We didn't have the media abilities to spread a national mandate in those days, but cities invested in mask mandates and shutdowns all over the country.
As for rioting, you're still trying to engage a false equivalency between BLM and an the insurrection of Jan 6th. I don't believe in affirmative action, but I do know that the favoring of the white race was the way of country up until the civil rights movement. The college sex abuse thing does sometimes go to far, but we have to admit that we hadn't heard about it until women got brave enough to start screamin about it.
Trump is an idiot, so please don't refer to him or his admin as some sort of positive influence on anything. I do thank you however for complimenting my points.
Some cities had restrictions yes. They had no internet so any shut downs that occured would have been nowhere as extensive . Most folks were essential.
How are 300 riots in the summer of 2020 and the Capital Riot not fundementally the same? BLM took over government buildings in several cases and many more died on their watch than did on January 6th. As for it being an insurrection that's media spin. Not even clever spin. Historically most insurrections involve a lot more death especially to politicians and the ruling class. They typically involve longer periods of time etc. 301 riots one treated differently by the elites because it came to their door. Had that mob intended insurrection and murder far more would have gone down
Then what we kinda semi sorta agree on some stuff? Damn I didn't see that coming.
Trump can be an $#@! but I didn't need a friend or role model I needed a candidate who would do what he said he'd do for once. That's what he did. In three short yeras he elipsed Obama's poor man unemployment rate because he cut corporate income tax. Which is a hidden tax on the consumers as they are the only people that lose money when corporate taxes increase.
