For all of 2020, protestors have been given virtually free reign to loot, pillage, burn and destroy. People who repeatedly demonstrated that they were textbook domestic terrorists, insurrectionists, and conspiracy nuts, buying into every ill-informed and downright fraudulent story of some poor innocent murdered by some cops, were lauded by the media and given a pass and praise by government officials from mayors to Senators.
But now there has been a change in administrations, and the story seems to have rather suddenly changed. The same jackholes who turned 2020 into year of loss, pain and flames now seem to be on the receiving end of the new administrations militarization of society.
Protesters in Portland and Seattle Shatter Windows and Light Fires
In Portland, Ore., lines of federal agents in camouflage — now working under the Biden administration — blanketed streets with tear gas and unleashed volleys of welt-inducing pepper balls as they confronted a crowd that gathered outside an Immigration and Customs Enforcement building near downtown. Some in the crowd later burned a Biden-for-President flag in the street.
Huh. I have vague recollection of many on President Baizuo’s side complaining about the use of “chemical weapons” against “mostly peaceful protestors.” I guess it’s ok now.

There have been a number of arrests. It will be interesting to see if *these* arrests stick or, as was all too common last year, the terrorists and insurrectionists who managed to get arrested were often simply released uncharged… and others were the beneficiaries of funds raised to bail them out. Remember this?
Kamala Harris-supported Minneapolis Freedom Fund bailed out dangerous criminals along with protesters
Harris not only provided verbal support for insurrectionists, she helped fund them. Hmm. Articles of impeachment, anyone?
