Can you help me understand the difference

Between peaceful protests and insurection?


One is riots trying to bring change to the racist aspects of our justice system.

The other is a riot trying to change the results of our fairly run democratic process.

Neither is peaceful it's just a matter of which one you're outraged about.

Both are insurrections. One was egged on and incited by a the president.

I find all of disgusting to be honest about it and I find the silence of the left POLITICIANS who decry insurrection, like Pelosi and brush off the insurection of the Portland rioters as a form of political protest . It's the double standard used for political gain that turns my stomach. it's like there are no principles and clearly no truth anymore. I wonder if the FBI will prosecute with the same zeal they did the capital riot folks to the Portland riot folks.

Side note,. I heard testimony last week from the Christopher Ray when some senators were asking about how people who were in DC on Jan 6 were getting knocks on their doors by the FBI? It turns out the FBI was doing some blanket sweep using cell phone data ,likely GPS , and if your phone number showed up in DC they came knocking on your door. Seems like a huge 4th Amendment violation to me. He was very dodged in answering this question on how the FBI used cell phones ,records and such ,how they got the data without a warrant and why would cell companies simply turn it over. If I was in DC on that day say taking my kids to the Smithsonian or visiting my cousins in the area and a week or two later I got a knock on my door by the FBI, well I would be pissed to say the least .

Yeah, it’s SO disgusting that a riot in Portland isn‘t being treated the same as an attack on our nation’s Capitol to stop Congress from finalizing last year’s national election!!!

The failure to look at them through non-partisan eyes is SO stomach-turning, right Nautical? :)

If you believe the rioters in Portland are all about bringing change to “racist aspects of our justice system” you’re insane.

Peaceful protest kill and injure private citizens on private property, and destroy private businesses' and homes, and occasionally a government building not in DC. An insurrection Kills and injures private citizens on Federal property, and does minor damage to public buildings, while scarring elected officials who are busy lording over their constituents.

Good luck with that
 
US Media = National/International Narrative
Local Media = By, Of and For the Local Community

That's why both the 1st and 2nd Amendments break down. Because they were both supposed to be the free and individual assembly by, of and for the local community, into a press with their individual right to free speech, and a militia with their individual right to bear arms.

But now, just like in 1770 and 1775, respectively, it's no longer about the local community knowing what is best, or having a say for their local communities, but letting National Media, Governments and Forces dictate alternative narratives.

I've been watching the local Portland, and Minnesota, media for a good year, and all the minority business and religious leaders challenging BLM supporters not to allow chaos tourists to 'get away' with things. And they have told people to 'call out' national media when they lie.

E.g., when Atlantan African-Americans marched on CNN after they reported countless, privately owned, buildings with minority businesses, as government buildings according to CNN.

This is the problem, front'n center.
