Institution as in function or responsibility, not real estate. Do you want to try again?

And you hated all that and wanted all of them to pay dearly, I'm sure.


So by the same transitive property Trump supporters are using to equate the two, you want the neckbeards who stormed the Capitol to pay dearly, right? Or are you saying they're just peaceful protesters and should not be punished, which by the same transitive property means you feel the same about the BLM rioters?


If you're going to equate the two, make your responses to each equal as well.

Well yeah, unlike Trumpers, they would’ve burned the building to ashes.

If Biden lost to Trump in a fair election and these groups stormed the Capitol, it would be condemned as insurrection.

If Trump won his legal battles despite having no evidence because of his loaded Supreme Court and seditious congress members and these groups stormed the Capitol in response, it would be a fight for democracy.

Not that hard to understand.

Perhaps, as some suggest, Antifa did "storm" the Capitol. This man was at the Capitol and states what he overheard:

Perhaps this scenario was the intended message which obviously has been received.

This. They would have been met with extreme force at the gates. Not allowed to enter by the police, then escorted kindly out at the end.

What bunch of complete bullcarp! You WANT that to be true because you think it makes the left hypocritical, but nothing could be farther from the truth that the left would be cheering that on.

Trumpers cannot accept the fact that some of their own fellow Trumpers are criminal thugs, so they have to invent conspiracy theories that place the blame on the other side. What a bunch of cowards!
