How much longer can the double-standard for personal and group conduct continue?

Or, will it only get worse in the next four years?


Remember in 2011 when tens of thousands of Democrats surged on the Wisconsin Capitol building in Madison and physically occupied it for more than two weeks? We were told, "This is what democracy looks like."

Remember in 2016 when Obama was President and hundreds of B*M blocked interstate highways and violently accosted police (even k*****g several)? We were told, "To assign the actions of one person to an entire movement is dangerous and irresponsible."

Remember in 2018 during the Kavanaugh hearings when a mob of Democrats stormed the U.S. Supreme Court building in Washington, DC, and pounded their fists in rage on the door. We were told, "It's understandable."

Remember this summer's r**ts in major cities across the country when groups of Democrats marched in the streets, set buildings on fire, l**ted businesses, assaulted and even k**led bystanders and police? We were told, "These are mostly peaceful protests."


Remember when Democrats seized several blocks of the Capitol Hill neighborhood in downtown Seattle, declaring it an autonomous zone?Remember the guns ad deaths and utter destruction? We were told, "It's a block party atmosphere."


Remember when a crazed mob gathered after the Republican National Convention and attacked Rand Paul, a sitting U.S. Senator? We were told, "No justice, no peace."Remember how police were told to stand down, governors refused to call in the national guard, and Democrats paid bail for violent protesters who were arrested? We were told, "This is the only way oppressed people can be heard."


I have condemned violent protests and lawlessness every single time they've been reported. I condemn the actions of those who stormed the Capitol yesterday. But I refuse to condemn hundreds of thousands of peaceful protestors because a handful (52 arrested) chose to be lawless and to defy everything the vast majority of the crowd stood for. Conservatives are defenders of the Constitution, the police, and the rule of law. Because a relative few people decided to do something stupid doesn't nullify the concerns of the many.


The real culprit here? The mainstream media has been telling us for years that violence is the only way people who feel oppressed can be heard, it's the only way to get justice, and this is what democracy looks like. Apparently, a few who were in the crowd on Wednesday listened to them.


The inflammatory rhetoric of the Left caused this, and it's about time Democrats and the mainstream media took responsibility for dividing Americans and attempting to humiliate those who support the President or any conservative ideals. They have pushed people to the brink, even while claiming, "It's time for unity." It's time for careful reflection and change on all sides. God help us!

How soon the Media forgets. When there is a lull in the action, they try to create something. Ratings=$

Thanks for putting down in words what so many are thinking. The man in the White House was part of the cabal that targeted the Trump administration for four years. His calls for unity ring hollow and reek of hypocrisy.

well said plumbbob very well said we will never have unity when there is no equal justice under the law, and no equal reporting of both good and bad on all sides. But what can we do about it? Sure can't peacefully demonstrate or we would be arrested and face 25 years for i**********n.

IMHO the democratic process that those of us that served has a slightly different flavor than those who just enjoy the freedoms. We have been without a "leader" for over 60 years. Money and the media have been providing us with "politicians" all of whom are self serving. Disagree if you wish but the first thing they do is work towards their ree******n, otherwise they are out of a job, which ,by the way, has an absolutely incredible benefit package. the average citizen could work 45 years and not accumulate anything like that. One might ask why no leaders have come forward? fair question, they have no desire to be vilified by the media and political mudslingers that have polluted our system. I do not expect to see a leader come forward in my lifetime, I just pray one steps up for my grandchildren.

I am holding out for president Dave. Anyone remember this movie?


Bill Mitchell is the philandering and distant President of the United States. Dave Kovic is a sweet-natured and caring Temp Agency operator, who by a staggering coincidence looks exactly like the President. As such, when Mitchell wants to escape an official luncheon, the Secret Service hires Dave to stand in for him. Unfortunately, Mitchell suffers a severe stroke whilst having sex with one of his aides, and Dave finds himself stuck in the role indefinitely. The corrupt and manipulative Chief of Staff, Bob Alexander, plans to use Dave to elevate himself to the White House - but unfortunately, he doesn't count on Dave enjoying himself in office, using his luck to make the country a better place, and falling in love with the beautiful First Lady...
