Had the insurrectionists been black or Hispanic in majority on Jan. 6th., I have little doubt that 1) they would have been massacred by the National Guard on the steps, and 2) there would already have been riots in the streets.

On the other hand, I am relieved as to how many of the “deplorables” (thank you Hillary) have been rounded up and incarcerated, but I also believe that the scenario would have been significantly different had the rioters been colored.

3. It would have been a bloodbath

Anyone that was arrested instead would have received a years long sentence. Not months.

...if those had been BLM, pride or trans flags. There would not have been any of them left. This is the party of violence and hate.

5. I hope you don't mind...

...but this seems like a good opportunity to remind everyone that we can practice our (true) patriotism by looking over the photographs in the link below and reporting any of the insurrectionists we might recognize;

These pics should be in every newspaper in the country.
