I am not saying that what happened in Portland and other places was ok. But, there is no equivalency to what happened in Washington DC. Some were protesting in-equality in treatment. How they did it for some was completely unacceptable.Unfortunately yes - they did attack officers and were not arrested or charged or anything. I’m sure this didn’t hit the news anywhere other than local here in Portland. It was so atrocious that the entire swatt team resigned one day.
Totally ruined downtown Portland and now only in the last year 4-5 years later finally some sense of safety is being restored to downtown Portland.
Really sad to see.
However 1/6 was an attempt to overthrow our government and our constitution. Two completely different things. You cannot equate protest for equal treatment to an insurrection. That simply does not work, and it makes zero sense.
