And then, in contradistinction we have RightWinger and Boogaloo Bois Ivan Harrison Hunter who fired his semi-automatc into a Minneapolis police headquarters and lit the building afire during the social justice unrest following the police murder of George Floyd.
From multiple media sources...CBS, NBC, Guardian, et al:
"A rightwing extremist boasted of driving from Texas to Minneapolis to help set fire to a police precinct during the George Floyd protests, federal prosecutors said.
US attorney Erica MacDonald said on Friday that she had charged Ivan Harrison Hunter, a 26-year-old Texas resident, with traveling across state lines to participate in a riot. The charges are the latest example of far-right extremists attempting to use violence to escalate national protests against police brutality into an uprising against the government, and even full civil war.
The case also reveals the extent of the coordination between violent members of the nascent far-right “Boogaloo Bois” movement operating in different cities across the country.
Later, he privately messaged Steven Carrillo, another alleged “Boogaloo Boi” in California, urging him to “go for police buildings”, according to the federal criminal complaint.
“I did better, lol,” Carrillo allegedly replied.
Hours before Carrillo sent that message, according to the complaint, federal prosecutors say Carrillo had driven to Oakland with an accomplice, and, as protesters were demonstrating blocks away, shot two officers guarding a federal courthouse in downtown Oakland, killing one, David Patrick Underwood.
Carrillo was later charged with killing another law enforcement officer, a Santa Cruz sheriff’s deputy, in an ambush attack in June.

This incident illustrates that in many of the civil disturbances during the social justice unrest of 2020 were sparked or accelerated by right wing nutjobs. Witness yesterday's reportage of the California right wing nut job who was sentenced to 20yrs in prison for savagely beating uniformed police protecting our elected representatives in Washington DC. The judge in the sentencing cited the RWNJ's participation in and violence during other political protests by people these RWNJ's don't like.
We have seen in city after city that RWNJ instigators started and propelled the violence.
Conservatives do not have clean hands with what happened in that summer.....which, it seems, was merely a training exercise for the thousands of Trumploons who attacked America on January 6th.
I know that, you know that, everybody knows that.
