You're missing the point.
One was ignited by cops unjustly killing a man.
The other was incited by a sitting President based on bs.BLM protesters had a very valid reason to protest and was a result of dirty cops.
Trumpsters are protesting based on lies fed by Trump.One can be justified regardless if you/i agree with it or not there is a cause there.
The other is simply unjustifiable.Imo.
This pretty much sums it up. To add to it, one happened. Yeah, maybe democratic politicians could've asked for calming, however trump outright shouted for this to happen minutes before. Heck, even calling people down to a rally for this stupid stuff. There was no voter fraud, its the most long shot attempt at trying to stay in power, its absurd.

Watched Wonder Woman 1984, and thought it was a great, fun, no brainer, action film. Came home to read reviews completely ripping it apart saying how bad it is. And the thing is, I can’t disagree, but I still really enjoyed it.
I found it ok, I said good but not great. Admittedly I didn't find it as fun/enjoyable as you maybe. Again, not bad, just felt it could've been better. Maybe I'll rewatch it in a few weeks/months.

Rudy Guiliani tried called Sen Tuberville DURING the riot asking him to delay the vote another day.. only problem, he called Senator Lee (UT) by mistake who released the audio!!
Senator Tuberville? Or I should say Coach Tuberville. This is Rudy Giuliani, the president's lawyer. I'm calling you because I want to discuss with you how they're trying to rush this hearing and how we need you, our Republican friends, to try to just slow it down so we can get these legislatures to get more information to you. And I know they're reconvening at 8 tonight, but it … the only strategy we can follow is to object to numerous states and raise issues so that we get ourselves into tomorrow—ideally until the end of tomorrow.
I know McConnell is doing everything he can to rush it, which is kind of a kick in the head because it's one thing to oppose us, it's another thing not to give us a fair opportunity to contest it. And he wants to try to get it down to only three states that we contest. But there are 10 states that we contest, not three. So if you could object to every state and, along with a congressman, get a hearing for every state, I know we would delay you a lot, but it would give us the opportunity to get the legislators who are very, very close to pulling their vote, particularly after what McConnell did today. It angered them, because they have written letters asking that you guys adjourn and send them back the questionable ones and they'll fix them up.
So, this phone number, I'm available on all night, and it would be an honor to talk to you. Thank you.

This virus mutation is gonna burn through our lazy population, it's scary to think about.
The 'doubling rate' is also scary. Right now I think it's about 6 weeks, and its at 3,000 a day. So by the end of February it could be 6,000 a day. Where it gets scary is in early April, the tail end of winter, could then be 12,000 a day?

Biden is entitled to any inauguration he wants. Period.
Shoot to kill.

I actually think he'd have been perfect in Dicaprio's role.
That I can see, yeah. Leo was great, but Tom Cruise would've nailed it as well.

Wouldn't put it past them that its a deep fake.
A guy on GMA brought up the fact that 'More people have died at the trump Riots than Benghazi'

A Capitol Police officer who was hit in the head with a fire extinguisher has died. I think he was on life support the past 24 hours.

In the first news report video James posted earlier (had trouble quoting on my phone) my favorite segment is about how grocers are using your data. As someone who works for a predominant player in the, ahem, data industry, it’s quite humorous to see how this has been happening for decades.
Would be interesting to watch. Yeah I remember when those 'supermarket cards' came out, it was a thing. Save money by being a member. lol, years later I learned its just so they can keep track of who I am (age, gender, buying habits) but also sell that data (age, zip code, approx salary/am I cheap or do I buy nice items).
