Crenshaw calls Biden out on disgusting lie



Biden: Police Would Have Treated BLM Protestors ‘Very Differently.’ Crenshaw: ‘This Is Disgusting And Divisive, Not To Mention Hypocritical And False’

On Thursday evening, President-elect Joe Biden, responding to the events on Wednesday at the U.S. Capitol, used the incident to inject racism into the discussion about what had transpired, tweeting, “No one can tell me that if it had been a group of Black Lives Matter protestors yesterday that they wouldn’t have been treated very differently than the mob that stormed the Capitol. We all know that’s true — and it’s unacceptable.”

On Friday, Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) denounced Biden’s use of the tragedy that unfolded at the Capitol, in which five people ultimately died, including a Capitol Hill police officer, one Trump protester who was shot by police, and three other people who allegedly died from “medical emergencies.”

“Not the time. This is disgusting and divisive, not to mention hypocritical and false. You said you wanted to heal the country. Actions speak louder than words,” Crenshaw tweeted.



And if you can't understand this,

The police DID treat BLM protestors differently. Below is a link to a good write up on PolitiFact. The main difference lay in the initial postures. Law enforcement assumed that BLM would be violent and prepared for that in terms of gear, numbers, and deployment. Whereas, it was assumed that the Trump protestors would be peaceful, which resulted in events playing out very differently.

Watch the video on the politifact page.

Sorry, Chicks, but it's the way of civilized society. It may have no effect but don't you think it's better than just calling people names?

Trump protestors weren't the ones who stormed the Capitol.

The Media Won’t Show You This Proof Of Trump Supporters Trying To Stop Antifa Thugs Wednesday

Videos and photos that have emerged from the event Wednesday all but solidify the theory that Antifa was actually behind the violent outburst at the Capitol building. It had all the hallmarks of the peaceful “Antifa” rather than Trump supporters.

Now, there’s even a video that proves Trump supporters not only recognized wolves among their flock but called them out and tried to stop them.

That sounds a whole heck of a lot more like Trump supporters than the narrative that they violently stormed the Capitol in an act of “insurrection.”

In the video you can hear Trump supporters yelling at “Antifa,” as thugs at the doors and windows of the Capitol attempt to break the glass. The crowd of Trump supporters sound incredibly angry as if they want the violence to stop.
