I have no idea. I was busy trying to keep myself and my family safe from Covid. But I can guess what your opinion is on that question. And before you say it, don’t forget that many of those images of “cities burning from BLM protests” were actually not from those protests at all. And lastly, I condemn unequivocally ANY political protests that turns violent regardless of how I feel about the issues being addressed.
Also, the BLM protests, whether you believe they were violent or not, did not involve a concerted effort to nullify the will of the American people as expressed in a free and fair election. That’s what happened on 1/6/21: a group of people used violence to try to stop the certification of an election because they didn’t agree with the outcome. Besides being the biggest case of sore losing in American history, it was profoundly undemocratic.
I was simply stating that in 2020 many of the protests that happened turned violent and even became riots and most people still listened to what the non violent protesters were saying.
Almost all of the Jan 6 protesters weren’t violet and only expressing their 1st amendment rights.
The idea these people were trump’s ace in the hole or a threat at all to the established order is fantasy and a democrat talking point.
I mean how was that more of a threat to democracy than the patriot act?
What do you think was the most violent protest in 2020?
