How many people were killed and how much property damage was there as a result of the 1/6 compared to let's just say, the summer riots of 2020?

Do you think this is an apples to apples comparison? You may want to start there to help answer your question.
So why weren't those people prosecuted by Trump DOJ where they had jurisdiction (I believe they did on several incidents)? Send them to jail, same as these asshats at capital.

You're asking me why people who objectively burnt down property (some of it state property, not that it should matter), hurt, and even killed innocent people weren't prosecuted? Probably because it wasn't politically expedient, which you already know.

Unless you are flat out denying the actions I just referenced occurred. Is that what you're doing?
So sit down and quit squawking about the lack of prosecutions during BLM riots of summer, that is in part on the Republican executive.

I never said I denied anything happened, i said they should have been prosecuted.

Uh, what?

umm, wouldn't that be local city dem DAs job?

In the vast majority of cases, yes. I didn't bring that up owing to the fact this fella seems to be only to tackle one misstatement at once.
blaming republicans means he expected trump to be heavy handed and implement martial law? Yeah, that would have gone over well.

Where did I misstate, you agree there were cases that could have been prosecuted federally in your post. They didn't, but that's the commentary EVERY time 1/6 comes up - "well what about them blm riots, nobody went to jail for that" blah blah blah.

He's all over the place, I think he's drunk or something. Politics aside, Trump DOJ did absolutely did not have jurisdiction in the vast majority of these incidents.

So the summer 2020 riots that local blue states and cities refused to handle were Trump's fault.

Also, the democrat led House refusing to accept additional security for Jan 6 is Trump's fault.

Clearly the unbias rational take.

Cmon Tucker is clearly trying to downplay what happened on Jan 6th. Just because every second wasn't mass chaos and violence doesn't prove much.
The events of jan 6th were unacceptable.

They were also no where remotely close to what the left and the media have tried to make them.

It was about as much of an "insurrection" as Covid-19 was "naturally occuring and not made in a lab: trust the science".

The left and the media have traded on lies and misinformation, all the while accusing everyone who disagreed with them of spreading misinformation, and now are surprised when there is push back? Please.

And before you try to paint me as a republican apologist, save your breath. I detest both sides, I just hate one side a little more.

I have no idea, I have not researched which individual incidents would have fallen under their jurisdiction and why they were or were not prosecuted. Have you?

Furthermore, what in the hell does that have to do with the fact that the physical havoc caused by the summer riots was undoubtedly and undeniably more than that caused by 1/6, by several orders of magnitude? Other than to serve as a pure deflection, of course? Once again, you are the one who brought up prosecutions. And it's not clear why, at all.

Lastly, are you on drugs?

I agree it was the responsibility of local, state a s national branches to respond - including both Dem and GOP officials

Of course, that's why the entire thing was explicitly created by the powers that be on the left. What they do desperately wanted was any aggressive national response caught on camera that could be TWISTED into the false narrative of GOP led fascism and racism.

Trump didn't take the bait, neither did local PD leadership. But our cities burned as a sacrifice to the left agenda and that's a high price to pay.

Just like financial markets - the big risk from artificially smoothing over small corrections is that when the real correction does come - it's exponentially bigger.

The OP has a valid thought, although maybe not expressed in an effective way.

When BLM has a "mostly peaceful protest" in the streets where 95% of people do so in a legal, public protest…. The 5% of looters and criminals get pointed out by Republicans as reason to condemn the entire protest. The phrase "mostly peaceful " then gets used sarcastically on message boards such as this.

When Jan 6th happens, 95% of the protestors are non-violent, however still committing a criminal act (trespassing at a minimum). The other 5% are go beyond that - smashing windows, vandalism, etc. which gets played up by the media. Republicans point out that they are the exception and most people were non-violent.

It's 100% hypocritical. The democrats are guilty of being hypocritical in the opposite manner.

It sucks on both sides.

No

They aren't

Reality is I don't sympathize with those either.


Don't commit crimes.
And your chances of being shot by cops is greatly reduced.

My god people. Look at the utter destruction.

Truly a sad day for our country.



I see a pack of playing cards, a pack of gum. Two cartons of energy drink, and one of those Academy tri-pod fold up chairs.

These people were clearly there to destroy our democracy with these disgusting tools of insurrection. Definitely ranks up there with 9/11 and pearl harbor.

Can someone explain how Tucker showing cherry picked clips without violence is any different than what Conservatives accused Liberals of doing with the BLM protests? Conservatives ridiculed the phrase "mostly peaceful" protests endlessly all to turn around and do the same thing with Jan 6th. Do they think we didn't see the footage of them fighting Capitol Police. Hitting them with weapons? Multiple dead?

Did you not see literal months of Antifa ******s destroying ****, firebombing courthouses and assaulting random people in major cities across the country on a daily basis earlier that summer?

And she could've been easily subdued without lethal force. That cop is damned lucky he didn't hit someone else. There's no place in which that was a good shoot.

Yes, what she did was foolhardy. That doesn't make it a good shoot though. That cop should be in prison for murder.

The last two braincells that bounced out of your dome when you whipped your neck around to ignore an actual "threat to democracy" if there ever was one 6 months earlier. You know, where they firebombed a church across the street from the white house?

Do you think you have now made a valid thought and expressed it in an effective way? Cause if so, maybe get with the OP and try again.

BLM protests were an order of magnitude worse than Jan 6th. Multiple officers were left blinded, deaf and permanently disabled. Other officers we killed outright. Others lost their careers and many many more took their own lives watching rallying cries of defund the police.

Cops hit in head with bricks and hubcaps. Feces and urine thrown repeatedly on cops, first responders, military, and innocent members of the public.

And in BLM riots, the folks in the evening hours were 95% lawbreakers.

The Jan 6th protestors left peacefully after a couple of hours. BLM shutdown businesses, cities and federal courthouses for MONTHS.

Get the f out of here with any claims of hypocrisy. Dems are evil lying *******s. And they condone violence, death destruction and care nothing for this Country nor constitution.

"OP as a valid thought" is something that has never happened, ever in their posting history on TexAgs.

Ok, so in your opinion :

1. Mostly peaceful protest with legal action, but 5% did awful things = you wanting to condemn all of the people involved as horrible.

2. Mostly peaceful protest with illegal action by all, but 5% did pretty bad (but not as bad) things = downplay it, no huge deal.


That's hypocrisy. I'm sorry you don't see it.

Cool. At least I know where we disagree.

When will all you clowns wake up and realize this has nothing to do with Republicans or Democrats?!? They've got you fools so worried about party lines and not realizing that the deep state has stolen our liberty?

We are so focused on who is flying a Ukraine flag or who thinks boys are girls or whatever? They've divided our country and are plundering everything.

And I am certain we most likely would agree on anything. I don't pay dishonest, disingenuous games.

Interesting you said unsubstantiated but not untrue.

And its not a personal attack. It's simply based on the content and tone of your posts. I read people for a living and its my take on your posts.

You should avoid trying to summarize or reword someone else's post in an attempt at humor or cute points.

I always have a nice evening.
