We spent all summer watching as police subjected peaceful protesters to violent methods of crowd control. Why were there no rubber bullets, tear gas, etc? When BLM marched in DC, there were more armed guards in front of the Lincoln memorial than in front of the Capitol building yesterday. This was absolutely preventable.

First, there was tear gas, and in fact there were rioter(s?) shot by police. Then, you are comparing one protest to hundreds. There were tons of protests in Seattle where a group of a few dozen would go around marauding and looting and police would stand down and watch. Same here I guess.
