    Let me know when the GOP builds an entire movement around this turd. See: George Floyd.

    I imagine this person, if he exists, is unpleasant, but he probably doesn't assault pregnant women.

    But as criminology professor Justin Nix notes, “Given its level of serious crime, America has
    ordinary levels of incarceration but extraordinary levels of under-policing.”

    About four months after Trump re-ascends.

    You do realize that's because criminals have more value in many police communities than law-abiding citizens, do you not?

    The interesting part about the Libs of Tik Tok person is that they find people like this
    on the left *who are teachers or public officials* and who therefore have some influence.
    If you just found every left-leaning fruitcake the volume would be way, way, too high.

    The dude was featured at this weekend’s Trump rally. Trump is a/k/a the
    turd that the GOP has built itself around, btw.

    Not the point. Your contention is that the Justice system is too hard on 1/6ers. We’re they too hard on this guy? I think we agreed they weren’t on the dude who beat a cop with a Trump flag. Now how about this one.

    It’s easy rhetoric to say they were too harsh but I haven’t seen an actual case that bears this out.

    This guy was a featured speaker at the Trump rally? Me thinks you are using different
    definition of "featured." Once again, this guy will not be beatified by the GOP, and his
    supporters will not be allowed, encouraged and bailed-out if they spend months roaming
    the streets raping, murdering and pillaging.

    It is AMAZING that you can point to this turd and say "see, this [non-violent] turd is the
    poster boy for the J6 riots!!!!!" and ignore the literally THOUSANDS of brutal acts of
    violence committed by BLM. One NON-VIOLENT protestor paints the entire GOP as supporting violence? Hell, Rittenhouse wasted a pro-BLM pedophile and a communist. Big
    deal. All but a few of the people 'murdered by police' and supported by the Dems and
    BLM were complete pieces of shit.

    I'm afraid this tells me way too much about you and it's not good.

    Punishing someone for their views is different than punishing them for
    their actions.

    The "harshness" is the completeness. When close to 60% of BLM rioters who committed offenses are prosecuted even in the slightest, come talk to me.

    Meanwhile, where is the investigation and prosecution of the police officer
    who shot an unarmed protester? Does anyone argue that if it had been a white cop shooting a black person that it would have gone not only unpunished but uninvestigated?

    By the way, the latest death statistics show that black people are now
    nearly ten times as likely to die by homicide compared to white
    people, up from 8x. This is due to the homicide surge in large cities
    post-BLM. So it looks like the BLM and defund-the-police rioters have
    major blood on their hands, black blood. And this is largely because
    the crimes committed in those inner cities are not prosecuted and
    punished. Such is the result of "going easy" on crime. Why aren't more
    black leaders and black people speaking up on behalf of those dying?

    If you wish to prevent the actions, you must do the alternative, which is punishing for the views.

    This is one of the reasons things are beginning to fester fairly quickly now.

    If not applauded. That's the thing people get. "No duty to protect" in Castle Rock v. Gonzales is one thing. Using that to effectively justify criminal activity to eliminate those the community (through the police) does not want is QUITE another.

    Many Black leaders are sick of their own kind -- they just can't admit it or they're next. Which see: MLK.
