Of course the above posted facts and statements are accurate. Protesting is of course intended to make people uncomfortable and make people listen to what they might not be exposed to or do not want to hear. Protesting is very rude.
For equivalence sake, please provide any examples of people committing criminal activity in protests and explicitly not being charged with it.
What would be appropriate? Let's say violence, destruction of property, violation of a secured area [i.e. trespassing into the capitol, an airport, courthouse, etc], assaulting police, murder.
For equivalence, let's try to distinguish potential federal crimes vs. local [state or city level] crimes.
My thesis would be that except for people not able to be identified, identifiable acts listed above customarily result in criminal charges. Crimes are not excused. Violence and destruction of property are not tolerated; these crimes as part of protests [by definition, riotous activity] are investigated and charged with crimes. [Just like we discover that voter fraud is continuously investigated and criminally charged when found, which is how know that it is not a serious problem.]
I would expect that local crimes may have a greater amount of people "getting away with it" than federal crimes, because of potentially a lack of will or resources on a local level.
I would also hypothesize no sane side consciously approves of violence, destruction, and death in the light of day. [There are of course a lot of people who apparently like to engage in violence and destruction.]
I'd also be interested in any mass events specifically directed by leaders or a particular group, which resulted in a riot [violence or destruction of property], where those identifiable leaders were not charged with incitement.
My thesis is that calling for Trump's responsibility for 1/6/21 is not out of the ordinary for any similar event and outcome.
Aside from that, clearly many people are treating 1/6/21 as something significantly different than "what the Democrats do," or "what the Republicans do," or even "what the democrats and republicans do when actually they all act and say exactly the same things."
Are there things about 1/6/21 that are significantly different than protesting the ACA, police brutality, or Al Gore trying to steal the presidency?
Why are Kevin McCarthy, Ben Sasse, Lindsay Graham, Mike Pence, or Pat Toomey saying that Donald Trump has gone too far or that he should be impeached?
Some thoughts:
1) The capitol is indeed different than any other protest area, protected by its own police force, a federally defined secure area which is the actual seat of American democracy?
2) Are there any other instances of elected leaders directing a mass of people to emotional action based on defined falsehoods?
3) Has any elected official in America ever directed a group of people to interfere with an election? i.e. is there ever an example of a mob being directed to destroy election results, swarm or interfere with the counting of ballots, or intimidate election officials or elected officials from declaring a set of election results?
4) Has an elected official in America ever directed a group of people towards physical action against other elected officials?
5) Counting and declaring the results of the federal election is a constitutional activity different than any other in American democracy, and attempting to interfere with that is fundamentally different from other protests?
6) Have any protests led by an elected officials carried threats of assassination or hogtying elected officials in advance of the event?
