you're letting the pigs off the hook, do you think Biden or Trump would have had to say anything if the protestors were BLM protestors storming the capitol?

[-] Furbag@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

Doesn't matter if you fly a Trump flag or a BLM flag, if you storm the capitol to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power, you're an insurrectionist.

It's not complicated.

Yeah they would have.

Trump only allowed it to happen because of who was protesting/rioting.

Any other president or any other protesting group would have had their asses handed to them.

If maga tries this shit again, it’s going to get real lively. Btw I have my popcorn ready

My point is the police would have taken care of it without any input if the protestors were not far right.

Indeed, they still think of the J6 rioters as "Political prisoners" fools all of them
