think that you get to be the arbiter who sits in judgment of what is a protest and also what is allowed to be protested.
Your Code Pink Vag hat wearers stormed closed session in congress the year before, but you said that was merely protest. Your abortion advocates have harrassed sitting SCOTUS members at their homes including their families and neighbors.....while the case was still under deliberation....and you call that a protest. You think that you get to decide. Whose judgment is really clouded? Yours.
The truth here is that the ANTIFA people were prepared with fomenters who succeeded in getting people to wave flags in the capital. They were let off. Pelosi had advanced warning of a protest but specifically countermanded an order from the house official to deploy them ahead of time. i am fairly sure this was planned, and the media was ready to go with the story. Regardless, it was less of a protest than the Left did at the church next to the White House and the one i mentioned during an active session of congress where they disrupted the meeting by pushing their way in. It was also far, far less violent that ANTIFA and BLM riots. But you see a distinction based only on what cause is being protested.
