You are such a lying sack of bs. The demrats for the most part said nothing about the summer riots and there were some deaths as well.With all due respect Taz, I have seen this comparison all day. It is a false comparison. The rioting that took place six months ago dealt with the destruction of personal property. Yes, it was crime, and many of us, including Joe Biden, condemned it.From many of you on both sides of the aisle. Those of you expressing outrage over today's events at the Capitol (as you should be) said very little or, in a 180, actively encouraged the violence and destruction that took place by BLM and ANTIFA six months ago when they were rampaging through America's streets, ultimately resulting in the deaths of 17 people.
Conversely, many of you who rightfully criticized those riots are now openly expressing support for the reckless display going on today. You are cheering on attacks on our cops, who you guys claim to support (and many of which probably voted for Trump), and so far one person has died.
As I've been saying for a long time, the right and left are merely two sides of the same coin.
However, what happened today was an assault on the very foundation of our Constitutional Republic. It was not just property damage, this riot or assault was a dagger aimed at the heart of our democratic institutions. It was an incitement by a president of the United Staes to overturn a full and fair election.
There is no comparison between the two and it is intellectual dishonesty by anyone to make such a comparison.
