Why is it my place?
Because you said nothing when Hillary tried to overthrow the 2016 election, nothing during the summer of 2020 during the bombings and murders, and nothing later about them.
Just J6.
Your hands are not clean. Don't pretend they are, just because you want it to all be about Trump.
Okay, Oldbear, my first reaction is that this is just another repeated effort to deflect, which I normally have grown so tired of receiving. However, you often have a more deeper belief process, so I'm hoping that is the motivation. As for me, if there is/was evidence that the riots were motivated by the Clintons, Democrats, ANTIFA, Proud Boys, ACLU or Q-Anon then it should have been investigated then or even now and let the rule of law rule (for a change). In my opinion, the press both overreacted and extended the mania, whether or not the cause(s) had some justification. Crap, dude, I'm no Democrat and I'm not a blooming/bleeding liberal; but I am not a MAGA person either.
If Hillary helped plan those riots and instigated them then she should have been locked the hell up!! and at least the key lawbreakers with her.
I have a feeling that my response is not what you are looking for, so help me out here.
I'll confess to whatever I believe is the truth as it relates to any part you believe I may have played in that stuff, but that's all. Below is just a research article I found on the internet. In my opinion it whitewashes the overall period this went on, but it does give a small part of the tip of the iceberg which was made available to the public, if they chose to go find it.
" During the period between May 25th, 2020 and July 31st, 2020
- 8,700 protests occurred across 68 major cities.
- Approximately, 3,692 of these protests involved illegal but nonviolent acts of civil disobedience and 574 involved acts of violence.
- Some cities experienced a level of sustained and relentless violence and civil unrest during this time while other cities reported experiencing peaceful and lawful assemblies with minimal criminal or violent activities.
- It has not yet been determined why certain cities experienced larger crowds or higher levels of violence when others did not.
- Specific trends and similarities in relation to protester tactics, timeframes, and coordination were identified across most cities.
- Many out-of-state protesters were also identified by most major city law enforcement agencies and some also encountered paid protesters.
- The weekend of May 29th to June 1 st was the most violent weekend that most agencies experienced, and nationwide coordination was recognized between protest groups in major cities.
- Approximately, 16,241 individuals were arrested for criminal acts committed during the protests.
- More than half of the 68 agencies reported their District Attorney's Office elected not to prosecute protest-related cases and most cases nationwide continue to be dismissed by prosecutors.
- Police Use of Force was proportionate to the level of violence and civil disobedience experienced by every agency and law enforcement entity as a whole demonstrated tremendous restraint in their response to the 2020 protests.
Good morning BUDOS;
Here is my point.
The J6 events have been discussed extensively over the last five years. The actions, responses and so on have been covered as well as can be.
We know, for example, that prior to his speech President Trump offered to bring in National Guard to keep D.C. secure, and that Nancy Pelosi declined that action. This is important because it demonstrates responsible consideration by the President which his enemies refuse to admit, but which is established fact;
We know that President Trump asked protesters to march "peacefully", and that request was deleted by mainstream media, further confirming that Trump's enemies were maligning him falsely;
We know that for all the claims of 'insurrection' and 'sedition', Trump himself was never formally charged with those crimes, his enemies likely knowing already that the actual events did not meet the requirements. Yet again this demonstrates the accusations are not factual;
We know that many people who did nothing but protest faced legal harassment, and many of the sentences were well out of line for the actual offenses. Especially in light of how actual violence by leftist protesters was ignored;
We know that the only murder on J6 was the shooting of an unarmed protester, as opposed to thirty-seven confirmed murders by leftists in their riots. We know the Left burned down dozens if not hundreds of buildings, including police stations, while no building was destroyed or set on fire on J6. We know J6 was one event on one day, as opposed to over eight thousand coordinated riots by leftists. Yet hundreds of J6 protesters, many who committed no violence, saw severe jail time while very few leftists ever saw any sort of consequence;
We know that there was important evidence destroyed by the J6 committee, rather than let the public see it.
But the biggest hypocrisy is that the Left has made J6 its daily devotional, the bone which they gnaw every day, while the thousands of riots by the Left are ignored by the Democrats and the media, in hopes people will just forget those crimes. People like Sam and Oso obsess on Trump so much, yet have no interest in the crimes abetted by Harris and Pelosi.
J6 has been hashed to a fare-thee-well. It's long overdue to hold the Left accountable for its arsons and murders, and to require some measure of objectivity from those who can see no enemy by the sitting President.
