    Keep denying it and maybe you will get more weak minded people to believe you.

    I would love to see the same standard applied to rioters anywhere.

    Awesome. Does that include the people jailed for just being in the vicinity or only those that actually committed a violent act.

    I would think you'd want to convict them for something illegal.

    So jailing them for trespass for years is acceptable?

    My problem is the Democrats have gone after people who didn't even enter the Capitol. They were not guilty of doing any damage. Yet if they were spotted on security cameras outside, the Democrats are after them.

    You have a stink-o presidential candidate, and you have the summer of 2020 riots which your side ignores completely. You also have the attempts to burn the Federal Courthouse in Portland. If you want to credible with your Jan 6 campaign, you need to recognize those events also.

    “The Democrats” aren’t going “after” anyone.

    Nobody is ignoring the summer protests and riots. That’s a RW echo chamber lie. If people broke the law, they should be prosecuted.

    We're gonna need more prisons to deal with violent leftist insurrectionists.

    Then again:
    IF "whataboutism" is the only "defense" of those defending the J6 rioters...
    THEN Talking Points are wearing rather thin...
    Just sayin'...:flagus:

    Yea? Where are the prosecutions? Where is the outrage? Nowhere. It's forgotten.

    Sorry, but Trump types have been making this false analogy since Jan 7th, and they’re still repeating it.

    No one in BLM or whichever bogey man you choose ever plotted to overthrow the government by conniving to install the loser in office. Much less storm the Capitol building.

    The continued use of this false equivalency says a lot about the racial views of the Trump crowd.

    You can live in your little progressive fantasy of having ONE PARTY with your side in charge. When you learn that absolute power corrupts absolutely, it will be too late. Or maybe you are one of those lucky people is "wired" with a nice cushy government job and figure one party rule will work well for you.

    Trump is a pain in the butt, and I don't like him. But your party, "lead" by a figurehead with dementia, is far worse. It's a lousy choice, but given what the system as given us, I'll have to vote for Trump.

    Why, when there is a debate on J6, the right keeps claiming Joe and the dems are being tyrannical, but you never actually address what those J6'rs end game was ? Had they succeeded, democracy would be over.

    Good.

    So when the leftists inevitably behave far worse when Trump is re-elected, you'll support the same standard being applied.

    Raise hell because they didn’t get Trump elected. Some of them deserved to go to jail, but not if they didn’t enter the Capitol or do any damage.

    The big dog and pony show, known as “The January 6th Committee” was a very expensive taxpayer paid advertisement for the Democrats. They solved nothing and learned nothing.

    You mean the people who planned, financed and instigated the insurrection?
    It's called "conspiracy" and in every venue of which I'm aware, "conspiracy" is considered more serious than many crimes.


    AND

    False equiveillance is dishonest, No one involved in the BLM protests was trying to overthrow the government. Not even those gunned down by LE.

    Yes, I will if they do.

    You seem to think that what the J6rs did was no big deal, but what you keep glossing over is that had they succeeded, they would have installed Trump, and ended our 250 years of democracy. Thats not some trivial distinction.....motives matter
