^^^ The alarming truth about leftists in a nutshell: comparing “rednecks” expressing anger and frustration over an election, and killing nobody in the process, to subhumans celebrating that 19 Islamic terrorists murdered 3,000 Americans.

And by the way, did you disavow the ignorant leftists when you saw them, week after week, month after month, burning and looting and assaulting, and yes....MURDERING Americans all summer?

So, frustration over an election makes it ok to storm the Capitol building? They didn't kill anybody so it's ok to hurt over 100 police officers, crap on the floor and steal computers.

What's ok for frustration over overzealous cops killing unarmed but out of control citizens. Tell us how that frustration can play out.

My quarrel with BLM protest is that they didn't monitor their ranks and shut that violence down. Had the organizers really been after peaceful protest they would have stopped any of that burning and looting down before it started. And anybody who was really protesting police tactics would have never done any it.

IMO, there may have been organized people in both groups taking advantage. Looks like the organizers of the violence in the Capitol building were much better at it.

You would think Americans would take the Middle East as an example of what happens when you intertwine Religion and Government. Unfortunately it seems we still have not learned that lesson.

Speaking of moral compasses, why do you suppose the USA continued even talking with Saudi Arabia considering who funded 9-11?

The use of the word "redneck" to describe most of the people who stormed the Capitol is accurate. They're people that you likely wouldn't have anything to do with, Rachel, so please stop defending them.

5 Israelis who seemed happy about it, vs an entire community of Palestinians celebrating in the streets?

If I looked, I could probably find 5 Australians that were happy about it too, doesn't mean I think that is the overwhelming sentiment of Australia.

We can whataboutism all day if we want. The world is full of stuff. Leftist work toward what I consider the detriment of our country, that's why I rag on them and their moral compass is most certainly off if you pay any attention.. The USA snuggles up to various countries for what I would say probably has some strategic benefits. Things probably not readily apparent to the general public. Not that im automatically approving of.

In the relief packages passed we give money to Pakistan for women's ballets or some such nonsense.

Do you feel better now, I ripped on the country some.
