I wonder what the numbers are for Democrats that don’t think protests need to be peaceful

Some of us said it protesting was good, violence was bad, whether D or R and they were excoriated on the "muhhh BOTH SIDES" thing.
But Jan 6th was a Mostly Peaceful Protest. |

Just think of all of the hungry children they could have fed this holiday season instead of funding a massive effort to hand out all of those “parading” tickets

They have hundreds more that will receive “tickets”
The Capital police who bore the brunt of the attack and the perpetrators who have and will receive prison terms would disagree with your gaslighting

Ross saw it was NOT mostly peaceful, which is why he reacted to John’s post. I had the same gut reaction, but I wasn’t sure if John actually believed that to be true or the post was sarcastic. Sorry anyone thinking that was mostly peaceful is blind, never saw a single video released or want to white wash it away like many on the right are attempting to do. Carry on with, as others have so accurately described this forum, the endless circle jerk. |

John said the "protest," not the riot, was mostly peaceful. There were 30 thousand "protesters" there on Jan6. It was, by far, by numbers, a mostly peaceful protest. |

John probably applied the same litmus test they used to describe the "Summer of Love" protests as "Mostly Peaceful"

Answering for myself; I do not agree with any of those being characterized as peaceful. They were there for a confrontation. Portland is perfect example. Violence is violence. Less violence does not earn an event the peaceful description. Half wrong? Kinda pregnant? Just doesn't fly. |

Police ended up dying and committing suicide shortly thereafter.
Lot's of people get charged w/murder when they participate in crimes even if they didn't pull the trigger. |

one died of natural causes. natural causes.
i am aware that more than some committed suicide after. i’m not aware of their psychological
records, i presume you aren’t either so we don’t know why. but if they committed suicide because of trespassers, then we need stricter requirements for who qualifies for federal law enforcement.

That is one of the stupidest statements, I guess the military better tighten up their vetting also Jim, maybe everyone could all benefit from your ability to identify those individuals who could possibly be severely affected by ptsd and might take their own lives in the future. You probably already have the winning powerball numbers too, man I wish I could see the future, what a gift. |
