So long as (1) we pay good attention to the inciters and enablers of the January 6th riots and (2) those get first and best attention, then we are in complete agreementNo, they're a$$hole$, alright, and they're inconsistent, and they minimize January 6th disingenuously, but they're right about the phukking Floyd riots...Democrats are so busy kissing Minority a$$ for votes that it blinds them to the fact that George Floyd was a criminal scumbag who stupidly resisted arrest.Democrats want a stacked, rigged "congressional commission" to "investigate" a 4-hour riot that is already being investigated by the FBI and the DC DA. But, they don't want to investigate the far more destructive and widespread George Floyd riots, which were, in many cases, coordinated by BLM and Antifa activists, and which caused over a dozen deaths, hundreds of injuries, the occupation of parts of two major cities, assaults on hundreds of police officers, the burning down of a police station, massive looting, and billions of dollars of damage.
And, of course, we now know that the George Floyd riots were unjustified, because we now know that Derek Chauvin did not put his knee on Floyd's neck, that Chauvin did not cause Floyd's death, that Floyd had ingested over three times the lethal dosage of fentanyl shortly before his police encounter, that Floyd was having trouble breathing before Chauvin laid a finger on him, that Floyd had severe heart problems, that the officers had no way of knowing any of this, and that Floyd had numerous chances to avoid being pinned on the ground but failed to take any of them.
Letting Black Lives Matter and the loosely-organized AntiFa scum off the hook without serious prosecutions is also a mistake that the next GOP administration should correct.
But when it comes to a commission to investigate the incitement and execution of the January 6, 2021 Insurrection against the lawful authority of the United States...
Such a commission SHOULD be launched and maximized and that Commission should aggressively pursue such treasonous scum and their leaders and inciters without mercy.
Those (high and low) found responsible should be criminally charged, convicted of a major and violent felony, and given the maximum sentences for imprisonment and fines.
For the worst of the rank-and-file offenders in that Insurrectionist mob, it's a damned shame that the police did not volley-fire into that crowd with automatic weapons.
That goes for their Orange Baboon-God too... Cadet Bone Spurs didn't join them as promised or lead from the front... the cowardly POS went into hiding and watched, safely.
Teflon Don talks-the-talk, but he doesn't walk-the-walk... and his Make AmericaWhiteGreat Again suckers and minions blind themselves to such important shortcomings.
The fact is that even people who are arrested have rights. One of those is a right to life. Floyd was no threat to the officers yet Chauvin refused to get off his neck. The police also infrlamed the protestors by dressing up in para-military uniforms as if they were enemies of this country.
So, the violence of the rioters is not their fault, it is the fault of the COP'S UNIFORMS?
lol!!!

When you treat people like they are the enemy, that sends a message. In cases where there was not violence, officers interacted with the protestors. The police completely mishandled the protests and in many cases they were the attackers.
....
What kind of message does it send, when half the country sees the other half engage in 4 years of violent, political riots, and then when they see some of their own, go over the line and have a FOUR HOUR riot, ,
and the four years are ignored and glossed over, while the four hours are treated as the worst thing to ever happen in this country?
Hint: It rhymes with Declaration of War.
What kind of message does it send when one side engages in unconstitutional violations of the civil rights of anyone who isn’t white or Christian?
What kind of message does it send when police are allowed to indiscriminately murder civilians with no consequences?
Right wing assholes such as yourself always call protest from the left “riots” and “dangerous”. It’s like only one side has a constitutional right to seek redress with you clowns.
Last but not least, every time the left protests, hardline right wingers come out and violently counter protest. The protest last summer weren’t violent. But the counter protesters and the troublemakers and those who want to discredit Black Lives Matter, came out and burned and looted and caused violence.
It’s hardly surprising that Trump cult assholes such as yourself, are still lying about the protests.
Those weren't protests for the most part, those were riots, triggered by the Neanderthals and wastes-of-good-oxygen living in those $hithole$...
I'm not minimizing the 1/6 riot. It was a violent riot, and those that committed crimes should be prosecuted for their crimes.
This thread is about the YEARS of riots from the other side, and how maybe we should look into the violent criminals behind THOSE riots.
Those two ideas are not in conflict.
