There was a police shooting of am unarmed woman. Now flip that to an unarmed black woman shot by police at a protest and what would have happened? A armed black woman attempting to stab another black woman was shot by police and crap hit the fan. 

Maybe it was a good shoot, maybe it wasn't, not a whole lot of info there. However if the races were reversed.....There would have been a whole lot of mostly peaceful protest and you know it. 

I don't need to flip anything.  That event stands all by itself.  There is no other event like it that has occurred in your lifetime in this country.  

Your preference to characterize the dead woman as some type of victim of murder is gas lighting at best. It reflects upon you.

You done? Good. Consider this. I never assigned a negative attribute to the race of people who partook in BLM riots like so many on here  have with Jan. 6. 

Well, if you still insist on talking about BLM riots when the topic is Jan. 6th because you can't talk about one without the other, then consider it considered.

So two disgraced disbarred lawyers decided to sue the Texas Dr for the abortion! 

I wonder if the Kraken lady and Rudi Van Helsing are going to get in on the action ??????

Oh, I can't wait for discovery and especially for the Supreme Court judges who deferred to be in the spotlight, because I can assure you their past indiscretions will be gone over with a fine tooth comb!

You assigned a negative attribute to their protest, calling it insurrection, while discounting the actual act of insurrection.  

So I am sort of wondering about all of the evangelicals out there who subscribed, donated or was fleeced into giving their money because it was prophesied that trump was ordained by God and he was definitely going to be re-elected! 

Are they going to ask for their money back and how much gloating will the preachers and conmen engage in ???????

Trump's campaign apparently is flush with cash but like Republicans say "it remains to be seen if he's going to share it or not" talking about mid-terms.  I think mid-terms is high on his agenda.  

Since money talks in our society and politics, my guess he's going to use it as leverage to prove he's still the leader of the party.  My desire that they dump him and find someone else is a bit diminished because of his campaign wealth.

Nope. Sorry. I didn't call either insurrection. Or said one was worse than the other. I also didn't make derogatory comments about either groups race either. I would never judge an entire race because of violent acts of some.

Have you ever read about the blind men and the elephant they were examining? 

You appear to be pretty much like that. You only see and interpret what you want! 

The Insurrection has nothing to do with anyone being shot. It's about a sociopath who doesn't understand the process of elections and the peaceful transition of power, because he's an uneducated moron with the instincts of a savage who appeal to people of the same inclination! 

Trump needs to be jailed not only for his crimes but as an example of democracy in action and a good example of a justice system working! He was never exposed to people like me in HS or he would have never turned out the way he did. He would have an allergic reaction to crime if he had met someone like me in HS. I would have scared him straight! 

He's a pathological liar and inveterate criminal and so obviously a blatantly despicable person, you would have to be exactly like him to not notice it or be repulsed by him! Just a totally disgusting human being! And obviously taught his children likewise! 

I would be really interested to know whether similar families were able to break the pattern eventually? Obviously his brother raised an excellent human being in Mary Trump, so it's possible. 

Taught his children hey? What did Biden teach hunter? How to smoke Crack and engage Russian prostitutes? Or at the very least how to not lose his belongings and keep track of his laptop?

Yeah. I'm sure in your HR department you are completely non biased depending on skin color right? Or political affiliation or whatever you assume about a person right?

Nothing like you making assumptions about someone while accusing that someone of making assumptions.  If you are put off by assumptions you shouldn't so obviously make and share them.

I really hope you weren't attracted by the smell and stuck your nose up the elephant's butt ????????

Yes. You are trying to downplay the significance of what happened on January 6th by continually conflating the attack on the Capitol and the disruption of the congressional certification of the electoral college vote with other protests that did not intend to, or in fact, disrupt a branch of government.  And the other protests were not based in some lie told by a man to explain his election loss...the violent attack on the Capitol was.
