Not a single J6 protester brought a weapon to their clambake, but Alex Pretti did to his. No J6 protesters had extra ammunition packed with their loaded handguns, but Alex Pretti did. While the J6 gathering started out as nothing more than a great big rally to support President Trump (that the FBI turned into entrapment), the resistance in Minnesota is planned, organized, coordinated, internationally funded, in conjunction with the knowledge and support of high-ranking state officials, with the sole purpose of interfering with law enforcement. Individuals motivated by hyperbolic, violent, reprehensible rhetoric, there to stop immigration agents from performing their legal duty.
The left celebrated Michael Byrd’s assassination of Ashli Babbitt and his acquittal. Metropolitan Police Department officer Lila Morris beat a woman to death with a stick, striking her repeatedly even after she was unconscious, a story almost no one knows about because the media sold an overdose story and crowd trampling as the cause of death.
Boyland apparently collapsed near the mouth of the western terrace tunnel leading into the Capitol, and initial reports indicated she was killed as a result of being trampled by the crowd.
Those reports were later contradicted by eye-witness accounts, various footage of the event, and an independent evaluation of the original autopsy that determined her death was caused by manual asphyxia — not the “accidental acute amphetamine intoxication” as the medical examiner originally stated.
Footage also reportedly shows Officer Morris using a stick to strike Boyland’s ribs and head as she lay motionless on the steps at her feet, according to a report in the Washington Examiner from 2022.
Despite the mass media and the left’s endless ranting about the deaths of five Capitol Police officers in connection with January 6th, no one seems to have had a care that no one was ever tried or even charged in those deaths.
Both Joe Biden and Hakeem Jeffries held speeches during the former’s term in which the occupant of the White House and the House minority leader stated that five Capitol policemen were killed on January 6, 2021 and Hakeem Jeffries having family members solemnly come up and read the names of “the officers who are no longer with us.”
But just think — the obvious questions arises: among all the protesters who were prosecuted (persecuted?) and jailed during the next four years, where were the murder cases? Why wasn’t any of them charged with murder? Why has nobody seen any murder trials (five? more?)? Why do we know about all the members of the “mob” rioting at the Capitol but nothing about the people involved in the far worse problem of assassination?
No one at J6 used a vehicle as a weapon, intentionally or unintentionally. No one at J6, while federal officers were attempting to disarm them (because no one brought a gun to the US Capitol, resisted arrest, restraint, and then reached back like they were about to pull that loaded gun on those officers.
Whatever training these “protesters” are getting, it doesn’t include even the most common understanding of how to behave when confronted by armed officers.
You simply do not pull a loaded gun on a federal officer doing his duty enforcing the law and expect to survive.
I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again. If the object goal is to put your protesters in body bags on camera, then that’s exactly a thing you don’t tell them.
Think for a moment about a common traffic stop, say for speeding, whether in America, in France, in Denmark, in Greenland, in China, or anywhere else — would any policeman look at you with gentle eyes if you parked your vehicle perpendicular across the road? How about if you ignored his order to exit the car, instead setting in reverse only to bound forward?
Good’s intention may not have been to hit any of the law officers, but it seems straight-out denial of reality to dismiss the bodycam of Jonathan Ross which shows him being hit, or shoved if you prefer, while the ICE agent has since been described as being in hospital suffering from internal bleeding. You think that may be exaggerated? Maybe, but: how is that different to what the Left is doing with the Left’s alleged victims?
Someone is sending these “protesters” out to obstruct armed agents performing legitimate law enforcement duties. They are well-funded, organized, and coordinated. Minnesota state officials not only know about this well-funded and coordinated illegal activity (it is against the law to obstruct law enforcement from legally performing its duty).
There is no comparison to J6 unless we want to delve into the left’s deliberate narrative deceptions in both instances that hide the truth, elevate lies, all for some perceived political gain.
