They are a bit less picky about the white part. After all, there are ‘good’ black and brown people who run around wearing MAGA hats and don’t forget the ‘good’ Asians…
If that were the extent of the damage intended or inflicted, you’d have a better point. But in the Jan 6 insurrection, more than just buildings were damaged: people lost their lives, there were people threatening the lives of the sitting VP and the sitting Speaker, and were there at the behest and with the encouragement of the sitting POTUS, in an effort to overthrow the very foundation of our government: free and fair elections.Leftists literally bombed the Senate, and Bill Clinton let them out of prison.
But that's not nearly as bad as some guy dragging a lectern and another putting his feet up ...
It is also worth noting that the above-referenced people were a half dozen extremists. On January 6th, 2021, thousands of extremists marched on the Capitol. Hundreds of them broke into the building. North of 700 have been arrested/charged/convicted with everything from trespassing to seditious conspiracy.If that were the extent of the damage intended or inflicted, you’d have a better point.

I hope you understand the damage to your credibility by presenting such an obvious false equivalence.
Derec does not understand. He never has, and never will.
That can happen if there is credibility to damage. It's like giving credibility to Alex Jones.
Do you have any evidence that "LEFTISTS" of any sort are calling for violence based on the outcomes of this election. If so, please present some. OIherwisel, please play with your derailing hobby horse somewhere else.Leftists literally bombed the Senate, and Bill Clinton let them out of prison.

I guess I always try to give people benefit of the doubt first. But after sparring with the likes of barbos and Tswizzle here I’ve given up on those two. I do read Derec’s posts and often times see him trying to come across as reasonable and I try to engage his arguments with that benefit. But it’s getting difficult. And once someone loses credibility in my eyes I basically give up completely u less given extraordinary reasons to re-engage.
So I hear you say that FORTY YEARS AGO, “leftists” bombed a closed and empty building after delivering a warning to switchboard to make sure it was empty of people.Leftists literally bombed the Senate, and Bill Clinton let them out of prison.

no. He compared it to the dragging of a lectern and putting feet up on a desk. And to be fair those are mild things.So I hear you say that FORTY YEARS AGO, “leftists” bombed a closed and empty building after delivering a warning to switchboard to make sure it was empty of people.Leftists literally bombed the Senate, and Bill Clinton let them out of prison.

And that seems to you to be just as bad as thousands breaking into a building, with guns and hand ties, while it is ooccupied by government officials, and shouting about killing them, and even planning ahead to build a noose, in order to prevent the peaceful transition of power after an election that they lost?
LOL. Credibility? Did you see who you quoted?
OK. I’m confused. I don’t see where I called them evil in my OP. Are you saying that by calling them out for their violent rhetoric, I’m engaging in a call for violence? Not sure I follow your logic there.
My hope is that it is in fact an EC bloodbath with MAGAtard blood being spilled everywhere. Nothing could be more appropriate. But I'm hardly worried about general violence. There will always be the few crazies because that's simply natural selection at work. But our institutions will be prepared and there will not be another Jan 6.
