Insurrection

 Repeated comments on Yahoo articles; "if it was an insurrection, why has nobody been charged with insurrection?" or alternately "it was not an insurrection." They also complain about BLM riots. "That was insurrection too." 

I do not know, I was in hospital, did not have access to Internet. I would watch game shows on TV, when daughter visited; listened to music channels. I would play "name that tune," with older music (1970s rock, 1960s R & B, music I listened to) and smooth jazz to fall to sleep to. The hospital volume control held by head did not have to be loud enough to disturb person in neighboring bed.

Not that those peeps knew that. Oy, listening to djt, volume so high, even with my headphones on I could hear it coming from their TV. One night I complained to nurse ~ the lady would blare her TV when she was sound asleep. The nurse said she would wait a bit. So I have to be kept up because nurse refused to lower the volume on sleeping woman's TV? Aargh.

So did not know much about the BLM riots. I read news about them once at home; do not think I watched any videos online. J6 was the first time I turned on TV news in many years. I prefer to read, not watch news. 

I do not know if there is a law labeled "insurrection." Charges might be rioting, disturbing the peace, unlawful entry, destruction of property. In the case of some J6 rioters, it was "seditious conspiracy" charges. 

Insurrection: a violent uprising against an authority or government. That may well describe BLM rioters. But it seemed more like peaceful protests turned violent due to outside agitation. Long Beach, CA for instance was basically peaceful, until out of town thugs arrived to break store windows and steal merchandise. Those types were not protesting police brutality, they were taking advantage of large masses of people protesting. I should not call them thugs; teenagers mostly.

J6 rioters did so under orders from the president. There job was to "fight like hell" to stop the 'steal.' That is prevent Congress people from doing their jobs; they especially wanted to stop VP Pence from presiding over the certification of electoral college votes. Due to the delay, they worked until 3AM to finish the job. 

Big difference BLM and J6. The kids that post those comments just out themselves as mawa racists.

They also ask "How come no BLM rioters were arrested." Or state it as a fact, not a question. And others reply ~ I think, 14,000 arrested. And others say "they get released, no bail, soft on crime." 

Q/T social, Carlson, Newsmax, djt, majority of GOP reps know how to sell propaganda ~ lots of buyers to spread their alternate facts and lies.
