Why is the uprising of 1/6/21 worse than the months of rioting in the Northwest?

The BLM and Antifa rioters destroyed federal buildings during months of rioting. The capital uprising lasted less than a day. Why is it worse?

@SW-User 👹 Yes. It's ok to let liberals insurrect, camp out, burn buildings, ruin businesses, murder police... because, well, they're liberals!

@irishmolly72 Wisconsin takeover was less violent, overall peaceful, one might say. No weapons were carried, there was not really any property damage, no deaths or injuries, no looting, no theft, and the main difference is, that people were showing their opposition towards the Act 10 proposal and not trying to overthrow a government because they were not pleased by the outcome of a presidential election. There are BIG, very BIG differences.

@Somerset So were the BLM riots every night. Much more peaceful

Give up. You defend and excuse the indefensible

@SW-User From what I saw, the BLM protests were frustration fueled and in alot of cases not necessarily peaceful. Still, a key difference for me is, that the BLM protesters weren‘t trying to overthrow a government, but rather to correct flaws in the system. I do not say, that each and every protester who was there was carrying that believe in his mind while acting as they did, aswell as probably not every person who walked up to the capitol was there to harm, scare or damage. The difference for me is the intend of the protest itself.

@Somerset They were opportunistic riots and killing of completely innocent people. By lowlife hoodlums financed by the country's enemies.

That you try to justify it doesn't speak well to your character

@Somerset I see. So it's ok if liberals do it because it was for a "good cause".
