Where Are The Riots?

The SCOTUS opinion on Roe v Wade was leaked to anger the masses. We had threats from leftist militant groups like Jane's Revenge and Ruth Sent Us. Protestors demonstrated in front of the homes of conservative Chief Justices in obvious atrempt to intimidate. Chuck Schumer's comment that such a decision would unleash a whirlwind was followed up by a failed assassination attempt on Kavanaugh.

Wasn't Roe v Wade supposed to be the red line in the sand? They promised to unleash Hell on America, and yet...

Sure, there have been assaults and some property damage, but nothing like the mass destruction of the George Floyd riots.

Since SCOTUS delivered its decision, the militant left’s reaction seem muted to me.

Does it seem that way to anyone else? Or is it too early to say?

Let me think on it a while🤔
I feel certain i can come up with a great conspiracy theory.

George soros went to all the thousands of people out protesting and paid them to keep it down a notch. Because rioting looks bad.
Yes, that's it.

I'm sorry you won't have a whataboutism to use since the violence hasn't happened.

Whataboutisms are powerful arguments.

They point out that your riots are ok, but their riots are not.

@Thinkerbell no one ever, anywhere/everywhere i look, condoned the riots in the summer of 2020.

They were not my riots.
I am a proponent of peaceful protest.

@Carla well they were mostly peaceful riots according to CNN

"no one ever, anywhere/everywhere i look, condoned the riots in the summer of 2020."

Of course they did.
Have you never heard of the DAs that didn't prosecute many of the summer 2020 rioters and looters?

And how many of the summer 2020 rioters were released without having to raise any bail?
And were any of the summer 2020 rioters were held in jail for a year and a half without trial?

ACTIONS, Carla, not empty words.
