I'll take the conservative crazies over the liberal crazies anyday.
The liberal crazies aren't waving their guns around.
Or storming the US Capitol trying to throw out the results of a free and fair election.
How soon and how conveniently we forget.
The leftists crazies just burn down cities and random businesses. They also do wave guns and fire them, and DO shoot people. And somehow they managed to do that in 'mostly peaceful' protests.

Joshua Ziminski fired the first shot in the Kenosha insurrection that ended with the Kyle Rittenhouse shooting.

Retired Police Officer David Dorn was shot and killed in another BLM- Antifa insurrection.

And you conveniently forget they took over the Wisconsin State House, which the democrat leaders fully supported. Which indicates either (or both) they weren't 'crazies' or the democrat leadership were the 'crazies'.
That is in no way an excuse for the riot that happened on Jan 6, but a very big indication of hypocrisy.

Here's the deal. What happened on Jan 6th should never have happened. And it was a terrible event which it is correct to pin and blame the right-wing for. For me, and for millions of others who watched as this unfolded, my thoughts were 'NO! Don't do that! That will not help anything and make it worse! Don't stoop to their level. We are better than that!'
However, the reason, and the only reason, it is being hyped up as an 'insurrection' is blatantly political.
Realistically, if you can think that way, what was the end game if this had been planned? Do you REALLY think that the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers had some master plan to take over the government? If you do, please explain exactly how that would go down. Do you REALLY think that Trump planned it? Please explain how you think that would have gone down.
And it still puzzles me how the only person shot and killed in this riot was an unarmed woman, Ashley Babbit, who could have easily have been detained, and the person who killed her has faced little, if any, disciplinary action or punishment for his actions. He shot and killed someone, when there was no immediate threat of bodily harm to himself or anyone else, as is shown by video EVIDENCE. Why this double standard?
And tell me how, to this day, the majority of the people in this country believe, according to at least one poll,

that there are questions about the 2020 election that have not been sufficiently answered, yet the 'investigation' into the Jan 6th riot did not in any way address that issue. In fact, they completely and totally avoided any references to it, and excluded anyone from their 'committee' that might have addressed that issue.
