Compare the raw numbers. Are you good ng to say more people were killed on J6? That more LE were assaulted and injured? More property damage? You ALWAYS deflect away from that.

" It's also stunning you draw no difference between 11,000 protests based on known ongoing prejudice, versus an insurrection based on bald-faced lies."

Oh, so the families and friends of those can take comfort that their loved ones were killed in a noble cause. They shouldn't even feel bad, right?

I guess killing, looting, arson, vandalism, attacking LE officers is all good so long as it's in the name of a cause that Danforth supports.

When we break down the numbers - people killed, police assaulted and injured, lost livelihoods, property damage, etc - the sum of the 2020 summer riots were exponentially worse.

By that logic your vote against McCain/ Palin is because you are a sexist who couldn't stand the thought of a woman (back when you were able to define woman) being a heartbeat away from POTUS.

You know what words we didn't see from the left when talking about CHOP /CHAZ?

Secession or insurrection. The whole thing was glorified even by the mayor herself - it has a block party atmosphere that could leave to a summer of love.

I didn't vote for Joe Biden. By your logic that means I'm scared of white men.

You race baiters are exactly what you accuse your opposition of being - you are flat out racists.

Well, since Biden's handlers mostly kept her hidden, likely because they were embarrassed by her, she only had a fraction as much time n front of a microphone than Trump did during his first term.

Don Lemon got fired from a low news standard media outlet.

#164. Wasn't that conducted on Musk's platform?

O'Keefe does better work, but that's beside the point. When convenient, lefties like to assert that independent or citizen journalists aren't "real" journalists. That's exactly what Lemon is right now. And he does very little of it. He has a podcast that very few listen to.

" 30,000 times in his first four years"

Trump does lie a lot. He also embellishes a lot. That WaPo lie tracker' methodology was so bad to be almost worthless. It was calling expressions of opinions as lies. Every time thst Trump repeated himself for what the tracker initially counted as a lie, it was counted as a new lie instead of repeating an existing one.

But, you do love your unthinking talking points, so there is that.

Everything is not binary, Alexandrite.

But, other then all of that, these two incidents were EXACTLY the same. / s

#158. What is it with all of you lefties sucking so bad at equivalence? He didn't "pose for a picture" until after the threat was Eliminated.

Also, this is pure deflection. Acid attacks often result in horrible lifelong disfigurement. She showed zero concern about the liquid she was doused with. That doesn't mean this was staged. It does however lend credence to the claim that it was staged. Nobody died and nobody was injured in this incident. The shifter was almost immediately removed and wasn't armed with anything else. 2 died in the Trump assassination attempt.
