Why are you telling us about the armed Capitol police? They were armed for a BLM protest but were invisible for most of the MAGA riot.

"Summer of Love"
Our own VP putting the call out for bail money for the rioters.
Our own VP telling them they should continue.
Democrat governors and mayors allowing the rioters to run rampant.
Democrat DA's refusing to charge many of the rioters.
Many in the dem base, at least on here, ignoring or backing the violence. Go back and read the threads about the riots.

The list goes on..........

All you are doing is proving you are completely out of touch with the truth.

Unlike the MAGA GOP/Trump Republican Party and Trumpism's denial toward the shocking Capitol insurrection, Democratic Party leaders, Social Justice leaders and BLM organizers condemned the looting, vandalism and destruction that occurred in some cities following the massive and mostly peaceful demonstrations for equal justice under the law. The vast majority of the demonstrations ended peacefully and those that resulted in afterhours clashes and ugly confrontations with police were in local communities and neighborhoods and were indeed investigated and examined by the police---often assisted by the FBI--- and with District Attorneys prosecuting and convicting hundreds and hundreds of people for their criminal actions. To claim otherwise--- as many posters here do--- is false and absurd what-about-ism to provide cover and distraction for their shocking lack of patriotism and concern for democracy in these United States of America.

Myriad stark differences have been pointed out between the protests for racial justice and the insurrection stoked by unfounded claims of a stolen presidential election. This dishonest what-about-ism, denial and false equivalency is absolutely dangerous and poses a huge threat to the United States of America. This turning a blind eye toward January 6, in service of The Big Lie and a sore loser, has eroded our very foundational principles and is sickening to real patriots.

It cannot be stated often enough: The world witnessed a failed coup d'état on January 6. Donald Trump's seditious mob used brownshirt-style violence to prevent Congress from certifying the results of a free and fair election. This attack on our very democratic process and the resulting gaping wound to our nation's soul, and the tattering of democracy itself cannot be healed or put behind us until there is a full accounting of what led up to it, what occurred during it and what happened afterwards.

People who are not appalled by what happened that day have given up on democracy and our sacred nation.
The only coup that was actually attempted, in trying to unseat a duly elected president, was the failed Russia coup.

I wonder why that was?
Did Pelosi and other democrats want things to happen the way they did? Seems likely.

No, you clearly own that: "Your frequent comments denying the armed violence, and your redundant posts whitewashing and downplaying the ferocious and brutal 4+ hours long battle for democracy on January 6, are in direct conflict with the sworn testimony of the Capitol Police and the D.C. Police. Your statements absolutely contradict those who bravely, heroically and successfully defended the United States of America from the traitorous mob."

Tragically what we have here is another poster who not only has abandoned American democracy but mocks it and the heroic defenders of the United States.

Your opinion. Half the country disagrees with you and are aware of democrats’ coup attempt. Denying it doesn’t change the truth.
