So there is right way to riot?

[MaryL]

Well, given the BLM/ANTIFA riots over the span of most of 2020 Vs say What happened on just that ONE day in January, in Washington. Why not examine ALL of those riots?

First you make sure that you own the Judges and prosecutors who will even make sure no bail is needed. This all made possible by the local leaders who will actually join you. Then they make sure the State Police and National Guard don't show up to END IT.

Kinda like the Walking Tall movie on steroids.

I am confused. We discourage people from taking the law into their hands. Vigilantism. Lynch mobs, stuff like that. Like when say, people act like they did on Jan. 6th, pissed off at outrages, they MUST restrain themselves and act within the rule of the law...why can't we hold BLM/Antifa accountable for not restraining themselves and all the damage THEY have done?

Run of the mill mass protest and civil unrest are not and can never be a threat equal to an attack on the seats of power. Your search for equivalence and justification is in vain.

Why not? We can't we hold ALL rioters held to the same standard?

If you're gonna have a real dandy of a riot in this country, you have to get some high-level Democrats in Congress and the media to support you first. Like when Kamala Harris praised Antifa and BLM.

Or like when the media was gushing over the hundreds of Women’s March members who were engaged in “direct action” to disrupt the Senate’s Kavanaugh hearings.

Or like when Maxine Waters urged people “If you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd. And you push back on them."

Or like when House members took to proposing bills to protect the mobs of BLM from law enforcement, as they were battlling Secret Service personnel and forcing the evacuation of President Trump and his family to a bunker.

Or like when Kamala Harris and Biden campaign staffers created a bail fund to get the rioters and looters get out of prison.

Or like when Chris Cuomo said “Please, show me where it says protesters are supposed to be polite and peaceful” one night on CNN, while his news network showed rioting and looting in New York.

Or like when Kamala Harris said during the height of the riots "Nothing that we have achieved that has been about progress, in particular around civil rights, has come without a fight, and so I always am going to interpret these protests as an essential component of evolution in our country."

Or Nancy Pelosi, when asked to clarify whether she preferred statues to be taken down by mobs or if it should be decided legally by a committee or other formal process. Her answer was simply, “People will do what they do.”

There is no “right way” to riot unless you are a Trump supporter. Then, you are not a rioter, you are a patriot and a tourist.

Riots have become the tool of Democrats. Accept when a few whites pissed them off at them do it, then its insurrection and "antidemocracy". Well, a lot off us are pissed off at democrats and their funding and endorsing this racial divisiveness. Burn down cities over and driving racial animosity? How does that fight racism or anything?

Like any crime applicable statute and intent matters when it comes to penalties. Violating a curfew, B+E, vandalism etc are certainly crimes but doing it at the capital is way more serious from a legal standpoint. The people charged so far are getting off light. Coup attempts in other countires are treated far more harshly.

Yet attacking a Federal Building in Portland is cool.

Because they're black ---- I have to tell you these things??

On the other hand , there is no evidence what happened on Jan 6 was a coup. In the spirit of fairness, why can't ALL the the riots then be investigated? Why not investigate ALL the political parties involved, those that funded them and all that, in the spirit of bipartisanship and fairness? Seems fair.

No it's not cool and you will not hear me make the case that anyone was justified in their criminal actions. Certainly I will not ever say it was patriotic or lionize the participants in any illegal or subversive activity. You can't say that.

The reality is that Democrat Mayors know that if they prosecute Black rioters they will be voted out of office.

Generalized civil unrest just happens. There's nothing to investigate. The capital insurrection had far too much advance planning to have been a run of the mill random outbreak of lawlessness. There was so much about it that was anomalous and unprecedented that it must be understood exactly what happened,

 

[MaryL]

This is the Democrat paradigm, supporting rioting for a year is acceptable we are fighting straight white Christians because pandering to the lowest common denominator that riot and destroy gets more votes...

Really? What's wrong with investigating all the riots, then? Why just Jan. 6 th?
