Let’s cut to the chase let’s look at a study that compared the sentences of the J6 vandals and the George Floyd rioters:
“It’s a common refrain from some of those charged in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol and their Republican allies: The Justice Department is treating them harshly because of their political views while those arrested during last year’s
protests over racial injustice were given leniency.
Court records tell a different story.
An Associated Press review of court documents in
more than 300 federal cases stemming from the protests sparked by
George Floyd’s death last year shows that dozens of people charged have been convicted of serious crimes and sent to prison.
The AP found that more than 120 defendants across the United States have pleaded guilty or were convicted at trial of federal crimes including rioting, arson and conspiracy. More than 70 defendants who’ve been sentenced so far have gotten an average of about 27 months behind bars. At least 10 received prison terms of five years or more.”
Some people charged in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol and their Republican allies claim the Justice Department is treating them harshly because of their political views.

There were deferred prosecution and lenient sentences for some Portland rioters as there were for some J6 insurrectionists.
The J6 desecrators got what they deserved.
