re: "G.O.P. Declares Jan. 6 Attack ‘Legitimate Political Discourse’" (The New York Times, February 5, 2022)
It's cute that the Republican Party have now officially given their stamp of approval to mob riots that are violent, destructive and bent on mayhem, euphemistically labelling them ‘Legitimate Political Discourse.’
Will these same Republicans now start applauding all the violence and other excitement some have associated with the Black Lives Matter and other expressions of ‘Legitimate Political Discourse’?
But I still think that attempting to overthrew an election by deliberately attacking government offices is a tad more serious than anything any other protest group has done in recent years.
The Republicans have now officially set an extremely low bar for what they will accept in protests by those who are displeased with any decision made by the US people.
Way to go, violently disordered and unlawful Republicans!
