          If it had ever come to that in a BLM riot, people would have been screaming fascism. Now people are rejoicing at the restoration of law and order. Enjoy.

                I support a huge presence. It’s a consequence on what we are now learning was a premeditated attack on our Capitol.

                Also now the fringe groups have earned the right to be taken at their word.

                That’s just the way it is.

                As it happens I will coincidentally be in DC on Inauguration Day. May be the safest place in the US.

                              The response to Portland was abysmal but I see no argument that it was in any way on par with an attempt to overturn our elections that resulted in an officer dying, terrorists preparing to assassinate our leaders, and Congressmen having to shelter in place due to pipe bombs being planted. It's not even remotely close to the same scenario.

                                  It washes legally, sorry. An entirely different set of laws were broken on top of the commonalities between it and Portland. Read the FBI and attorney releases and tell me I'm wrong.

                                    There was just no way we as a society could have squelched the BLM riots with force. Pop culture would not have allowed it and the righteous retribution of the nation-wide mobs against any such use of overwhelming law enforcement would have been even greater. Meanwhile, after the group of unarmed doofuses raided the largely unguarded Capitol, pop culture has become engorged with excitement at the prospect of bringing the law enforcement hammer down on any such future attempts. So that's a huge difference. I totally accept use of force to quell doofuses against Capitol invasions. I do not accept our status quo of righteous rioting, about which we can do nothing, whenever a racist cop incident goes viral.

                                    Education is extremely important.

                                      There was just no way we as a society could have squelched the BLM riots with force. Pop culture would not have allowed it and the righteous retribution of the nation-wide mobs against any such use of overwhelming law enforcement would have been even greater. Meanwhile, after the group of unarmed doofuses raided the largely unguarded Capitol, pop culture has become engorged with excitement at the prospect of bringing the law enforcement hammer down on any such future attempts. So that's a huge difference. I totally accept use of force to quell doofuses against Capitol invasions. I do not accept our status quo of righteous rioting, about which we can do nothing, whenever a racist cop incident goes viral.

                                      Agreed, but we humans are really bad at creating the proper balance.

                                      Are there no charges being brought up on anyone from the Seattle mess? If not, then that is wrong, and needs to be fixed.

                                      I'm with Aqua on this though.

                                      Our constitution, our very way of life, was attacked on the 6th.

                                      These people need to go to prison for a long time.

                                      Any more attacks on the foundation or pillars of our nation, should be considered an act of war/sedition and defended with deadly force. If they don't die during the attack, lock them up for life.

                                      Any more violence in the streets of our nation should also be met met with deadly force during the incident. Again, those that do not die, are locked up for as long as they can physically pose a threat to anyone. IOW, until they are very very old, or dead.

                                      Protesting is one thing. Committing acts of violence is another. One is legal, one in not. Pretty simple actually.

                                        Yes, enough people, including the MSM and all important idea propagators, are engorged with excitement over that prospect.

                                        Just don't expect that excitement to last, if the doofuses attempting an "attack on the pillars of our democracy" are backed by leftist outrage.

                                        Any more violence in the streets of our nation should also be met met with deadly force during the incident. Again, those that do not die, are locked up for as long as they can physically pose a threat to anyone. IOW, until they are very very old, or dead.

                                        And that won't happen. And you never advocated for it at the time, during the BLM riots. I recall you were dismissive of CHAZ, making fun of those who thought it was some sort of violent takeover. While everybody knew that the police station had been abandoned, for the very reason that violence would have occurred if it hadn't been. We as a society were terrified of using force against the mobs.

                                        Education is extremely important.

                                          @loki I don’t disagree at all. I was referencing The Speaker’s comments about federal troops in Portland.

                                          Stormtroopers for thee but not for me.

                                          Portland is not where a national election was delayed due to terrorism.

                                          No. But is where a federal building was firebombed.

                                          The response to Portland was abysmal but I see no argument that it was in any way on par with an attempt to overturn our elections that resulted in an officer dying, terrorists preparing to assassinate our leaders, and Congressmen having to shelter in place due to pipe bombs being planted. It's not even remotely close to the same scenario.

                                          How about Seattle? That IMO is worse, akin to the attack on The Alamo... Armed combatants took control of property belonging to US Citizens, the city of Seattle, the State of Washington, and The United States of America and declared it as an autonomous city/state outside of the boundaries, laws, and authority of the United States and governing authorities.
