It would also help if you didn't have your Head of State egging them on.
Yeah, I know, that's totally unfounded. He's not a cunt and his most ardent followers aren't useful idiots.
Honestly - the woman near us crossing out Pence's name from her garden poster really had me thinking. What the fuck drugs is she on when she thinks Mike Pence is the bad guy here?

There's tons of "BLM" or "No Hate Here" signs on storefronts and lawns around here. I wouldn't touch those examples of humanity with an 11 foot pole. My pole goes to 11.

Those guys are facing suspension and maybe charges.
And there''s where the precedent is broken. We're actually enforcing the law.
I fear the real precedent is that if you have a pop-culture-approved cause, you can riot with impunity, but if not, you can't.

As for the destruction of federal property last summer, Trump and Barr were pretty adamant that they’d be prosecuting to the limits of the law. While I haven’t seen any follow up, I assume they did.

No slippery slope?

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.

My daughter and her roommate had a trip to DC planned for the inauguration. They have reconsidered.

@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.

He maxed out on Biden and every competitive congressional race so the DNC gave him a ticket.
Yeah, that’s it.

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.
Please love yourself.

You keep saying that but it still does not wash logically. It's how you FEEL about it, not the facts.

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.
