[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC authorities did little to protect property during the last round of looting and riots. it's not just criminals, it's the potential for mob rule every few decades.[/quote] Yes J6 was bad. Do you really think the general public should have grabbed their guns and opened up on that mob?[/quote] Shooting masses of unarmed protesters isn’t a good look…but it IS exactly the sort of thing most DCUM’s could get behind - IF - it were the right sort of unarmed people getting shot. And the J6 crowd would definitely qualify. [/quote] I’m fine letting LEO defend the VP and legislators with deadly force. [/quote] What about the thousands of BLM protesters that surrounded the White House for 3 days in June of 2020, set fire to several buildings nearbys aq, seriously injured dozens of police officers and caused the secret service to evacuate the first family to the bunker out of fear that the WhiteA Atari House rwas about to be overrun ? Do you support force deadly force being used there, too? [/quote] The vast majority of BLM protestors were peaceful. Certainly the ones were the day when Trump ousted them violently. And they didn’t breach any federal buildings. And they aren’t traitors trying to overthrow the government. So…not comparable. [/quote] That’s pretty much exactly what I thought you’d say, so at least my read on you was correct. Was still hoping you’d surprise me with a moment of honesty and just say “I just wanted them shot just because they were Trump supporters”. That kind of honesty would be refreshing. It’s ok though. I know what you meant. [/quote] You don’t see a difference between what happened on 1/6 and the BLM protests? They were *inside* the Capitol. Where the VP and Congress were certifying the presidential election. Seriously? [/quote] I was at both places (working). Both were examples of angry people, wanting to be heard, getting out of control and having a tantrum over it. If you actually believe that a couple thousand unarmed people were going to literally take over the US government, then I guess it’s pointless to have any further discussion, because we can’t even agree on a baseline premise. I’m saying 2+3=5 and you’re saying 2+3=magenta. But just be honest and admit you’d want them shot because they were pro-Trump. I could at least respect that. [/quote] I didn’t think they be successful but they were certainly hoping to stop the certification. Some were looking to hurt Pence. It wasn’t a protest. It was a “show of force”.
