The Blm riots and The capitol riots were both bad. Since it was an attack on our government, anyone involved in the violence should be judged more harshly than in the summer riots. I think we can all agree on that. What anyone bringing up this summer's riots is trying to say is that the media's reactions are very different. All summer, the media defended cities being torched and people killing cops. Then, the riots happened, and they are suddenly entirely against it. I will not try to defend either side, since they were both terrible crimes and all should spend jailtime. At the same time, you have to consider the others' point of view.

To be quite honest, I have a hard time doing that.

I cannot in good conscience berate the media for having the outrage regarding the response of peaceful protesters who spoke out against our governments travesties against the sanctity of human life.
I cannot in good conscience take the Right-Wing seriously when they espouse "the sanctity of human life" of an unborn child when they counter protest the very same message of BLM. I ask myself, "So, according to you, lives only matter when they're unborn?"
I cannot in good conscience dismiss the right for using "Blue Lives Matter" as a counter-protest slogan, and decrying the sports industry for players kneeling to the flag, when they beat a police officer with the American flag in mob rage.
It is unfortunate that there were BLM riots.
It is despicable the police reacted just as harshly to peaceful protests as they did to full blown riots.

But most of all, it is absolutely ... I say this with every fiber of my being. The most sick, twisted, racist, - I can't even find the words to express my disdain... The most disgusting thing about this, is how Trump gassed an entire square of peaceful protesters in front of a church, and rubber pelted them. All for a f**king photo. Not a year passes, and there's a mob on the way to the capitol. This was planned. There is more and more evidence to suggest it. Incredibly mounting evidence; I digress. Not a year passes, and a mob marches to the capitol, and tear gas is deployed too late.

Racial f**king profiling. BLM was right. This riot puts the message of BLM on full display.

MOSTLY Peaceful Protesters

No, all lives do matter(not trying to use that counter slogan, just stating that they do) we believe unborn lives matter, and black lives matter just as much. The problem counter-protesters had wasn't the slogan. Their problem is the idea of defunding the police or redistributing wealth in an attempt to fix the problems. Those would drive up crime and poverty.

About Trump and the church. The police drove them out because they were BURNING and vandalising the church. And the tear gas thing was a myth. They didn't drive them out for a photo, they drove them out to protect the church. The photo came later as a sort of "the church still stands" message. You are spreading lies saying they were peaceful or that they were gassed.

As for the recent event, it was intended to be peaceful, and when it got violent, they were tear gassed, driven out, and treated worse than the BLM people. You can blame congress if you think the capitol police weren't harsh enough, since they have control over them, not the president. However, a woman was shot by them defending the capitol. Yes, there were a few that took selfies with them and such, and they have been suspended. Trump then called in the National guard and broke up everything, even though they were his supporters. This had nothing to do with the race of the protesters.

I had a whole response typed out, but I had a bug on my keyboard where both CTRL keys were virtually stuck.

I'll just say that I understand ALM. There is a reason why its offensive. I used to be of the ALM camp until I learned. The message of BLM is not to redistribute wealth. Those may have been secondary messages, but not the primary message - and that is to stop the use of excessive force against minorities undeserving of the action.

I do concede that there are reports of damage to the church, but the misinformation you're pedaling is that the fire happened the night *before*.
T
o me, it seems this video police attack and charge people just standing there. Seems to me that the alleged fire at the church has long since been put out.

Here is footage of when the actual fire took place

Would you care to comment on the claim that Trump Teargassed them because they were burning the church?

Oof, I hate when thet happens. I have lost so many comments by accedentally refreshing the page on mobile.

As for your comment itself, all i have to say is that he didn't teargass them. They were driven out, but tear gas wasn't used. And just because the fire had gone out doesn't mean the vandalism stopped.

In the famous words of Octavia_Melody,
“Except that didn’t happen.”

They had the opportunity to burn, yet they didn’t do it.

It’s attempted arsen, but same difference.

The guy who brought the molotovs can get arrested. I don’t care about that.
What I do care about is that none were used.

Bombs were planted and disarmed in the US capitol. The man arrested for the molotovs was caught in the act before he was able to use them.

I guess you'd rather wait for someone to pull the trigger ...

Well that’s a fun bedtime story. Molotov cocktails are not bombs.

"A Molotov cocktail **(or petrol bomb)** is a crude incendiary weapon which consists of a glass bottle semi-filled with flammable liquid, usually gasoline (petrol) or alcohol (generally methanol or ethanol), the mouth of the bottle is stoppered with a cork or other type of airtight bung (rubber, glass, or plastic), and a cloth rag fixed securely around the mouth. The weapon is used by first soaking the rag in a flammable liquid immediately prior to using it, lighting the rag and throwing the bottle at the target. The bottle shatters on impact, spilling the flammable liquid over the target which is then ignited by the burning rag."

Did you enjoy your bedtime story? You should get some sleep if you plan on going to go to school tomorrow to get an education.

Phoning what in?

Exactly. Proved my point. It’s not a bomb you can just disarm. It doesn’t explode. It leaves a puddle of fire.

So thanks for the bedtime story.

Bomb (n.):

a container filled with explosive, incendiary material, smoke, gas, or other destructive substance, designed to explode on impact or when detonated by a time mechanism, remote-control device, or lit fuse.

explode (v.):

burst or shatter violently and noisily as a result of rapid combustion, decomposition, excessive internal pressure, or other process, typically scattering fragments widely.

How Molotovs fit this description under Bomb:
A Container filled with ... incendiary material or other destructive substance, designed to explode on impact or when detonated by a lit fuse (Glass shatters* on impact, there is a lit fuse with the rag)

How molotovs fit under explode:
Burst or shatter and noisily as a result of rapid combustion. (Shattering glass is noise along with the sound of gasoline and styrofoam rapidly igniting)

Therefore, it is a petrol bomb. For a party that likes weapons, you sure don't understand them. You're just trying to be right for the sake of being right when you can't even provide a platform to suggest that a molotove cocktail is not a bomb and does not explode.

Tell that to the guys who want to put all BLM/ANTIFA protesters in the same box as the BLM/ANTIFA rioters
