Ainsely Earhardt: You can't pick and choose which riots are bad

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

A lot more people should have been jailed over the 2020 riots. Looting is looting, and damaging property is against the law.
That "some people" on social media would cry all sorts of negative labels at this doesn't matter one iota. The law is the law.

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

Congress only cares about those victims of riots least deserving of sympathy: themselves.

Aside from the obvious ideological motivations this is another factor for the difference in reaction despite the summer 2020 riots having a considerably higher degree of violence. The 2020 violence wasn't happening in parts of towns where members of Congress live so it didn't directly impact them.

And of course just because it can't be said enough; the majority of people harmed or worse during the 2020 BLM protests were protestors attacked by police or by violent alt-right counter-protestors.

Is this counting or not counting the many victims, direct or indirect, of property damage?

Can't say I give a rats ass about property damage, typically covered by insurance companies any way, compared to human life. Obviously I don't condone it as a form of regular peaceful-protesting.

While that's not a verboten position in any way and I respect that, it's just important to note that people can be harmed due to property damage.
(That is all)
