Literally none of this is in any way comparable to storming the nation's capitol building to overthrow the results of an election.

I'm not comparing the actions/crimes. I'm comparing the police response.

The comment I responded to, which claimed there would "rivers of blood" if leftists tried something like this. Where's the evidence of that?

And let's not forget that a protestor was killed by police yesterday.

"protestor" who was storming the capitol to overturn the election while elected officials were sheltering in the building.

Not a protester; A rioter and an insurrectionist.
