Proof Democrats Only Listen To The Facts They Want To Listen To

[Harry Dresden]

Yes, I was pointing out that the left are no better than the right, even though they constantly proclaim that they are. They are liars. For everything they attack the right on, they do the very same thing. Both sides are a cult.

the die hards on both sides call each other the same names....they are so much alike you would think they would just merge and become one...

Rioters, just like rioters attacked our democracy all summer long. Trump's words had nothing to do with rioters, just as Bernie's words really didn't have anything to do with one of his followers going to DC to shoot up Republicans, attacking our Democracy, after Bernie repeatedly called for a revolution.

Okay there Mr Middle of the road! LOL What a phony. So those Trump flags and the Threats to kill Pelosi and Pence were just random and the mob came together through osmosis? Do you have any idea how silly that sounds? Independent? Sure you are.....

I never said there weren't any rioters. There were, just like there were rioters trying to overthrow our democracy all summer long, just like one of Bernie's followers went to DC to attack our democracy by shooting up Republicans, after Bernie repeatedly called for a revolution. Bernie wasn't any more at fault for that as Trump was for Jan 6th. There are wackos on both sides who think they are marching to the orders of someone else when, in reality, they are only marching to the voices in their own heads.

So, you seriously want to equate BLM and street brawlers looting stores to a seditious attack on the Capitol with a stated aim to murder the Speaker of the House and The Vice President at the direction of the President? ? ( Let's go and march to the Capitol and fight like hell. You've gotta fight like hell or you're not gonna have a country!" He even called the Day! He even told them he would take part! And once it started, he watched it on TV and did nothing to stop it despite every scoundrel around him begging him to tell HIS mob to stand down. To say there's no difference and that Trump didn't incite it is just plain silly. And you sir are a silly person who is in no way what you claim to be. Just another cult member who can't see past your nose. How do you live with yourself? Shame on you, you unAmerican clown.

More typical Trumpian "Whataboutism."

The BLM rioters attacked law enforcement officers which is an attack on our democracy.

The BLM rioters burned down police stations which is an attack on our democracy.

The BLM rioters took over swaths of US territory and turned them into lawless zones, another attack on our democracy.

The BLM rioters tried to overrun a federal courthouse, attacking our democratic system.

Bernie repeatedly called for a revolution and one of his followers took up the cause by going to DC and shooting up Republican Congressmen, an attack on our democracy.

BLM members were attacked by police for protesting and assembling to redress grievances. Many were literally kidnapped by unmarked vehicles. They fought back against tyranny. So, Black people are not allowed to exercise their first amendment rights? And that's okay with you?

Bullshit! The protesters were mostly peacefully protesting the death of George Floyd and the systemic racism spurred on by the right, specifically Trump. The violence that followed was outside extremist groups. The vast majority of that violence occurred well after the BLM protesters left the scene. But the Trump adm. and folks like Matt Gaetz used it to defend Trump against his second impeachment by creating a false equivalency to the Capitol rioters.
The mob at the Capitol was fueled by baseless conspiracies propagated by Trump that the election was stolen from him through massive fraud. The rioters acted on the president’s direct urging to “fight like hell.” They attacked police with pipes and chemicals and planted bombs. They were met largely with restraint by law enforcement.

The unrest that followed Floyd’s death included vandalism, arson and looting, but the vast majority of demonstrations were peaceful. Some of the worst violence was in Portland, where thousands of protesters turned out nightly for weeks. Some hurled fireworks, rocks, ball bearings and bottles at federal agents, and a member of a right-wing extremist group was gunned down by an antifa supporter.

But prominent BLM activists repeatedly distanced themselves from provocateurs and brawlers. Much of the violence came from provoked and unprovoked confrontations with police, during city-imposed curfews and after peaceful demonstrators had gone home. An analysis of more than 7,750 demonstrations in 2,400 locations across the country found that 93% happened with no violence, according to the US Crisis Monitor, a joint effort by Princeton University and the Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project.

There was shit going on both ways. That doesn't give BLM carte blanche to attack our democracy.

How is protesting racism a threat to democracy? What the police did prior to the violence breaking out was the threat to democracy. Just like when Trump wanted to do his little Photo-Op holding a bible upside down. He ordered police to tear gas peaceful protesters to "clear the way" for him to saunter down to pull that stunt. That's what a threat to democracy looks like. I'd bet the farm you are on board with Trump and Pompeo's support for Putin there Mr Indy!
