Anyone who turns a peaceful protest, march, demonstration into a riot with violence and destruction should be condemned. A riot is a riot whether it is protesters taking over the Capital building or taking over part of the city in Portland. Folks may label these differently, but the means were the same. The actions of both were the same. The reasons differ, but the results was wanton destruction, death and violence.Threads seem to have popped up since the second impeachment happened that are superficial criticisms of the Trump supporters that sieged the Capitol. I suppose some liberals are feeling empowered to do this. It doesn't do anyone any good to try to boost themselves up by trying to put others down.
I apologize on behalf of them for their behavior.
Those who supported these riots in any form don't need to be apologized to. All should be held accountable for their actions. There is no such thing as a good riot for a good cause or a bad riot for a bad cause. Although I have a feeling quite a lot of folks on this side think that is the case.
