The site has become the flashpoint of ongoing conflict between authorities and left-leaning protesters who have been drawn together, joining forces to protest a variety of causes. Among them: People against the militarization of police; others who aim to protect the environment; and some who oppose corporations who they see as helping to fund the project through donations to a police foundation.

Sad (for you) that no one here will defend them. I think, however, that a domestic terrorist group could scare up more than twenty-three people

An interesting aspect of this is that while there is a state law against "domestic terrorism" in Georgia, there is no such federal law because of opposition to it by Congressional Republicans, largely because the vast majority of incidents that would qualify as domestic terrorism are perpetrated by the GOP base (e.g., Jan. 6). Moreover, Congressional Republicans went ballistic after a 2009 DHS report (correctly) identified the threat of right-wing extremism.

Meanwhile, just last night Tucker Carlson spent his show again trying to portray the Jan. 6 insurrection (in which over 1,000 people have been arrested) as peaceful and supported by the Capitol Police.

What this teaches us is that conservatives believe that criminal activity is domestic terrorism if it involves liberal causes, but it's normal, patriotic tourist activity if perpetrated by Republicans and investigation thereof is treasonous.

Of course the FAUX/tRump faithful refuse to watch real journalism so they'll believe Fucker Carlson's propaganda (lies) hook line and sinker.

Watching you criticize anyone for whataboutism is like watching Trump criticizing others for lying. Whataboutism and projection are your (and other conservatives) two most frequently used debate techniques. Without them, you are effectively rendered speechless.
