To draw attention to police violence against minorities. What was the purpose of the capitol riots: To subvert election results, undermine democracy and disrupt the normal peaceful transition of power established by our rule of law. All at the behest of the President of the U.S. So no -- not the same thing at all. Just now, Seventy_Yard_FG said: Actually more people died as a result of the BLM stuff. More property was destroyed. More people died during WWII and more property was destroyed. So? One has nothing to do with the other.

The riots last year were also historic, it just didn’t all happen on one day Theyll be remembered probably more than the Rodney king riots

February 20, 20214 yr I love how this thread has turned into "what about BLM?". I hope the terrorists use that as a defense.
February 20, 20214 yr Just now, Paul852 said: Probably not. But even so, still not as bad as an insurrection that led to a second impeachment Doubtful. They are on equal footing in terms of memorability But in terms of actual damage, the BLM riots stand out much more 1 minute ago, Paul852 said: I love how this thread has turned into "what about BLM?".

February 20, 20214 yr Just now, Paul852 said: Whatever you say. But you don’t question the fact that there was physically more damage caused by BLM
February 20, 20214 yr 4 minutes ago, Seventy_Yard_FG said: Then why did you bring up what the purpose for the riot was? Because the purpose is important in what it is trying to achieve. Just like the civil rights movement in the 60s was important to give black people access to the same facilities (public buses, restrooms, education) as everyone else. Yet that movement had violence and people dying as well. It doesn't mean that those participating in those marches were all terrorists or somehow not legitimate. On the other hand, the capitol riots had a purpose to undermine our electoral process and the legitimate transfer of power - based on outrageous lies ginned up by the President and his enablers. I can't help you if you have a a hard time differentiating. But then again, Trump did say he likes the uneducated.

I mean first you say BLM had a good purpose and then I point out that it didnt then you say the purpose doesn’t matter and then I ask you why you brought up the purpose in the first place 🙄 Just now, Paul852 said: I mean, yeah, that's how words generally work. Well I’ll keep an eye out in the George Floyd thread to see if you’re using that word in there

February 20, 20214 yr Just now, Paul852 said: Sure. Insurrection still trumps it (see what I did there) The fact that you almost **** your pants because people broke into a building Trumps the multiple cities burning down and people dying this past summer?
