Well, it turns out some neighbors, friends, and/or family members are disturbed by the horrifying display of violence and defilement on sacred American ground.
Are these the same folks who cried all summer about how this country was founded on a philosophy of white supremacy, that systemic racism was and still is so entrenched in its fabric that it would never be eradicated, and that the only way to truly redeem our nation was to dismantle it or destroy it “by any means necessary” and start over? Did these neighbors, friends, and/or family members maybe avoid directly endorsing that message but still give it tacit approval? Or did they in fact openly disagree with it, potentially setting themselves up to be harassed, doxed, or simply shouted down by the first group?
These are honest questions. The way I see it, the first group can’t suddenly claim injury due to an attack against the same government and institutions they so vigorously opposed to begin with, and the second group has, at best, still zero justification to claim the moral high ground. Only the third group has room to object without looking like hypocrites, which is likely cold comfort if they’ve been belittled, threatened, or outright persecuted for months for expressing the exact same viewpoint re: Antifa- and BLM-afilliated rioters.
At some point we have to be realistic about the double standard here, because no matter which category we fall into, it establishes a very troubling precedent: Any group that can see logic in this wave of outrage when it’s completely inconsistent with all recent messaging and ideological rationale is a group that can be manipulated every bit as easily as they believe “the other side” has been.

She's been arrested, mostly because as I've stated a few times, she was stupid enough to document most of her antics and talked about what she was doing, live streamed what she was doing, and threatened other outlets.
