Protesters Storm the AZ Legislature!

I never denied there was violence. I’m denying there’s some high level conspiracy to protect liberal demonstrators while getting conservative demonstrators.

For the record, we live in a country that protects speech and demonstration, and as a rule the police will let stuff fly.

But when the riots were happening in LA, I was watching the police roundup on live helicopter feeds. Trust me, there was no stand down order.

So where are the leaders of BLM and Antifa that are being held awaiting their trials?

Show me and I’ll concede you win.

Show me their proof of involvement and wrongdoing and I’ll show you their trials.

Even the conservative gangs have protections afforded by the constitution. They’re not being arrested willy nilly. But the people that clearly and in many cases on video participated in breaking into the Capitol? Yup, they’re getting trials.

This idiot lives in an alternative universe.

He’s really trying to tell us “They aren’t multimillion dollar protected movements”??? Get your head out of the sand you fucking idiot

I read 3 of the legit links, won’t click the two trash ones you put up and none show that those groups are protected BECAUSE they are NOT.

Quit fucking lying.

Comedy…Apparently he thinks he can ignore and speak things into existence. These people are sick cultists.

But when the riots were happening in LA,

@thre305ive. Lol…NYC then, Deblasio then, Portland then, Seattle then

You are simply wrong.

You are simply wrong, and I simply explained how. I don’t know what happened in NYC and didn’t comment about that.

LOL…All the political posting you did in 2020 (Deblasio was discussed plenty, Portland was discussed plenty, that asshead mayor of Washington was discussed plenty)…And you never noticed what was going on in other cities? OK

Just stop playing stupid and stop lying

It’s the issue I have with him. Cool guy. Smart. Just plays possum politically too much.

I call it a rather mild political disruption, no more alarming than a ladies ice cream social gone awry. There were no weapons, except for the one use by the capital policeman to murder one of the protestors. Compared to the 474 George Floyd riots, protestors it was benign, no fires, cars torched, no mass looting, no police murdered, no multitudes sent to the hospital. Jan 6 was a nothingburger about which lies of colossally exaggerated proportions were concocted by the left to try and besmirch the best president in a hundred years.

Apparently the internet connection on the bayou doesn’t work very well.

You are choosing to ignore what is right in front of you. It’s been proven.

I’m beginning to think Trump has some kind of dirt on you.

I can’t speak for policing in cities where I’m not present. I brought up my liberal city as a factual counterpoint. This myth you guys are pushing simply isn’t true.

Lol…So you don’t comment on anything here unless you were there brushing up against it with your shoulders?

You were at every protest in LA? What about other parts of the state? You were at every one? That’s why you can comment on them and not another state?

You sure as hell have a lot to say about what happened during a couple hours in Washington DC though right?

Does your mail come by pony express too?

You are so lost and so partisan…And again going out of your way to play dumb.

The left’s uprisings are backed by a 85-90% of media which is left biased, all of Hollywood, etc, etc…They are all done for some fictional greater good that is implied in every report on it. Wake up.

This is their logic and their only real motivation…a black guy became President and black people starting getting “riled up” throughout the nation. To them, that means they can overthrow the government and a legal election for President.

Yep, exactly. Fucking sinful bastards

Violence on either side is WRONG and should be reported as such equally. It’s just not done that way. It’s far right vs far left with no middle man and a loss of common sense imo.

Protest. Make your voice heard. Get involved. Be active. Vote. Run for office. Be the change.

But destroying public property, interfering with violence for any cause should be called what it is. Wrong.

We have means of civil discourse. We should try them. Maybe listen to the other side. Shoot, maybe even bring back compromise. Not everything should be a zero sum game, and I believe progress dies under this strategy regardless of which side has the power to push change.

But…violence shouldn’t be condoned or swept under the rug based on a certain cause vs another. It’s wrong. We should be better than this. Should be…

This is a lie at the onset.

The rest of what you write is in good spirit. I fear your initial lie is not in good faith tho, however

Respectfully I don’t understand your perspective and would be happy to hear it. Truly.

My point was simple. Violence should Not be a tool for political change in this country. We have the means for it already.

Opinions aren’t lies my friend. They are just that. I’m open to friendly discourse though fellow canes fans.

You are saying violence ISNT reported equally.

Correct?

Political violence

Using these two instances, my opinion is that they are not being reported equally. The scale of the two may not be exactly the same. I feel as someone sitting dead center on most issues, no, they are not treated equally in the media.

However, I’ll stand by my point. And that was that violence should not be used as a blunt tool for EITHER. I think we should be better. I think the populace deserves better coverage from BOTH ends of the spectrum.

And I was not present at either event, so my opinion is based on the reporting I’m able to consume.
