Doesn't mean much or even anything what you think. considering you were ok with the summer of love riots and deaths occurring. Fake outrage...
Was there any single person that summer who could have put a stop to the rioting by telling everyone to go home? But then refused to do so until hours later?

Any single person? The police just let it happen because of their POLITICIANS. Day after day. FOR MONTHS. They took over police stations. Give me a break daisy. What one governor or mayor requested the guard.

Ok I dont know whether you are a conservative Christian that just cant bring themselves to vote for Trump or you are a democrat that professes to be a christian with the exception of supporting abortion. Perhaps you should do a little more research on what went on that day ,and also illuminate the hypocracy. The fact that Liberals rioted on and off for yrs prior to Jan 6. Harris bailed out rioters and supported them in the anarchy. That makes you a hypocrite for not pointing that out. You failed to bring up the fact that Trump offered Pelosi the national guard and she declined .You didnt mention the neglect at all on her part that very day.Also listen to the entire speech .If you already did,than take notes .You will come up with a different view .Look at what is going on in NC . Those are blue state areas suffering because of Harris failures .I Know libs are big on identity politics, but just because she checks two of your boxes doesnt make her rt for the job .
You are confusing things that did not happen in DC on Jan 6, 2001, with things that did. They are not relevant. @wing2000 has reprsented a good knowledge of what happened in DC that day, where as you are lost in the lies of Trump's allies.

Yes, the insurrectionist riot in the Capitol was ended by a single person tweeting, “Go home”. He could have done this at any time but waited until it was clear that it wasn’t going to work.
The police just let it happen because of their POLITICIANS. Day after day. FOR MONTHS.

As you know, the people have the right to peacefully assemble and protest. The police did not let rioting happen; they did put a stop to each riot - which were not necessarily the same people who were protesting earlier in the day. Militia groups like the Proud Boys would show up, then Antifa would clash with them. There were also opportunists who showed up for looting - which the police promptly stopped.

Separate protests took place over a period - 9,000 in various places. It was not a single incident lasting MONTHS.
They took over police stations.
How many, fot how long? When the right wing Bundy-led militia took over the wildlife refuge for months were you outraged by that? Analogous?

You know that governors control their own state’s National Guard, right? They use their discretion whether or not to sic the military on their own citizens. Remember Kent State? That should not be done lightly.

There was no insurrection. It was mostly peaceful

No they did not. They took over whole neighborhoods in several cities.

That is right the governors did nothing...

The attempt at insurrection was not successful, this time. The plaza rally was entirely peaceful but the riot in the Capitol was not (Tucker Carlson's video of empty corridors notwithstanding.
They rioted day after day for months.
That misrepresenting the situation. Peaceful protests did go on for months, but sporadically by various groups, not continuously by the same actors. The riots were even more sporadic than the protests - nobody condoned the rioting.

Depends on how you define it. Yes, differnt neighborhoods were briefly taken over by different groups.
In various places also.
As I already mentioned.

They put a stop to the riots without calling out the military on their own citizens - contrast that with Trump's violently & forcibly clearing Lafayette Square of genuinely peaceful protestors so he could have a photo-op holding a bible upside down.

Liberals/ Dems are full of DEI.... That doctrine is what liberals hold to. A bold admission that refuses to look at issues, or events equally. Rather everything is equity. Which is bias admittedly employed in all things. That is all this is. January 6th was nothing compared to the summer of love...

Diversity, equity and inclusion? Oh the horror! ^_^

Yeah, pretty much, we favor non-discrimination. This isn’t news.

Straw man characterization. Also a bit muddled.

Everything is not equity - how would that even make sense?

Equity is bias in all things? I have to wonder if you understand either equity or bias since that is your conclusion.

J6 was the attempt to steal the election from the duly elected candidate, a treasonous coup d'état while the BLM protests were people seeking to hold police accountable for deaths they caused. Truly different things in scope, intention and results.

Equity is not equal. that's why it is biased...

Can you say in your own words what “equity” is? Can you say why, i. e. in what way, it is biased?

Because it does not treat everyone equally obviously....It is biased.
You still have not said what you think “equity” means to you. You have said it is “biased” because it is not “equal”.

It is like saying that allowing a seeing eye dog into a restaurant but not your pet Fido is biased against you and Fido because you are not being treated the same. Liberals and their ilk say it is equitable because it allows the blind people to function independently nearly the same as a sighted person.

Right a different term for a different practice.

No, it is like treating two blind people with their guide dogs unequally.

Again, what do you think equity means? Different but related question: what do you think progressives mean by the term?

How so?

Yup. Mike Pence is an actual genuine Christian, so ofcourse Trump wouldn't care.

January 1 ;

"When Pence explained, as he had before, that he did not believe that he had the power under the Constitution to decide which votes to accept, the defendant told him that “hundreds of thousands”ofpeople “are gonna hate your guts” and “people are gonna think you're stupid,” and berated him pointedly, “You're too honest.”

Not treating them equal, to make for equity in their eyes of bias.
That doesn't answer the question. Again, what do you think equity means?
