The left knew it was in self-defense, they just wanted the riot for political gain.
Just like the latest Club Q shooting that is immediately labeled a hate crime motivated by right-wing intolerance. No actual facts needed.
The riots were directed by the Demonrat Party.
This is political violence, like the destruction of the no abortion pregnancy shelters.
The left applauds no kill animal shelters, but can’t tolerate them for humans.
