    I would hope that any thinking man can differentiate between protests at a city-level vs. an attack on our state Capitol aimed at, at the very least, changing the outcome of a fairly run election against the will of the majority of Americans based on a false pretense that the vice president can change the outcome of the election (he can't).


    What is the motive?

    With the protests and riots form BLM, the protests were motivated by police brutality.

    With the protests and riots and attacks on the Capitol, the motivation was a LIE told by Donald J. Trump that there was widespread election fraud (there wasn't - fact), inciting his mob, close to the Capitol, to "fight like hell."


    What is the implication?

    On one side you have riots and protests against police brutality.

    On one side you have riots and protests with threat to harm members of Congress and disrupt a democratic process and the rule of law.


    Are these the same? To they hold the same gravity? Are they motivated by truth or lies? Are they for a just cause or for a false cause? That would be a starting point.

    I'm tired of posting this. I don't understand what you don't understand. I really don't. This is simple stuff. It doesn't take a genius to see the difference and understand the implications.

    Are you suggesting the BLM violence and riots are then acceptable, because you believe the motivation for those actions are just?

    I ask because "fight like hell" could mean alot of things. Especially when alot of the BLM protesters said they were "fighting for racial justice" a phrase many democrat leaders have used.

    If you accept them using the word figuratively, and I assume you do, then why can't you believe Donald Trump said it figuratively as well?

    It seems to me like your taking the position that the ends justify the means.

    Or not?

    Because I don't see the difference between one side enciting violence and the other when nearly identical rhetoric was used.

    I mean, I get that you don't like Tucker Carlson, but does that make it acceptable to attack his home screaming threats because you don't like his political views. ?

    Even if the BLM movement was based on a lie, like Trump's movement, it still would not remotely equate to a president inciting a mob to attack the Capitol over a fairly run election.

    Last I checked, BLM didn't break into the Capitol, call to hang and kill members of congress, and bring zip ties with them.

    Tell me where Kamala Harris said anything like "Fight like hell." Direct quotes please. This is just a tip of the iceberg that was the entire scheme to overthrow the election before it even began. Look at the big picture ( I know you won't).
