I'm sure you were advocating for the silencing of BLM leaders who were encouraging violence during recent months too...
- praestigiare 6y agoAbsolutely, where that occured, and unlike Trump, both Facebook and Twitter has no problem suspending and removing accounts of BLM advocates when they made calls for violence.
- jtdev 6y agoSean King... Still on Twitter, advocated for violence in the name of BLM for months to his > 1 million followers.
- jmcgough 6y agoThis was a coup attempt that involved breaking into congress to stop presidential succession. Are you suggesting the two are comparable?
- one2know 6y agoSo presidential succession was stopped and congress was killed? No? I think you are making shit up.
- nobody9999 6y ago>So presidential succession was stopped and congress was killed? No? I think you are making shit up. And so if I walk into a bank and demand money, but I don't get any, it's not a bank robbery? That's an interesting legal angle.
- chasd00 6y agoi want to add again, this wasn't a coup attempt. You dilute those words and they become meaningless. It hurts the people who have lived through and suffered from real coups.
- AnimalMuppet 6y agoThis was at least very, very close to what they term an "auto-coup" - a coup by a leader who lost an election, thrown in order to remain in power.
- chasd00 6y agothis is a fair point, the acceptance of BLM calls for violence, rioting, and looting by the media and Democrats makes this a much smaller event than it would have been otherwise. What happened was a failure of adequate planning and execution by the police to control an unruly crowd.
