Not much out there and this article helps explain why

The Associated Press seemed to struggle with the concept that a black supremacist had killed a police officer at all, tweeting Monday that Evans died “when a car rammed into him and another officer.”

It’s all reminiscent of the Pulse Nightclub shooting, when authorities just couldn’t discern why a man who said “I did it for Islam” did it. Or the Mall of America stabbings, where the first charging documentsdidn’t list a motive, though he would go on to confidently tell the judge he was answering “the call for Jihad.”

Or when CNN claims, “White supremacy and hate are haunting Asian Americans,” despite no evidence that anything other than prostitution played a role in a sick and sex-addicted man’s March massage parlor shootings.

This is word salad. Meaningless.
 
To the contrary. I should have posted this in media bias in hindsight

No idea what the whining is here. Did the Jan 6 terrorists not fly actual flags identifying who they are with? Do we not have reams of video of them stating their goals? Why they’re doing what they’re doing, etc?

The “narrative” here is that the right has spent decades insisting it would be “others” who would launch the kind of attack they did against our democracy on Jan 6 so ya’ll are dancing as fast as you can to move on from it.
 
Not surprising from The Federalist, but this is one of the worst attempts to diminish the violence of some and elevate the violence of others right down ideological lines.

Pathetic really.

If the opposition wanted to attack there would have been bodies stacked up to the steps. Instead, it was a tear the goal post down kind of frat toga party that got out of hand

Lol, not at all surprising that you guys are trying to find a way to blame muslims for the Trumpist attempted coup.

How dumb and delusional does someone have to be to think a black muslim is going to raid the capital to help overturn an election to keep Trump in power? Sounds like someone who would try to blame the holocaust on the Jews as a false flag attack.

Yikes that's nuts.

I can’t tell if you’re expressing pride in the idea that Trump supporters could have staged a much more effective terrorist attack or not, I hope not but in any case we know why they were there. They told us repeatedly. Their leaders told them why they were gonna be there, and what they had to do. Repeatedly.

It was no attack.... Mostly a peaceful protest

Yeah, I get the 8000000th iteration of this “joke” but the problem for you is *you* did insist those peaceful protests were violent, but the below was a peaceful protest.

Exactly. All I heard from the MSM was how overpowered and understaffed the Capitol Police were and how everyone feared for their lives and yet amazingly they were able get control of the situation with no lives lost on their side, even as they were so overpowered and understaffed and how the “insurrection” almost took away our democracy. Give me a break.

Careful with that image, we have plenty on the right who think that officer died of "natural causes" thus it is not murder thus the attack on the Capital was not an attack.

Just saying, you are not arguing with people on the right who think what happened in that image is wrong.

An NYPD officer was attacked by several men in the Bronx Monday night as onlookers recording the struggle egged on the suspects.



And in Los Angeles

Okay, and? You just established that cops being killed during a violent assault is just a toga party kegger or something as far as you‘re concerned. Do..do you care about *this* cop? What’s the problem here? Which “gotcha’ are you using to own me right now?

Yes, and and unless Trump said the words “sack the capitol and take hostages” we can’t come to that conclusion but but every Democrat everywhere at all times has said they are open borders and want us to remove all fencing and security cause someone gave water to a Mexican once.

The Trump cultists are very lucky more of them weren’t killed outright during their treasonous attack.

They did break into the capitol building.

Had the Nation of Islam tried that, the would have been shot when they broke through the barricades
