Terrorists break into US Capitol Building

[Flap]

Because in reality "trying to set a police station on fire" was actually setting a dumpster on fire, and the police precinct building was not damaged.

Again you're either repeating other's sensationalized and made up claims without researching the issue, or legitimately can't tell the difference between arson and a violent insurrection. I'm hoping it's the former, as legitimately only Dreaven, two cronies and three of his alt accounts believe the January 6th Insurrection wasn't a problem.

This type of shit is why I don't engage with the argument of "BUT BUT BUT WHATABOUT BLM"

First off, two wrong don't make a right. Both things can be bad and how you classify one has no bearing on the other.

Secondly, you will never get them to accept the fact that 93% of the protests were peaceful because all they've seen is burning buildings on Fox or 4chan. There are endless propaganda outlets out there for them to browse and reinforce their confirmation bias with. Just look at all the wacko Youtube channels that Shaps posts videos from.

Third, you kind of need something that conservatives have a very short supply of, empathy, to understand the reason behind the BLM/George Floyd protests. A little dash of decorum helps, too, which barely anyone on this forum has.

I have all of the decorums.

All of them.

hold on, trying to set a dumpster fire... and setting the police station on fire is the take away of a success.. You cant do what you INTENDED to do, but did much worse... but are holding on to this is what we meant to do. Am i remembering it all correctly? so that's the collective minds think.. hell oh well 2/3rd's of the time we got something right.

Let's completely ignore the DC riots in January 2017 and the ongoing riots for the next 5 years. Business's burnt to the ground, police assaulted, baseball teams fired upon, city blocks taken over while murders and rapes took place inside "chop", State house overrun by leftist terrorists.

Don't for a moment even pretend that the left didn't start this and then pretend that the pendulum wasn't going to swing back faster and harder. This was all very predictable once the riots in DC took place on Jan. 2017.

Were you raised by parents? Like...at all?

"HE STARTED IT" has never been a valid excuse. Most of us learned this when we were five years old or so. Also, AGAIN, two wrongs don't make a right.

Some randoms did criminal things, so we decided to do criminal things and overthrow the government. It was justified because they started it. Yeah, that's totally sound Conservative logic.

5 years of Democrat terrorism is more than 2 wrongs, at some point people push back against the bullies.

Just standing there and letting Democrats kick people in the balls, over and over again, is not an option.

Really? Okay, let's go that route then. Let's assume that what you said is actually true and the protests weren't mostly peaceful(93%, overwhelmingly peaceful even) and that it's PERFECTLY FINE to retaliate to the actions of Democrat voters with attacks on the people they elected. Some really BIG assumptions here but ANYWAY...

The "5 years of democrat terrorism" is a retaliation to A HUNDRED AND FIFTY YEARS(post slavery of course, I'm generously not even counting that) of police treating black people worse than other races, murdering them with impunity, locking them up at disproportionate rates for the same crimes, etc. By my count they have a few more years of destroying everything, before the "standing up to the bullies" is over.

By the numbers from liberal news sources on the January 6th Capitol Riot:

Approximately 10,000 people gathered to protest in front of the building.
Approximately 2,000 people entered the building (20% of the original crowd)
Approximately 700 arrests were made (7% of the original crowd)

Therefore can we say that the Capitol riot was 93% peaceful?

(I’m not actually suggesting this, but my point to use numbers and logic like this and then call it “mostly peaceful” is insulting and disingenuous.)

How do you sleep at night if you believe things like this? So triggered.
