Perhaps the attack on our nations capital has numbed everyone to outrage.

If that attack by thugs, and as you read facts about those arrested, many armed to do serious damage physically, it is apparent those wearing their "colors" to insure we all knew on whose behalf this was done, were n fact, thugs.

National outrage because a mayor made a one day stand. I think not. If a vicious, in excess of 300 million dollar attack, on our actual capital is condoned...there is no more conscience to spawn outrage.

I know this gets deleted. We may not speak ill of this attack, or the leader on whose behalf it took place, or the total complete bold face lies told to motivate it.

Meanwhile those who were behind the attacks, cheered them on, still defend them, and the liar who took us there are now asking for "fairness" in public discourse. They feel it is a right to verbally attack, inspire violence based on nothing.

The multitude of threads and posts discussing skin color, and ignoring the why......And the absolute forced silence on Jan 6 events is disturbing. Of course, all Americans decry violence in any name, except it appears to promote a HUGE set of lies and the person who invented them.. That is allowed.

Their premise is an affront.
I will go so far as to agree that the capitol attack was despicable and indefensible.

However, before addressing that disaster, let's address the other "attacks" in chronological order:

Rioting in LA after Rodney King
Rioting in Ferguson Missouri
Rioting in Baltimore
Attacks on cops in NYC
Rioting in Atlanta
Rioting in Minneapolis

Does anyone see a pattern here????

I hope you are not insinuating that those "events" were OK because the perpetrators were of a specific ethnic group, but the capitol attacks were the sole instance of violence by a different ethnic group.

It's a good thing I wasn't in charge, because in all those events, including the capitol attack, instead of allowing them to burn and loot, I would have sent out the national guard with orders to shoot to kill. Would probably only need to wound 1 or 2 and the rest would get the message loud and clear
