Key point in Mattis statement is he appears to think rioting that has wracked the nation just isn't a very big deal. 'We must not be distracted by a small number of lawbreakers.' Cotton view decidedly different. https://t.co/1oRxCEgCIe— Byron York (@ByronYork) June 4, 2020
Two issues. One, widespread assumption that demonstrators can do anything--block roads, etc--as long as they are 'peaceful.' And then there is the definition of 'peaceful' itself, which apparently can include significant levels of violence. https://t.co/zhcewLdX0p— Byron York (@ByronYork) June 4, 2020
Maybe he watches only the MSM. They hardly show any if the looting and burning at all. They show the “mostly peaceful” protesters. <p<
Do these young people think that some day they will look back on these protests as if they had marched for truly needed civil rights? Will they even know what destruction they gave cover for?
