(1,699 posts)My point on how police handle protests in no way indicated that the protests or the treatments are equal. My point is that left wing protests seem to bring out a much more violent response than right wing protests. The right tried to claim the seditionists were really BLM and Antifa people trying to make the right look bad. Do you think that if a bunch of people of color and leftists attacked the capitol like this group of right wing traitors did that they would not have been met with more violence. I understand in this case Fat Donnie and his minions were doing their best to hamstring the Capitol Police and that has to be looked into so it cannot happen again. Do we need to support the capitol police sure but again just throwing money at it without the determination of the proper solutions to be implemented isn't the best idea. Though this was generated by 1/6 it doesn't mean they can't take a wider look at the operating procedures overall. Besides as somebody pointed out the negative votes didn't make a difference anyway. A lot of time politicians use a particular vote to make a point when they know they are going to lose anyway.
