Poll shows more Americans want Black Lives Matter riots investigated than Jan. 6 Capitol riot — and it's not close

[Aletheia4u]

These riots were a staged events. And that is why no one was arrested. The government can always staged exercise drills all the time.

Ga increase 100% where I live from April 2020 until January 2020...Did you complain then or were you too busy trying to advocate the overthrow of a US election to complain?

The year does not go from April of 2020 to January 2020. It goes to January of 2021. I'm talking about the price of gasoline on a national level, not one city or state, and the price did not increase until the beginning of this year after Dementia took office.

It is very easy to know who is in charge of the Capitol Police and it is the Capitol Police, amazing how that shit works.

It's a shame you don't know how shit works. No, the Capital police have supervisors and authority they need permission from before they can do anything.

Capitol Police chief sought DC National Guard help before riots – but was denied by supervisors: report

The U.S. Capitol Police chief who was in charge during last week’s deadly riots reportedly asked his supervisors ahead of time for permission to request that the D.C. National Guard be on standby if the situation spiraled out of control – but was denied.

I lost my faith in all polls years ago. The reason the MSM tilts Democrat is because they are part of the Democrat party. They skew these polls to try and convince you what to think, not find out what you think on your own. It's pretty much common sense really.

Since Dementia took over, gasoline went up 30% or more. Our southern border is a complete crisis with people infected with covid coming over from 100 different countries by the thousands every week. We have a labor shortage with a 5.9% unemployment rate because people are making more money on the taxpayer than going to work. We have new covid outbreaks in spite of over half the country being vaccinated, and mask mandates are on their way back. And this joker is getting good approval ratings by the public questioned?

As you can see, it makes no sense at all. Our Capital looks like a war zone in Afghanistan, and this clown has not done one positive thing for the country in the six months he's been in office. Today, police departments (including mine) can't find anybody interested in becoming a police officer. Before the Democrats ruined the country, getting to be a cop was a very difficult thing to do. You had to have the education, the physical abilities, and a lot of luck to be chosen as a potential applicant for an opening. So what are the Democrats working on? Getting rid of qualified immunity for police officers. So when all the cop quit and nobody will take the job, how are you going to protect yourself, especially if you live in a commie city or state with strict gun mandates?

Our country is in ruins, and the polls say a majority approve and I'm supposed to believe that?

You're a nut bag. Nobody cares what you believe, because of your nut bag thingie.

 

[BULLDOG]

Not surprised that you couldn't find any.

What does Rasmussen have to do with various media outlets? Media bias.

No idea, but the subject of this thread is what a rasmussen poll says.

 

[Markle]

Ya...the usual double standard. The masses of protesters bashing in windows and doors did not look like they were "let in".

Pelosi does not control the Capitol police, put that lie to rest.

Are you really that detached from the real world or are you that desperate that you have to make such a feeble attempt at deflection?

Nancy Pelosi is third in line to the presidency. Do you honestly expect everyone to believe that if the person, third in succession to the Oval Office, made a phone call to the Sgt. at Arms about security on the day of the coming demonstration, NOTHING would have happened? Really?

Please tell us that you're being facetious otherwise you look like a gullible far left winger. Ooooh, yeah, right.

I think I am far more tethered to reality than you in this topic. Again. Pelosi is NOT in charge of them. It doesn’t matter where she is in the hierarchy. What is more, when the Capitol was under attack, both she and the Senate Majority Leader both called for more help. Guess what? None came. That kind of makes a lie out of your claim she has some kind of secret super power. Pelosi Derangement Syndrome.

President Trump offered to send military to help the Capital police before the 6th. He was declined. The police Captain requested the Guard to be on standby in case things got out of hand. He was denied. Of course it is ultimately Piglosi's responsibility because the buck stops with her. She had to know that the FBI alerted Capital police of the potential violence. If she didn't, she should resign.

This is why she threw Congressmen Banks and Jordan off the the phony committee. They stated in public those are questions they were going to ask and demand answers to. She wanted lapdogs only to conduct this clown show. She doesn't want anybody to know what happened before the attack, what went on behind the scenes. Why do you think they are keeping the cop that shot the female military vet quiet and not allowing 1400 hours of inside and outside recordings to be released to the Congress yet alone the public? They don't want the public to know all the answers to this attack--only from their points of view.

Sometimes, I'm in a unique position to punish it.

You can't punish anything. And hilarious you believe you can.

 

[BlindBoo]

Why not investigate both and investigate how autonomous zones were allowed to form?

Haven't the states and cities investigated the violence and the rioters in their jurisdictions? How did any of those riots threaten the functioning of the Federal Government or the transfer of power to the opposition party. Those rioters were not encouraged by the leader of one of the most powerful political parties in the world to "Fight" because of the election results.

I do not believe they have. In fact they voted to defund the police in some instances. The rioters were attacking federal buildings. They were encouraged by someone as there were limited repercussions.

There was no threat to the transfer of power. Do you really believe that a bunch of yahoos, some dressed like those fake wrestling dudes could have stopped the certification and given the presidency back to Trump? They delayed it for a few hours, that's all.

On the other hand, the insurance agency estimates the damage of last years riots to be between 2 and 4 billion dollars. Talk about encouragement, it was Comme Whorris who tweeted for her followers to send money to a Go Fund Me account to bail out the lowlifes in these cities so they could go back and riot some more.

Yes, the cities fully investigated the people who were caught in the riots, and the people at the Capital the same. But there is no coverup in the city riots like there is with the Capital riot. And in spite of every federal agency investigating all these people at the Capital, the commies still want this investigative congressional committee dog and pony show to try and stretch this out until the 2022 elections, using our poor military people as stage props for their evil agenda.

Trumpybears' MAGAMOB ended the streak of peaceful transfers of power. Trumpybear himself demanded his VP simply make up a new constitutional role for the VP too. Just refuse to accept the certified EC votes from the Democrat won states. Because it didn't work doesn't mean it wasn't a "Hail Mary" pass from the Neo-GOP's Quarterback, Trumpyberra.

Well the Neo-GOP certainly had their chance at a special bi-partisan special counsel, but for some reason want to downplay the event as nothing much more than some rowdy, sight seeing tourist.

Daily Wire ^

As Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi picks members of a select committee to investigate the riots of January 6, a new poll finds that many Americans believe she’s focusing on the wrong riots.

One-third more Americans believe Congress should hold investigative hearings about last summer’s “Black Lives Matter protests that sparked violence” than think lawmakers ought to probe the riot at the capitol on January 6.

In all, two out of three likely U.S. voters say they believe Congress should open an official investigation into “the violent protests” which blazed a trail of arson and looting through major and mid-sized cities nationwide. On the other hand, fewer than half (49%) of Americans support Pelosi’s investigation of the D.C. riot in which rioters protesting the 2020 presidential election results stormed the capitol.

Support for a federal inquiry into the riots that engulfed U.S. cities after the death of George Floyd cut deep across racial and political lines. “Sixty-seven percent (67%) of whites, 64% of black voters, 66% of Hispanics and 62% of other minorities think Congress should investigate the 2020 riots in U.S. cities,” reported Rasmussen Reports. “Seventy-five percent (75%) of Republicans, 60% of Democrats and 63% of voters not affiliated with either major party say Congress should investigate last year’s violent protests.”

The Speaker’s controversial select committee stands on shakier ground. Americans were almost evenly divided on whether members of Congress should launch another examination of the Capitol riot, which Pelosi and her fellow Democrats label an “insurrection”: 42% of respondents told pollsters that the event does not merit a national inquest, with 49% in favor. By contrast, only 21% of Americans said Congress should not investigate the riots surrounding the Black Lives Matter movement.

The riots were the most expensive in U.S. history, costing insurance companies an estimated $1 billion to $2 billion, according to Property Claim Services. That estimate only includes the share of the damage insurance companies cover.

The riots also left hundreds of policemen and civilians injured, and dozens killed, in their wake. “Approximately, 72% of major city law enforcement agencies had officers harmed” during last summer’s riots, according to the Major Cities Chiefs Association. A single police agency “reported that 462 of [its] officers were injured during the protests in [its] jurisdiction.”

Tragically, at least 27 people died during the riots.

“Many elected officials of both parties and at all levels followed up, not by apologizing to their citizens for failing to uphold the law, but by accusing police officers of systemic racism, being in need of reform, reimagining and defunding,” said Sgt. Betsy Brantner Smith (Ret), a spokesperson for the National Police Association, in a statement.

The poll also found:

62% of voters believe politicians who downplayed the riots should be criticized, 11 points higher than those who believe politicians should be called out for minimizing the importance of the D.C. riot; 63% believe looters and rioters who broke the law last summer should be charged and criminally prosecuted; 65% say President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris should meet with the family of former St. Louis Police captain David Dorn, who was slain by rioters; 68% believe failing to prosecute “quality of life” crimes like shoplifting make criminals more likely to reoffend; and 76% of likely voters say young people ought to be taught to obey police officers’ lawful commands instead of resisting or fleeing arrest. The results, which come from a poll released by Rasmussen and the National Police Association last Wednesday, follow a poll in April that found 55% of likely voters believe anti-police rhetoric makes police officers’ jobs more dangerous.

NOT Good Enough, I want EVERY Elected Official that Collaborated with them Charged Accordingly

That's not what you stated. You stated they were a threat to the transfer of power. Quit moving the goalposts.

The finish on your tin foil deflector beanie needs a new coat.

Why, because there is truth involved? Almost seven months later and we still don't know the name of the officer that shot the white unarmed female vet. They refuse to release 1400 hours of video inside and outside the Capital to Congress yet alone the public. Still don't know why those arrested are in solitary confinement, never given a court date to post bond like us Americans do, and won't tell us who refused Trump's offer to send the guard there before it even started.

Well the Neo-GOP certainly had their chance at a special bi-partisan special counsel, but for some reason want to downplay the event as nothing much more than some rowdy, sight seeing tourist.

Yeah, Congressmen Banks and Jordan were kicked off of that so-called bipartisan committee because they publicly stated they would be asking Piglosi questions on the failure of security there. When they form bipartisan committees, it's their own party that decides who will serve on it, not the opposing party. When the opposing party does, you know it's a rigged game right from the beginning with no hardball questions.

 

[Flash]

The Democrat assholes encouraged and condoned the Negro/Communists insurrection.

The Democrat filth ain't gonna investigate their own insurrection.

Besides, making headlines with the 1/6 investigation takes the heat of the fact they stole the election from the American people.

Only stupid uneducated Moon Bats fall for it.

Of course those yokels fall for everything. They are not exactly the best and brightest.

They are putting on this dog and pony show because of Donald Trump. I've been following politics for a long time, and I've never seen a party so deathly scared of one man as the commies are of President Trump.

Ignorance is no excuse. The House select Committee is the last resort. The proposed bi-partisan commission had to be passed by both chambers. Like the Commission that looked into the Clintons and 9-11 Independent of Congress with an equal number from each party. That was turned down by the Senate in May.

Trump won the election. The Democrats stole the Electoral College delegates from him with corruption in the Democrat controlled swing districts. The Swamp and RINOs let the Democrats get away with it. The Courts were too chickenshit to do the right the thing. They even said so.

Trump unleashed American nationalism, which is a threat to the welfare state and to globalism. All the domestic and foreign filth that have been sucking at the teat of big government felt threatened. They had to get rid of him. The Chinese helped them big time

They stole our democracy to get rid of the one person who could restore American greatness because American greatness was unacceptable to them.

Of course you and I are also responsible. We know better and we let the sonofabitches get away with it.

When the book is written on the demise of the US there will be many villains. We will be listed because Patriots like us didn't stand up to the assholes that stole our Democracy.
