Government property is insured by taxpayers

>93% of the summer protests where peaceful

I'm not sure how to confirm/disprove that statement. I'd posit that most protestors at the capitol were peaceful, but I'm not sure how to confirm/deny that either.

>mob had gallows and chanted to kill the vice president

Where I live "ACAB" is a trendy chant used to devil-ify police

EDIT: Also, is this not the same thing? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3217754/Black-Lives... - not sure how trustworthy this is

> molotov cocktails and hostage situation zip ties where found on the scene,

I have seen molotovs used at BLM protest

All this to say - it's not black and white; I also feel there clearly is some double standard going on here. I disagree with (what i think is) the premise of the capitol protests, but it does not strike me as that much worse than what people were supporting a few months ago.
