Leftists FIREBOMBED occupied ICE detention facilities and federal court house = no shot fire
Leftists invaded Supreme Court house during Kavanuagh hearing = no shot fire


Rightist invaded capitol building = open fire at will for......trespassing, and because of that Hollywood action movie White House Down starring Channing Tatum!!!!!
None of that was done at the express of a sitting US president. None of your list was an attempt to overthrow the government, disrupt certification of a lawful election. Threats to kill our elected officials. Attacking the very essence of democracy. Domestic terror orchestrated by Trump

I don't care if the Pope or Jesus H Christ told Ashli Barrett to trespass in a restricted area.

I was talking about use of force against a trespasser VS use of force against people who FIREBOMBED occupied federal building

The mob at the capital and any one using a fire bomb anywhere shouldn’t be surprised by any show of force against them.

Bombs were found, a cop died defending the capital.

But none of that matters....because...what about the left (trademarked & copyrighted since it's the most reasonable thing to bring up during any topic of discussion)????

Pretty good summary.
Given the US suffered a massive terrorist atrocity only twenty years ago, you would have thought they would have had proper security and barriers like most sensible countries, to stop individuals gaining access in the first place.

If the security is this lax, then I am surprised a terrorist group hasn't targeted Congress already.

The individual who was shot was no more a loony than those protesting last year who broke in, or those who have devastated US cities and helped make the US an embarrassment on the world stage.

Many cities such as Portland are going to take decades to recover, as who wants to visit such places or invest in them.

The violence on both sides has to stop, however to suddenly blame what happened the other day and to ignore the violence of the last year is equally wrong.

I'll wait.
This. Is. Not. A. Competition.
Stop asking everyone to look up stuff you can look up yourself.
You don’t have to wait, you too can do your own research.
I can think of 2 right now, both shot by rittenhouse.
