Protesting is fine, but we had over a riot a day in 2020, to "protest" Floyd. No businesses would have burned down if all those people did was "protest." So stop trying to make like that's all that happened.
I am 100% against the BLM riots. But what does that have to do with this Trump rioter getting sent to prison? I agree that not enough of the BLM rioters got justice. And the handling of the riots was poorly done. Just the at the Trump riots. But what bring up the BLM riots here> I don't get it.

But lets answer your diversion. Ashli Babbitt killed Ashli Babbitt. If she stayed home or outside of the peoples house she would be alive today. Who made that decision? And if she broke into my house in my state she would suffer the same fate as in the capital building, the peoples house. Seems fair.
If that's how you view it - then George Floyd killed George Floyd - had he not tried to pass a fake $20 bill and ingested Fentynol - than he wouldn't have ever met Chauvin. Again - the left see things differently when it's their own.

Feel free to prove me wrong, but I don't believe anyone in this forum or any other notable Democrat has ever condoned violence, looting, or damaging property. On the contrary, everyone I know agrees that anyone engaged in that behavior should all be locked up.
Humor? Obviously you are joking.

BLM *used* to be all about peaceful protests. I know this for a fact, because members of my family have attended multiple peaceful BLM rallies. There were hundreds of them across the country and only a small number of them turned into riots. I believe most of the rioters are just opportunists using BLM protests as cover. BLM is basically anyone who shows up at their rally.
The founders of blm, who are also the drivers behind the movement, say the complete opposite of your opinion.

You guys like to point to John Sullivan as being BLM, but he was simply inciting violence at BLM rallies exactly the same way he did it on Jan 6. Just an outside agitator. I consider it a grave failure of law enforcement that were not able to arrest more of these infiltrators and rioters.
So your outrage is misplaced. There is no hypocrisy here. Lock up all the rioters. Personally if I were a shop owner in a city plagued by riots, I'd be sitting in my store with a shot gun. I don't care who they are out there. My shop will be the last one they ever rob.
Sullivan had considered himself blm antifa, even his own brother, who knows him far more than you do, claims he is or was blm antifa. Even the leader of one of the antifa cells stated that Sullivan is/was antifa.

If what he'd done warranted being charged and found guilty of "obstructing an official proceeding" and the normal sentence is 8 months, then so be it.

Those who ACTUALLY broke into the Capital should be charged - but those let in by authorities should not unless they did damage. The same should be said for each and every rioter that damaged property, stole or injured a person during any of these riots - but we see the left bailing them out and lib DA dropping charges.
The building is just that a building a representation of Democracy just as the flag is and yet libs think it's fine to burn the flag.
And don't give me what ifs - we've heard it from both sides so you can't sit here and use that against conservatives here when these threads are full of what if from Democrats.

Sorry, not playing your game any more. Your posts without links are trivially ignored.
Lol, you're uncomfortable in playing your own game because you know I'm right, all while you pretend ignorance about what I said in that post.
Nope. You simply never post anything factual, you just make it up as you go. That's why you don't post links.
