1. We don't know, yet, who was responsible for the violence at the Capital on Wednesday. Don't be surprised if it was some leftist infiltrators that were trying to stir up trouble.
2. Regardless of who was responsible, notice that NOT ONE Republican has condoned the violence that occurred there. ALL of them are calling for those guilty to be prosecuted.
3. The same cannot be said for Democrats with respect to violent leftist groups. They were quite happy defending the violence committed by BLM and Antifa last summer. https://www.conservativereview.com/28-times-media-and-democrats-excused-or-endorsed-violence-committed-by-left-wing-activists-2649778552.html
4. I am not justifying the killing of the Capital Police officer. Whoever is responsible should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. However, What about those who killed cops during the riots of last summer? Once again, Democrats downplayed that violence while trying to play up this one example. The following link gives a listing of those officers killed and injured as a result of the leftist violence as of July 31, 2020. At least 30 more officers were injured in riots in Philaderlphai just last October. Where were all of the Democrats and their sycophants in the media condemning these attacks on law enforcement? https://www.louderwithcrowder.com/riots-by-the-numbers-police-casualties-people-killed-during-peaceful-protests https://nypost.com/2020/10/27/30-philadelphia-cops-injured-in-riots-over-police-shooting/
I am sorry, but after this past year, leftists have no moral grounds on which to stand to condemn anyone for engaging in violence. Leftists ignored, excused, and even encouraged violence all last summer and into the fall. Attacked anyone who condemned that violence and wanted it ended. Now have the gall to be outraged when people who are alleged to be supporters of Trump use the same tactics that leftists spent last year defending?
Once again, those of us on the right are being consistent in our position. We condemned the violence, rioting, looting, ect., of last year and we are condemning those show stormed the Capital this week. We don't don't base or condemnation of violence on the basis of the politics of those committing it.
In the history of Trump rallies, how many of them have been violent? How many of his supporters have gone from his rallies and tried to break in places that they were not supposed to go? How many of his supporters attacked other people?
The fact of the matter is that participants at Trump rallies have been much more likely to be the victims of violence aim at them by the likes of Antifa and other far left groups than they are perpetrators of violence.
It also would not be the first time that extremists have tried to infiltrate gatherings of conservatives in order to discredit them. Back during the Tea Party Rallies there were problems with that as well until the Tea Partriers started following the radicals around with signs denounce them as not being part of the movement.
Let's add one more element to this. There are estimates that there were over 100,000 people in attendance at the protest on Wednesday. However, the reports are that there were only a few hundred that actually stormed the Capital. So, it is only a VERY small portion of the protesters that actually attacked the Capital.
There are also reports that Antifa sites were encouraging their members to go to the protest specifically to stir up trouble.
Finally, look at the result of the storming of the Capital. That became the story instead of the actual reason for the protest itself. It also took the focus off of the reason Republican Representatives and Senators were objecting to the counting of electors from certain states.
So, who won as a result of the storming of the Capital? It certainly was not those of us on the right. It was the Democrats and their sycophants in the media who are given the perfect excuse to ignore the substance of what was going on in Washington that day and were handed yet another excuse to attack those of us on the right.
Given all of this, I believe that it is reasonable to question how many of those who stormed the Capital were actually left-wing agitators trying to discredit their opposition. I am not saying that there were no Trump supporters involved nor do I care what the political persuasion of those people are with respect to punishment. ALL of those who stormed the Capital should be prosecuted for their lawless behavior. However, it is not unreasonable to wonder just how much of this was caried out by Trump supporter and how much of it was actually outside agitators trying to discredit Trump.
