Why Cowardly Republicans Got Hysterical about the Capitol Riots

Over the last six months, Black Lives Matter (BLM) and Antifa riots caused two billion dollars in property damage, killed at least 25 people, and injured over 2,000 police officers.  Rioters occupied and burned a police station in Minneapolis.  They attacked a federal courthouse in Portland every night for months.  In Seattle, Antifa set up an “autonomous zone” where five people were murdered, including two teenagers shot to death when they drove “too fast” near an armed checkpoint.

Senator Kamala Harris applauded the rioters.  In June, amid the burning and looting of large swaths of Minneapolis, she said the riots were “not going to let up, and they should not, and we should not.”  Then she raised money to bail rioters out of jail.

Seattle mayor Jenny Durkan called Seattle’s Antifa autonomous zone a “summer of love” before five people died.  Two months after the riots began, Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley called for more “unrest in the streets.”  Vice President Joe Biden would not condemn the rioting for weeks.

Along the way, “progressive” district attorneys have avoided prosecuting rioters.  “Insignificant” crimes like arson, looting, and assaulting a police officer do not land a rioter in jail.  Often, D.A.s refuse even to charge them. When serial rioters commit more serious crimes, such as throwing a Molotov cocktail at a police officer, charges are reduced or dropped.
