened. Lol, "I know, we'll just let them through. What's the worse that could happen?"

Exactly. 50k Blm or naacp protesters would have been met with equal or greater force with snipers in the distance but they didn't know the Charlottesville crowd wasn't going to turn-up?

Nobody came close to breaching the fence. If they had, they would have been greeted with the most vicious dogs, and most ominous weapons, I have ever seen.”

President Trump in a May 30 tweet about a Black Lives Matter demonstration in D.C.





We love you, you’re very special. ... I know how you feel, but go home, and go in peace.”

l



yeah Biden's statements were racist


We don't have to assume the difference, we have the proof.

Trump gassed protesters for his photo op on the way to a church.

But here are about a dozen of different stories WITH pictures.

Trump didn't even deploy the national guard until almost forced by his staff. He would have murdered every black person who even thought to break into the capital. get real

Trump poured gasoline all over the capitol and lit a match. But yeah, let's talk about Biden being "divisive."

This is lame, OP. Try harder.

Biden saying the response would have been different if it had been Black Lives Matter is just pouring fuel on the fire and it is raciest. Many cities in America experienced many days of violence, vandalism and looting by Black Lives Matter. Biden's statement just promoted more division.

The media and Biden downplayed the violence, vandalism, and looting which went on for days and even weeks and months in may cities in the United States at the hands of Black Lives Matter. That makes his recent statement racist.

Joe Biden is going to unite us? He is already denying the massive BLM riots and violence that took place
I guess he is saying that the Capitol police are racists because they would have treated BLM protesters differently because of the color of their skin?

Way to fan those racial flames.

"Hey! Blacks should be able to riot just as well as whites! Come on, man!"
